Comedy CowPies in the 'Lumbus

[forty_three]

So, I would like to recap the failures and successes of the Blue Jackets organization this past week, according to the Kool Aid drinkers.

What we got right:
Advanced stat black hole Jack Johnson coming back
Didn't overpay Lindholm that somewhat reasonable contract he got in Boston

What we missed on:
Drafted Caden Lindstrom - Should have picked Demidov
Let sure-fire Gretzky record beater Alexandre Texier go
Let sure fire best Nylander brother Alex go
Let sure fire Norris trophy winning midget Nick Blankenburg go
Let apparent Central Ohio product Carson what's his name go
Let star defenseman Jake Bean go
Did not bring back a broken down Cam Atkinson
Did not bring back a broken down Alex Wennberg
Signed Monahan when Stamkos was RIGHT THERE
Hired a broadcaster other than the flapjacks on a ferris wheel guy
Have apparently narrowed down the coach search before knowing Joel Quenneville was reinstated



It is so exhausting being a part of this fanbase sometimes.

Level-headed Steelers fans would agree wholeheartedly

Is the Saddledome the oldest arena in the NHL?

Wait, is it even still the Saddledome or is it something else?

/how could I forget MSG

Scotiabank Saddledome is the official name - New arena is scheduled to be ready for sometime in the 2027-28 season. I think MSG is technically the oldest building in the league, but it's gone through several renos through the years.

MSG's basically brand new though like Dash said.

Funnily enough the new runner-runner up behind the Saddledome is Utah and they're basically going to have to figure out their situation immediately.

Add to all of this, it has been announced JMFJ is wearing #3 and Moneyhands is wearing #23.

Some people are saying that Kuraly should have to give #7 back to Johnson, while others are wondering why Monahan can have 23 since Jake Christiansen wore it last year and he's "still on the team".



Probably all the same people who went apeshit when Fantilli switched to 19 because they had already bought 11 jerseys.
