You didn't realize how prescient this comment was when you made it.

I hate it when sh*t like that happens. Obviously, I was expecting Elvis to start.

 

[pled]

you gotta get off your canon guys.

I'm glad the team as new fan but old guys would remember the years of shit this org been trough.

both Jarmo and Torts are working to make this never happen again. even after pretty much all the media put Columbus at the bottom of the power ranking, the team is still in playoff contention even after this lost.

There have been much worst game in the past. sure injury sucks but it's part of the game.

You gotta calm down with the salt.

 

[Grouchy]

I think it's safe to say Tort's said his piece and it was the right thing to say at the time in the moment but Torts and the rest of the team knows they blew it in the third period, Jones took a penalty and we gave up a goal on the PP, and Foligno taking a penalty in overtime did not help.

Can't put it all on the refs but point made.

I wonder if Torts watches the English Premier League and how they "use technology" i.e. VAR and how everyone loves it so much ...

 

[Fireball23]

It’s ****ing beautiful

OUTSTANDING he let into them.. Eff em all!

 

[Cyclones Rock]

Torts is f***ing awesome!!

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Torts is right

but you also don’t lose your goalie if you don’t blow a 2-0 lead in the third period

 

[The Jones Zone]

Anyone recall 3 years ago, in Raleigh

Jackets got called for delay of game on an icing, because Nutivaara's laces where cut

Nutivaara couldn't stay on the ice with cut laces, but the ref still game them delay of game

The ref who wouldn't let them change but instead gave them the penalty......

 

[Jyrki]

With the rotten luck this franchise has we might as be located in Cleveland.

More than one thing can be true at once.

Aww. That hurts. But really, most of our guys are in Columbus, and I don't count the Browns as bad luck, they are just stupid. But hey, they fired yet another coach so, yay?

 

[CBJ goalie]

I follow and cheer for two teams; they both carried 2-0 leads into the third period, and they both lost.

**** this night.

 

[Cowumbus]

Remember when the clock paused and we lost to the Kings? feels like that

we blew a 2-0 lead, you can’t do that. At the same time we blew a 2-0 lead with an AHL roster so.. meh

 

[Cowumbus]

We’re giving up when we’re 6-0-4 in last 10 and as close to a play off spot as ever this season ?

6-4 not exactly great.

 

[stevo61]

6-4 not exactly great.

16 out of a possible 20 points is "not exactly great"? I mean whats that a pace for...? 130 points over an entire season? Bunch of losers

 

[KCbus]

6-4 not exactly great.

6-4 isn't exactly great. It's also Enron accounting.

Because we're not 6-4. We're 6-0-4. That's a difference of four points in ten games. Or two extra wins.

We can argue until the cows come home that the point system is stupid, but we've earned 16 of the last 20 possible points.

Why is everyone saying "get another veteran goaltender" ..."oh no, the house is burning down"

You don't just have Merlikins but you also have VV who is currently in his 5th pro season against men. Sleeping on your own dogs.

**If you want to try someone else rather than Kivlenieks that is as VV's numbers are a bit better today.

 

[OscarsCards]

Went to sleep after the 2nd. The best part of this is Merzlikins with a zero TOI gets an OTL with 1 SO goal against effing amazing. That doesn't happen very often. And why he's still here and not playing for Monsters?

You want to come in here and trash the guy who comes in and faces 1 shootout attempt cold from Patrick Kane among everything else that happened in this game?

If you can't see the difference between laughing and trashing you shouldn't read the forums.

Perhaps using the correct smiley would be in order.

Big grin Emoticons and Smileys :D, :D, :-D, :-D, :D

**** this night.

Both of my teams' last games involved ref f*** ups of some order. (CBJ/Chicago, Preds/Pens the night before that). It's annoying.

 

[OscarsCards]

So what did Korpisalo get? It's a muscle cramp or something worse?

 

[JacketsDavid]

Hopefully Korpi isn't in too bad of shape.

But those things happen when you start a guy virtually every game. Before Torts blames a bad call for him getting hurt, he should look himself in the mirror.
