Comedy CowPies in the 'Lumbus

No JJ or Dubinsky? Torts you mad man!

Pairings appear to be:
Werenski - Jones
Cole - Savard
Murray - Nutivaara

They really need to be able to move the puck against this Panthers team.

There are three teams in history that have had 10+ game win streaks in successive seasons NHL history.

The Jackets just became that third one.


Bobsky with the shutty. 10 in a row.

What a turn around. Apparently we were resting the whole season just like the Pens. Torts has been playing 5d multidimensional chess the entire time.

 

[Sgt Brutus]

No Jack Johnson, no goals allowed

 

[esls79]

Peaking too soon.

Back to back for the Jack (Adams)

No Jack Johnson, no goals allowed

I feel completely vindicated.

Peaking too soon.

You hush.

Blue Jackets | Seth Jones takes Jack Johnson's spot as alternate captain

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

If Johnson actually had a decent multi-year offer on the table early this season and turned it down, his agent has some explaining to do.

He (apparently) didn't feel like the offer was "enough" to set him up for the next phase of his life that the mess from his parents is winding down, so he turned it down. Jackets closed negotiations at that point. No idea what the offer was.

They he publicly asked to be traded so he could go somewhere and showcase his skills and hopefully cash in as a UFA.


Now a month later, he's a healthy scratch during a playoff run and got his letter yanked.

He's not necessarily the sharpest knife in the drawer. And I am not sure an agent can fix that.


If only he'd gone to Vegas. He'd probably be one of the faces of the story of their year, we'd still have Karlsson and everyone would live happily ever after.



(admittedly "Karlsson" here wouldn't be the same Karlsson we see in Vegas, but he'd probably be good for 15-20 in the role here)

So, here's an interesting, albeit depressing, stat. With the win against Florida, Tortorella moved into second place all time among Jackets coaches with 126 wins, one better than Hitchcock.

Todd Richards is 1st with 127.

To put that in perspective, it's 3 less wins than Ron Wilson enjoyed in Toronto...

Kinda like last year when Bob took over the lead in wins by a goalie with his 97th.

Damn. Allen had our number tonight.

No more streak.

we have a 48 year history of these low-bar records. some of them are kind of funny (sad).
like Boeser, in 71 career games, is already 87th leading scorer in the 48 year franchise history.
or Edler, you know.. kinda good most games, never flashy, not one outside the city ever really thinks of him... is now our career leading defenseman scorer at 330 pts. oh, and is a career -45 as well.

The Leafs are 100 years old. They are also the only Original 6 team without a 1000 point scorer.

Tyler Bozak is in the top 25 in all time Leaf scoring.

Their all-time leading assister is a defenceman.

Babcock has been here for three seasons, including one tank job. He is 9th in coaching wins already.

Ron Wilson is ahead of him.

Blue and white is misery brought to life.

Yeah, but those 80's Norris division years were pretty fun to watch (at least DGB agrees with me). You'd think if the North Stars were able to make the Cup finals twice in a ten year span that the Leafs would have been able to make a decent run after sneaking into the playoffs with a 62 point season at least once but no.

It was a year before I was born but it seems like 86 was their best chance to get into the Cup, taking STL to 7 and losing by a goal before STL went to lose to Calgary in 7.

Leafs started that season 1-12-2 lol.

Another 3 point game for pittsburgh/philly
