GDT: Ottawa @ Columbus Welcome Back David Savard Can We Get a Sticky? Edition

[NotWendell]

Sergei WHO?

Another nice win by Korpisalo(although he gave up a weird rebound that lead to the 2nd goal). Also, heck of a block by Wennberg prior to the Saad goal.

 

[We Want Ten]

I don't know how to feel.

 

[CBJ goalie]

Good win.
You can tell they're gelling more as a team, with how they handled the pressure from the Sens.
If this game was earlier this season, they probably would have lost.

And lost badly. Too bad we gave them the 5 on 3 power play but we're doing that less often now.

 

[EspenK]

I still feel good when we win. Can't help it!

Me too. You just wonder if this can be sustained and carryover to the future. Obviously last year's rally didn't.

I think the difference now is Torts, Jones, Saad, Korpi and the absence of Joey who was an add by subtraction.

Oh now THAT'S gonna draw a reaction!
(even though I agree with you)

Hard working, scrappy win. Keep it up Jackets!!

So you're saying this late season meaningless rally is different? This time it means something?

Good win!

I don't think I've seen Korpisalo lose yet, but I know he has, and maybe got lit up once or twice? How has he looked in losses- like a different player? Cause I've only ever seen him look like a stud.

Also really like Wild Bill.

That 13-17-38 line!

 

[Dednimnepo]

And lost badly. Too bad we gave them the 5 on 3 power play but we're doing that less often now.

I think this is a direct result of how that line plays and how Torts leans on them.

 

[EspenK]

No I don't think this means anything in terms of next year. What does mean something regarding next year is we have better assets going into the year becauseof thye huys I mentioned. We also will gain from Bourque being gone and hopefuly some combo, if not all, of Tyutin, Boll and Campbell being gone too.

This year it just means I can kvetch about screwing up our draft position again.

The team wasn't very good at the end of last year. Just Bob and some hot scorers. They won despite being outplayed a lot of nights.

Let's look for the team to play well and show signs of maturity.

 

[blahblah]

lol, we're certainly consistent. Lose early, win late.

Good win, I just hope that some of this play carries over to next season.

 

[NotWendell]

I think we should change our name to the Columbus Spoilers

 

[blahblah]

I think we should change our name to the Columbus Spoilers

lol, although the Sens weren't going anywhere.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Im getting annoyed

 

[Dr. Fire]

It's nice to see them win in front of a good crowd. In that regard the win is important.

Oh, and Prout was back to his awful self last night.

 

[SensAreSoClose]

What are those posters each game? Those cartoon/comic type promo adds? Absolutely awesome. The one last night was great, that's a really unique and different way to go that I like a lot.

 

[Bobcat110]

Winning is fun but this was just a dull game.

However, I was entertained when Ottawa's Ryan punched his own teammate (#43) during the scrum with Boone in front of CBJ bench.

 

[JacketsDavid]

Once we solidify our D in the offseason we'll be a playoff team for sure next season!

Part II - Insanity

Actually it's likely part 5 - we've had about 4 strong finishes which we've heard would build on something great the next year.

But it's the CBJ way to keep doing the same thing over and over.

They are cool.

another year of "what might have been"

Yes...nothing worse than a top 4 pick.
