GDT: Game 76: Columbus at Carolina | 3/30 7PM

[Iron Balls McGinty]

Korpisallo can't get a win, no way he sees the ice in the playoffs.

He should never see the ice in the playoffs anyway but some up front scoring would be helpful. You can't win if you don't shoot and score.

 

[MFRONE]

Not good when your 4th line is far and away the best offensive threat all game.

 

[EdwardG]

From what I saw Korpi was very good. Cheap goal off a skate for Carolina late in regulation.

The big problem is that the Jackets were stifled the entire time I watched. They generated no offense whatsoever the last period, and I think that carried over to the OT where guys were very tentative who usually aren't tentative.

Another loss in Carolina...whee.

 

[MAHJ71]

Just not a good effort in OT.

Kinda just reminded me of our current power play... no current idea of what to do, just try to 1v1 and get shots from the outside.

On to the next.. tomorrow is just as huge. Lets get more points.

 

[MFRONE]

Korpisalo was okay, he caused a lot of chances by lack of puck control

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

He was not going to anyway. Teams don't play their backups in the playoffs.


Need to score more goals. I know, obvious, right? But the offense needs sorted out.

 

[KJ Dangler]

Korpi played a great game. The one goal in regulation , a lucky bounce . If your backup gives up one goal in regulation , I think everyone here would take that every night. Time for the folignos, hartnell, saad to start scoring some goals . Did Wennberg have a shot on goal tonight ?

 

[Iron Balls McGinty]

Going back 4 games including tonight to the Capitals game, the CBJ have been outshot by 50 total shots.

 

[EspenK]

4 and no more if they don't get their offense untracked.

I'm most concerned about Wennberg. You can tell he's not nearly as confident with the puck. Dumping and chipping pucks when earlier in the season he could delay and find tape. Hartnell has been fine. If we get bounced early in the playoffs it won't be because of Hartnell's production

Wow lol.

 

[jackets4life]

That was a frustrating loss. Korpisalo was really solid. Offense needs one good night and I think they'll find their way again.

Yikes. At least there is time to right the ship

 

[The Jones Zone]

take from PNC arena

Jones is good, really good. Korpi was good...had some luck, Faulk missed open net early on a shot any wee pee player scores on

I didn't know until tonight Johnson was drafted by the Canes and declined to play for them, got a nice ovation when they announced his goal

Our offense sucks right now, s u c k s

we'll get killed in the playoffs if something doesn't change fast, Bob ain't pitching shutout after shutout

 

[Iron Balls McGinty]

Tonight's game was only 7 shots. The prior 3 games going backwards were 13, 15, and 15.

 

[EdwardG]

I just don't think the effort is matching the opponents and frankly I don't care if it is as long as it's there in the playoffs. It just seemed like everyone who had the puck was fighting through 2 guys. I don't know what is going on with Wennberg, Foligno, Cam, Saad. Foligno, man, seems like he's had about 3 points in his last 25 games.

 

[MFRONE]

Jones wasn't that good, he was lazy and failed to clear the crease and it resulted in him deflecting in the tying goal. That play alone erases all good he had earlier in the night.

I didn't think Werenski was good, Jones carried him all night.

He had a fine stick check on what otherwise looked like a pretty certain goal (Korpi looked beaten) with about 5 minutes left.

 

[Bobcat110]

CBJ can finish March with 24 points if they beat Hawks. It would be impressive to pull in 24 points playing ****** hockey when they got 28 points in December going undefeated.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

The defense and goaltending is fine. Giving up 2 goals is pretty good and gives you a great chance to win. Scoring 1 usually gives you no chance to win.

Breaking: #CBJ had to abort their trip to Chicago a half hour into flight and return to Raleigh due to a faulty generator. All safe.

#CBJ president of hockey operations John Davidson said there was no panic on plane. Team will fly to Raleigh in the morning.

 

[Heinze 57]

I am not panicking about the offense. What I think we're seeing is post-clinch letdown and once the games matter again then we'll see a healthy, rested, and amped up team that takes it to opponents in waves. The team we saw in November and December. They've scored 8 total goals in the 5 games since clinching. I'm attributing the power outage to that.

Now, are they capable of turning it back on? Who knows. I like to think they can.

With as much travel as these teams do I am surprised there have not been more Marshall/Lynyrd Skynyrd situations. Before anyone says it I did not just cause this to happen in the near future by bringing it up. I have very little power in my own life much less a group of people I have nothing to do with other than watching them for entertainment.
