Jeezus, when I posted this I had no idea.

The Jackets have lost something like 14 straight to the Hawks. It's ****ing crazy. I guess that means we're due for a win, right? If we can at least keep it close for the most part ( the majority of the games against these guys have been close the past 2 seasons ) I think the CBJ can find a way to sneak out a point or two. Bob has to have another bounce back, though. Can't afford to have him look like swiss cheese again.

 

[Dr. Fire]

Jenner out. We are screwed.

WTF?

 

[DJA]

Hide the women and children tonight.

 

[Jackets Fan]

Jenner out. We are screwed.

Dammit. Just our luck

 

[Jackets Fan]

So they get Keith and Crawford back for this game, and we lose Jenner and Gibbons. Unreal. As if our chances of victory in this game weren't already slim enough.

Why stop now?
Nothing left to do but Believe!
Jackets win four to two.

Wow, and I thought I was optimistic I hope you're correct. Go Jackets!!!

 

[cbjfaninmo]

Our injury list is....critical. Go Jackets!!

It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog.
That said, here's OUR dog...

 

[EspenK]

Sad but true

It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog.

Bravo. I hope the age of the dog was intentional!

Still looks like it could chew through an achilles if it had to.

 

[Jyrki]

hope johansen wakes the **** up and play some real games, and we get to see him set up some sweet skille snipes

Well our dog still looks happy at least

Yes, completely. And yes, absolutely!

Is the dog's name Lucky?

Won't be able to watch because during college football season, that takes precedence, even during bowl season. I will be able to watch games (even those that don't involve us) that don't conflict with bowls or NFL playoffs until football is over.

That being said, this will be a real test for us. Chicago is a really good team, and it will not be easy beating them, even playing at home. Just two seasons ago the Hawks won the Cup for the second time in four years. That is how good they are.

If we can beat the Hawks, that will be a big statement for us and will go a long way towards getting us our own shot at the Cup.

Either that or Murray.

They're not on the same line, so...odds are low.

if you're not going to bother watching the games, I wish you'd save yourself some embarrassment and refrain from "analysis"

Wennberg scores tonite.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Nationwide United Center will be very annoying

 

[Jackets Fan]

Wennberg scores tonite.

Yeah, I'm actually getting that feeling too.

Nationwide United Center will be very annoying

Yes, there will be a ton of red in the crowd. But it won't be OSU red.
