CmaC gets his first win and Joey causes HF to ignite by netting a hatty.

AZ has been off since Saturday. Screw you, NHL Scheduling People.

 

[ca5150]

Why do we bother putting the lines in the GDT when there hasn't been a morning skate, meeting with the media, scratches announced or anything else. So basically it's always wrong...


Better see some big time scratches and Boll back in. If Clarkson is in again, I am going to be furious. Really hoping for RyJo to be in the pressbox and/or Murray.

Your grandfathers were so young as you and they never sucked. Remember it. Start to win!
Go Jackets! Boll GWG

 

[DarkandStormy]

Someone has to be injured on the blue line for Falk's "emergency" call up. Probably Savvy since he didn't play the last 17 minutes on Tuesday.

Actually, two have to be injured to meet "emergency" requirements. Connauton was extra D on Tuesday so he's presumably healthy.

My guesses are JJ and Savvy.

Side note: University of Phoenix field or whatever it is called may not be the ugliest sports complex in existence, but its top 3.

Young men at war for years. Temptation to suck rises. Don't ask, don't tell. Never forget.

These late games always suck, we'll see if Arizona makes it easy on me and thrashes us in the first period.

I don't have faith in this roster to beat any team right now.

If there's one team to beat it's AZ. They're 1-5-1 in December.

 

[The Jones Zone]

Johansen healthy scratch

[ndd17]

What we have w/o Johansen in this season? 2-0-0?

 

[cbjfaninmo]

Johansen healthy scratch

 

[EDM]

It will be interesting to see how the forwards are lined up without RJ. Dubie moved up to first line and Foligno to second line center? Or Campbell to 4th line center and everyone else moves up?

 

[DarkandStormy]

We're going to play Boll over Johansen good lord, roll out the tank pics.

 

[ReggieRed]

Hmm...this just went from "get to bed early" to "must-see TV".

 

[MAHJ71]

Savard out tonight.

Sounds like JJ will be a game-time decision. If he's out we'll have to play Falk.

As happy as I am to see Johansen scratched, having our best defender out and Prout/Boll BOTH playing is not going to be a fun sight.

 

[CBJx614]

My guess.

Jenner-Dubinsky-Foligno/Saad/Atkinson
Hartnell-Wennberg-Atkinson/Saad/Foligno
Calvert-Karlsson-Saad/Foligno/Atkinson
Boll-Campbell-Clarkson


Foligno, Saad and Atkinson are all interchangeable.

 

[DarkandStormy]

Does Falk recall become non-emergency if he's scratched?

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

Rumor has it they showed up to the Arizona arena in this. Amazingly, everyone was able to fit in without Joey

*sigh* ****.


Only a matter of time until we get a drunken snap from Matthews at a party after a game saying he's coming to Columbus.

Is any credit due to posters who called Tortorella a clown show?
