Need two points tonight. Time to create some separation between us and the Pens/Rags to lock down a top-3 divisional spot.

 

[Speedy Sanderson]

Rangers, Islanders, Pens and Devils are all on their 5-day break this week. If the Jackets play poorly this week, they'll likely come out of their own 5-day break out of a playoff spot.

Hoping all is well with our friend The Old Guy as I didn't see his "cream those punks" post last game and he is usually an early poster.

We won the last game... just sayin'

My comment was hardly related to the game.

 

[Bobcat110]

CBJ usually beat Leafs. Probably be OT though this time due to CBJ injuries. 4-3 Panarin, Panarin, Werenski and Anderson

 

[mikeyp24]

I'm thinking we take this one close. Putting all my fake betting money on it. Let's do this.

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

Did you know that milk comes in bag in Canada? Just another reason to win and come home

 

[Cowumbus]

I don’t expect us to win, back to back in the 6. If we get a point I’m happy.

 

[aRussian]

Game like this feels of defeat. Hopefully I'm wrong. Allow 40 shots against in this one the score will be painful. Their offense doesn't play the "it isn't polite to score" game that our forwards seem to be playing.

 

[Byrral]

Excited for the game. Match-ups against Canadian teams are always fun, especially Toronto. Gonna need a colossal effort to win this game.

 

[MoeBartoli]

CBJ usually beat Leafs. Probably be OT though this time due to CBJ injuries. 4-3 Panarin, Panarin, Werenski and Anderson

I'm thinking 4 (or 5) CBJ goals, too.

 

[Maylo]

Torts is playing Bob again....

Top 3 in the division?!?!!#!? But we’re not even a playoff team!! This team is not even average. They’re easily a bottom 12 team in the league. (@CBJWennberg10)

All sarcasm aside, Go Jackets.

 

[Halfboard]

I really like that 9-18-77 line. Boy, was I wrong about PLD......WAY better than I ever thought he’d be.

 

[Theo Von]

Kind of weird having Toronto start this game immediately on a 3 minute powerplay.

Compare him now v. training camp. Kid has markedly improved. I was in the camp of people advocating to start him on wing and that he didn't look ready to be a center.

Glad one player is playing above expectations since we have so many underperforming! Happy to be wrong on this one

 

[MoeBartoli]

Golden chance for Boone....but I guess that's why he has 4 goals.

 

[MFRONE]

The Jackets have no idea what to do on an odd man rush

 

[MoeBartoli]

Good pair of offensive sequences.

 

[Speedy Sanderson]

Didn't Polak injure Bjorkstrand last season up in Toronto? Hope one of our guys lights him at some point tonight.

 

[MFRONE]

This team is so inept offensively

 

[DJA]

Jenner completely alone in front of goal dicks around for a few seconds with the puck in his skates and loses control. Sums up his season.

He is one of the players who has hardcore gotten away from his game. Tries to force a skill game but will always lose that battle
