They are skating circles around us right now, but we are getting some chances.

 

[pete goegan]

Sympathy pains for Colorado... there's like 5,000 people in that arena

Snow storm.

 

[Zoo16]

I'm sure if CBJ were in their position, our crowd would be just as bad.

 

[NotWendell]

DAMN LUCKY to get out of that period tied. Yuk!

 

[Fro]

this game could cure insomnia

 

[Zoo16]

As slow as the Jackets looked, that period flew by.

I think we actually had the bulk of the possession and some decent pressure. It was just a few turnovers and some blown coverage. Although from a coach's perspective, that is the worst thing, and rightfully so, because it doesn't matter how well you play the rest of the time if you're going to give up the puck in your own zone like we've been.

it did- just came back from a power snooze

IF we make the playoffs Bob better have a 0 goals against or we are 4 & out the door.

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

Jackets came out in the second againt the Wild and really took the game to 'em. Hope they're cooking up something similar for tonight.

 

[Robert]

I sort of watched that first period..... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Whatever, we need to get at least 2 goals now!!!

I hope we don't wait around untill the third period to get motivated... it's not like this game as any significance....

 

[Robert]

Snow storm.

True.... Those damn mountains suck!!!

 

[Robert]

7-7 shots and the Avs don't seem to give a damn.... if we lose this one I will be more pissed than normal... lol

Score two goals and they'll fold

 

[Zoo16]

A little more jump by both teams this period. Jackets passing worse than in the 1st.

 

[MFRONE]

Jackets having serious trouble connecting any passes together.

 

[Robert]

Bob is on the puck as a magnet....

The CBJ are showing little desire to score... can't win without at least one goal, and for gods sake don't wait for a shootout!

 

[CaliBuck]

This game is a snooze...It's only 7 here, I feel like napping.

 

[JacketFanInFL]

One thing that is interesting to me with all these board battles is that we are consistently outmanned.

For example, if we have two guys battling on the boards, they always have 3 or 4.

It can be good if we actually win one, but just an observation I guess

 

[Zoo16]

DMac with a great feed to Gaborik. One of those will have to go in.

 

[MFRONE]

How did Gaborik miss that?

 

[Robert]

How did Gaborik miss that?

He's old...

 

[JacketFanInFL]

I don't think I will make it to the 3rd tonight, eyes are heavy already. Plus the Apple TV/GameCenter live is jumping all over the place.

This is just a terrible game so far. We look slow, but Colorado is fast and unskilled.
