GDT: 2023-24 season game 22 LA Kings vs Columbus Blue Jackets @4:00pm 12/5/23

[Buddy The Elf]

I feel bad everyone shits on Columbus. It can’t be that bad!

Ohio is the worst of the 34 states I have visited. I've only been to Columbus once and it was not a memorable experience. Cincinatti was worse from my memory. Second on my list of least favorite states is New Jersey.

What is so bad about it?

Cincinnati during the recession was just as bad if not worse than Detroit. Everything seemed abandoned. Nearly a ghost town. Havent been back since though.

Looking forward to watching Fantilli.

Kekäläinen should be fired ASAP.

 

[FSL KINGS]

Hockey!!!!!

What is so bad about it?

Nothing really, if all you want to do is work, sleep, occasionally watch some hockey, and finally die later on.

What is so bad about it?

I've never been there, but from what I've heard there are all kinds of drug problems and very little to do (as far as entertainment goes).

 

[Faterson]

As a James Thurber fan who worked on a book biography of his, it's sad to hear all that trashing of Columbus! Well, he was essentially a New Yorker (no pun intended), anyway.

 

[Steve Zissou]

I've met at least 15 or so friends and co-workers who grew up in Ohio, namely Columbus and Dayton, but 100% of them left Ohio and would never go back for any amount of $ (unless to visit family).

standing in their seats plus 2 standing middle fingers

truly the best ovation

He looks over to the Columbus bench and all he sees is:

 

[Little Psycho]

4th line is not the same without lizard. Need him back asap.

that sounds perfect

Wonder which Blue Jacket to watch , you know , for that trade deadline deal for the playoffs ?

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Here We Go Kings Here We Go!!!Personally like to see a blow out to fatten up the stats

 

[Faterson]

... but at least if anyone wants to watch a top-notch Columbus-themed and sports-themed Hollywood comedy-drama, based on a James Thurber play, and starring the legends Henry Fonda and Olivia de Haviland, watch The Male Animal:

The Male Animal - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

It's 81 years old (goodness!), but I think it shows convincingly even today why college football will always be the no. 1 priority for sports fans in Columbus, and why the Blue Jackets can always only aspire to be (at most) the no. 2 favorite local team over there.

(Also, it's astonishingly topical, centered around political correctness and cancel culture, even though those terms didn't even exist back in the 1940s.)

How about Marchenko

Johnny Hockey having a rough go of it this year, arguably not even in the top-5 for players with a "John" variation as their first given name. I'd go:

1. John Tavares
2. John-Jason Peterka
3. Jonathan Quick
4. John Marino
5. John Carlsen
6. John Gibson
7. Johnny "Hockey" Gaudreau
8. Johnathan Kovacevic
9. John Beecher
10. John Klingberg
11. John Ludvig

It's a bit like me showing up to a hot-dog eating contest, eating 3 in a minute and vomiting into a planter, then trademarking the moniker "Bobby Hotdogs".

Sure, there were a couple guys who ate less hotdogs, but one of them was a child and the other one was John Klingberg.

 

[chris kontos]

We do owe the present intense application of the slashing penalty to johnny goodreau and his crying ass victim whining
So hes got that going for him

Just another lollipop kid in a man’s league.

And f*** Ohio.

Completely forgot that guy existed.
