GDT: PO Game 6 | Columbus vs. Washington | 4/23 7:30PM | CNBC, FSOhio
- Thread starter Samkow
- Start date
I just got on Ticketmaster and there appear to be about 150 to 200 unsold tickets. There are many more available for resale. I think the game will end up selling out, but there will be a noticeable number of empty seats if people don't scalp much before the game. I have season tickets so it's not a question for me where I'll be at 7:30 tonight, but I think the last three games have turned off some of the bandwagon fans. Certainly no attendance records tonight.
In game 3 of the regular season against Carolina, Torts put Milano on the ice in OT and it resulted in a goal for Milano. That type of thinking would have been nice to see in this series.

That would be an epic troll by the hockey gods if the Jackets were eliminated on a game shown on The Golf Channel.

I understand this thinking and am not necessarily against it but does it fit? Doesn't sound very Torts-ian. Plus, it's not like what they've been doing hasn't put them in position to win 4 of the 5 games in this series.
There are only two things I can't stand in this world: People who are intolerant of other people's cultures...and the Dutch.

There are 2 types of people in this world: People who don't care about Finnish history and...ummmm...well...I guess there's only one type of people.
I like Milano, but he's been extremely underwhelming in the series. He just looks like the smallest 200 pounder in the NHL. A boy amount men.

Corsi and other analytics are quickly becoming the hockey version of "the book" that baseball managers use to justify dumb decisions. Someone mentioned Bjorkstrands Corsi number as being good. Here are some numbers that aren't good. From Jan 1 til the end of the season Bjorkstrand had 5 goals in 42 games including 2 against Dallas. I want Oliver to be successful, but he's got to do a lot better than that--Corsi be damned.

Pretty sure you could substitute William Karlsson's name in there during the playoffs last year. Be careful who you give up on.

Like how they played game trade deadline night when they beat the Caps 5 to 1. Just hoping more than anything.

Sounds like you’re doing a weather report throughout this entire post. Impressive, my dude!
I'm speaking only for me, but that game 4 no-show killed all faith for me. That unwillingness to compete was telling.
AO promised to even series, they walked the walk. Torts saying we will get to game 7 seems empty.
That game was a casual fan killer. Something the CBJ are absolute experts at.
If you dropped $120+ on that game, would you be in a hurry to do it again?

Was weird walking by the arena at lunch today. All the fanfare, fox sports studio and 'nhl playoffs' banners were gone. It was just like any other day. Almost as depressing as the results/effort of the last two games....
Let's not make this our last 60 minutes of hockey shall we? Even if we lose the series it would be great for the fans and for the players development to push it to game seven.
I'll be honest, I'm never going to spend money like that on a ticket again and I'm not a casual fan. I'm not even sure I would if I won the lottery or something. Doesn't matter if we win/lose, it's not worth it.
I'm not a casual fan and it killed me, so no joke man. Two record attendance numbers? Two losses.
