If you stayed up to watch this terrible Jackets team lose to the 
Oilers, you’re a certified sicko.

So are the Jackets officially in tank mode? They even f'd that up last year! Although I think Pascal is a better choice for tank mode.

Pretty quiet regular season rink until the playoffs roll around. It's actually like that in all the Canadian markets. American crowds are definitely much more energetic and louder.

Thanks. I tried my best
A game is 3 periods, but for whatever reason we think it is 2. -33 goal differential in the third period (+5, -2 in the first two frames).

I did, but I spent most of the last part of the game wondering if it would be stupid to do a quick fly in/out to NJ for the Devils Stadium Series game in a few weeks.If you stayed up to watch this terrible Jackets team lose to the
And Bemstrom just isn't very good in the NHL.
I was away and missed the game.
Just looking it up on moneypuck they have the xG for each line like this:
Fantilli - Jenner - Roslovic .274 xGF 1.199 xGA
Gaudreau - Sillinger - Chinakhov .163 xGF .116 xGA
Kuraly - Danforth - Texier .71 xGF .245 xGA
Johnson - Voronkov - Marchenko .909 xGF .224 xGA
This is strangely almost exactly how the numbers looked in the Devils game. The Fantilli-Jenner-Roslovic line getting smoked. Sillinger's line hanging in, and the other two lines putting up really good numbers.
Is Jenner's line getting harder matchups? I'm not sure I'd want them getting harder matchups. A rookie, a bad defensive forward, and a guy just returning from injury.
You tell me if this is how the lines have looked by your eye.

Eye test only - Sillinger line was getting the hardest matchups. Other than when the 4th line would go up against the McDavid line for faceoffs in our end due to last change.
Fantilli line can’t get in the zone. The pace of play doesn’t mesh well for them, IMO. We need Fantilli in space in the middle of the ice, not waiting for the puck along the outside. The best the line looked was when Fantilli was essentially going to coast to coast.

Oh wow... I had to step away for an hour and missed the 3rd period... For the first two periods I liked all the forward lines actually, I wasn't really paying any attention to matchups. That Jenner line had a couple nice chances, my favourite was when Roslovic forced a turnover at the offensive blueline and setup Fantilli beautifully, just what you expect from Jack
Fantilli was hustling and the Oilers broadcast was kinda hyping him but tbh I didn't like his game, all hustle and not much to show for it, seemed to kinda fight the puck all night. Anyway I would imagine their numbers would've been OK through what I watched... I imagine not so much in the 3rd... The CBJ first two periods 77% and 79% xGF... 3rd period 0.45% .... how do you even do that after a very good 1st period and downright dominant 2nd... I mean yeah, I had a bad feeling when they scored no goals in the 2nd but WTF
Mostly agree with NC’s response. Eye test told me all 4 lines and D were active on the forecheck and support of same especially in 2nd period. The 3rd period felt like EDM turned up the pressure a little, like CBJ (especially the D) forgot the easy/crisp exits that were surprisingly evident during first two periods, and then when CBJ did get into the O-zone, they stopped shooting the puck. At one point late in the 3rd, CBJ had 3 SOG, despite trailing for much of the period. The lack of puck possession and scoring put too much pressure on CBJ in the d-zone. Of the three EDM goals in the 3rd, Elvis had a decent chance at stopping only one.Oh wow... I had to step away for an hour and missed the 3rd period...

Just felt like the best forecheck in 2 seasons dried up in the 3rd.
the rule is basically straight forward. He got pushed and he was going down. Played rec hockey for 20 years and once you start to fall there is only so much you can do
I respect Hyman either way. Not like we wouldn't our guys to skirt the rules if they can.
That's a cool Mike Foligno pic by the way.
And what was his "he was very good" based on? Did he create chances? Did he win fights, all regularly? Did he have any dangerous shots? Did his play without the puck help the line? Fantilli and Jenner played very good but I didn't say it about Jack. One played average.

Fantilli-Jenner-Roslovic are just 3 dudes on the ice at the same time doing 3 different things. No synergy
1 of my biggest pet peeves with Gaudreau at this point is that he’s often OVERLY “creative” while playing, unless it on a breakaway or during the shootout where he’s seemingly often OVERLY “simplistic”.
