Aaron Portzline ‏@Aportzline

#CBJ POHOP John Davidson and former coach Todd Richards played golf before Richards headed to Russia for @IIHFWorlds2016. No hard feelings.

Finland's head coach Late Marjamäki thanked especially Blue Jackets video coach Mike Battaglia who has produced for Finland extremely much video of Finnish players.

Tom Reed will be rejoining the dispatch and cover the cbj, taking over for Jones/Mitchell.

w00t! Will be nice to have him back.

 

[DJA]

Good. Mitchell is better for soccer. And keep Jardy far far away from the CBJ beat.

EDIT: Scratch that. Ten games

02/25/16 New Jersey
02/11/16 Anaheim
01/25/16 Montreal
01/21/16 Calgary
01/19/16 Washington

It's been said that if you take an infinite number of monkeys and give them an infinite amount of time, they would eventually reproduce the works of Shakespeare.

This list is more like if you exposed a howler monkey to large amounts of LSD and put it in front of a keyboard for some reason. Possibly for amusement, possibly for research, possibly because you're just vindictive. But this list is the natural end result.

Pretty poor comparison. Playoff games at Nationwide would be sold out.

 

[LetsGOJackets!!]

agreed

but 13,000 at an AHL Calder Cup final game is still pretty impressive - wonder how many drove from Columbus?

Oh i agree, just not sure why we need to compare a perennial loser's attendance in mid-winter to an exciting, Cup-winning team's in June.

Agreed. Now, who's driving to Cleveland on Saturday?

Wasn't casting aspersions I just thought it was interesting

Good for TR.

 

[Derby]

Four from our house! I'm a Ceveland native and can't convince any of my siblings to join me at the game, LOL. I think this is a bigger deal for Cbj fans then the vast majority of Clevelanders. Most of my HS friends who still live in Northeast Ohio don't even know who the Monsters are.

That. Is. Awesome.

The athletic training ought to help his dancing as well.

Posted in the Monsters thread too. But if anyone in Columbus is planning on coming, I'd look to get tickets beforehand. Bought tickets this afternoon. Lower bowl is completely sold out, and FWIW the guy at the box office is saying a sellout is very possible.

especially considering Cleveland will be looking for some consolation/happiness once the cavs bow out...

So ESPN's doing a sort of Vegasification of existing NHL team logos because, y'know, because.

This is what they came up with for the Jackets:

I saw the logo before I read the text, and I must admit, at first glance, I thought it was part of the Kings logo embedded in the Jackets logo.
