Series Thread: Tampa Bay Lightnings vs Columbus Blue Jackets

[gob]

Haha, heard this on the radio this morning:

How we know the Jackets will win tonight - nobody named Cooper has won a big game in Columbus.

2006 - Carolina has a long battle with a young defenseman who eventually leaves. The team comes from out of nowhere and wins a cup.

2012 - Los Angeles, a mediocre team, trades away a defenseman for a whiny superstar. They sneak into the playoffs as an 8 seed and shocks the world with a cup.

2018-19 - Columbus battles with a veteran D-man who thinks he is worth more than he is and that D-man eventually pisses off to another team. The Jackets sneak into the playoffs as an 8 seed and... Well, we'll see.

That defenseman's name? Albert Einstein.

Hedman doubtful. Killorn unlikely.

Nutivaara did not practice again this morning, but no indication of whether he is good to go.

This actually doesn't comfort me. Fucking Coburn is a heavy hitting monster.

Follow up edit:

Stralman not ready either.

It would be great to see PLD and Dzingel crack the score sheet tonight. Will be interesting to see Kukan on the second pairing

Barry Melrose is expecting the Jackets to sweep the Lightning, so you know who to blame if this falls off the rails.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Lame.

Lame.

They didn't say anything aboot a broomstick however.

 

[gob]

Lame.

Bobby Carpenter (former OSU and cowboys LB, now radio host) tweeted back asking if a small dust broom/brush is acceptable. I'm not sure if they responded, though.

Oh...broomstick...my bad

3 hours.... Nervous excitement

 

[tsawchuk]

Lame.

That sucks. If McConnell Sr was still around I'd bet he'd be walking in with a broom himself.

 

[BGDave]

Lame.

No Mr. Security Guard, its not a broomstick, its a ramrod for the cannon.

 

[Comeds]

Lame.

What about a Dustbuster?

They won't let you bring a broom, but if you smell like the beach, no problem.
