Ch-ch-changes - Jackets at Mutts GNT

[forty_three]

Bob will get the night off with Mason getting his first start of the season.

A few other changes;
Atkinson will now be with Anisimov and Dubinski (Hell yeah!)
This puts Dorsett with Umberger and Brassard.
MacKenzie is out, Letestu is in on the fourth line in his place.

Also rumored - Savard will replace Moore on D. Not confirmed.



I am anxious to see Atkinson with Anisimov.

Liked what I saw of Atkinson the other night

Speaking of change, I think Jamison is checking his couches for loose change in order to buy the Yotes before the end of month deadline.

Anybody see what happened to Smith?

I was out picking up the big child from Driver's ed and when I got in the house LaBarbera was in.

Just went side to side awkwardly. Didn't leave the game until a few shifts later.
Lower body something or other.

A lot of things are becoming apparent.

The Good:
Cam Atkinson is something. He seemed to have good chemistry with Anisimov, but I am not sure that Anisimov has it with Dubinski. I would move Anisimov to center Atkinson and Prospal. Put Johansen with Dubinski and give Calvert a shot with two players with hands.

Ryan Johansen seems really happy that Arniel is gone. Once he learns he can hit and push through people, he will be the guy they need him to be. Awesome vision, just a little tentative.

John Moore is a stud.

The Bad:
35+ Shots against per night is not going to work, I don't care who your goalie is. They need a punishing defenseman because no one is going to be afraid that Fedor Tyutin is in front of them. Maybe time to give Savard a shot.

The Captain search may take a while. Johnson pinched a few times and got caught. RJ was flat footed on 3 of the goals and Dorsett has no discipline. He wants to be Chris Neil. He is being Esa Tikkanen.

When Mason let in the second, and it wasn't his fault, you could see the life get sucked out of the bench. He has to go. Bad situation, but it's over for him in Columbus. I hear Ben Bishop is available...

The Ugly:
The Jackets need to move to the East unless they can convince some East team to pick up Steve Sullivan. Fucker eats them alive.

this handy phrase will save you a lot of time "Jack Johnson sucks"
