GDT: Game #46 - CBJ at VGK - 11 Jan, 10pm

[Robert]

Galant is pissed..... For the youngsters here Gerard Galant (head coach of the Knights) was a day one CBJ coach... I met him several times, a real nice guy who's pissed tonight... hahahaha

 

[MoeBartoli]

I've been twice. It's awesome! This is the first year I've missed.

What’s your favorite opposing venues to see a game?

 

[Viqsi]

Let's Go Blue Monsters!

Blue Lumberjacks?

(The throwback name seems like it'd be a good match...)

 

[Maylo]

This Jackets/Monsters team is busting their butts. It’s a blast watching them as was they lack in skill they make up for it with their effort.

Ollie and Murr are welcome to return the rest can sleep and heal. :}

 

[Madifer]

..with a shutout

 

[NotWendell]

Robert eats two bales of crow on this Elvis kid... dude is 5-2... 2.0 GAA..... wow..

THIS Elvis (on the road trip) was the guy I EXPECTED to see at the first of the season

 

[Viqsi]

Elvis upon being asked about the guitar celebration and/or whether or not it was impromptu: "That was the toughest three minutes of my life."

 

[Socks]

I like this kid a lot

 

[Viqsi]

 

[NotWendell]

OMG! He just did a mic drop and said "Elvis has left the building"

Imagine the CBJ being 10 years ahead of the league realizing Gallant is a good coach.

Jarmo’s lookin’ pretty smart right about now. Jackets are playing a different, more fun kind of hockey right now. Stenlund is definitely a keeper. Hopeful he can take Wennberg’s spot next year.

 

[Iron Balls McGinty]

I think he gets the job back. If anything, we won't have to play him every game the rest of the year.

I imagine this is more what Jarmo had in mind with dual goaltenders

I still contend it will be 50/50 until they have to make a decision or there is a clear winner. When Korpisalo returns I think he’ll be eased in. They at least have the benefit of not rushing him back.

With that being said, I’ve always believed Elvis was the real deal and we are seeing what he’s about and what he can do.

I missed this. So Elvis is talking to the media now?

To be fair, he probably was back then, too. It's just that he was coaching a roster assembled by Doug MacLean.

 

[Finner]

6/8 for trip. This was excellent. Next 2 homegames and they are hard ones, Bruins and Canes. Well this team amaze me day after day so anything is possible. Lets go CBJ!


Wenny is an sniper.

Yep. Did a post-game with Metz.

Ssshhh we don’t speak of The Dark Times.

 

[Maylo]

When are we playing Bolts? I wanna see this game now.

That first game back after a West Coast trip is hard anyway. It'll be a quite a challenge.

 

[Lumbus]

Yep. Did a post-game with Metz.

Thank you, sir. Am out of town and watching an online feed so I missed it. I appreciate your reply happy for Elvis

 

[Robert]

I'm day one fan as some here know, I'm known to be out spoken in the past but that said.... I've never seen a CBJ team with no NHL stars and 30% of the roster minor league do so well in four weeks...

It could be short lived, it could be an aberration but I don't think so this time...

Go Jackets.... GO!!!

 

[Iron Balls McGinty]

I missed this. So Elvis is talking to the media now?

I believe that only lasted 2 games.

 

[Lumbus]

I believe that only lasted 2 games.

Shit was it really only 2 games? It feels like a little more. It seemed like every tweet or Athletic article by Portzline referenced how Elvis imposed a media blockade

 

[NotWendell]

Elvis is going to be SOOOOO hung over on the plane tomorrow!

 

[Robert]

To be fair, he probably was back then, too. It's just that he was coaching a roster assembled by Doug MacLean.

Ugh.... Hate Doug all you want but the dude built the Arena and got this franchise off the ground.... I think it's horrible how you and so many fans trash that guy.... For all of the sensitive Blue Jacket fans they have no problem trashing Doug MacLean who started this organization.... Just because he put up an old school Canadian environment with fighting and fire works.... Pathetic..
