Bad news, and ZERO points

Pascal Leclaire is finished for the season. So, what do we do? We keep going. Mason is carrying our team right now, he’s the goaltender that we are going to make the playoffs with, we just need to go for it. I hate that Leclaire is injured, I honestly do. But, I think he will come back next season, and will be a valuable asset for us. I know, people are saying he’s just playing the backup role, but I think we still need him for next season. We have Dubie for this season.
Steve Mason is backing out of the YoungStars game. He is having back spasms, which explains a lot. He will use the time to rest, and get health. The kid needs a break, I don’t even remember the last time he had a night off. Maybe tomorrow in Calgary Dubie will play, just to give him an extra game. I heard that the NHL big guys are not too pleased with the decision to skip Montreal, but I don’t blame Howson, Hitch or Mason. It’s about the team, not some game, that doesn’t even matter.

Are we to the point now that we make some moves?
I think after tonight’s performance, it’s pretty clear that we need help (who didn’t know that before?).
The defense was invisible, at best. Leclaire didn’t get the help he needed.

Caution, emotional post ahead.
Seriously? Letting in three goals on eight shots is totally ridiculous.
Not scoring on the power play is even more ridiculous. Okay, so Nash got a power play goal, I wrote that before.
Scoring your first goal on the 29th shot, is more ridiculous.
Losing to a team that played the night before, including their goaltender, makes me mad.

Alright Jackets fans, I had my volleyball game last night and so I missed the first period, and part of the second. I missed the first three goals of the hockey game. So, I can’t really tell you what happened or who did what in the first bit. I do know this Derick Brassard is probably one of the best hockey players I have ever seen, even if he was still battling the flu a little bit.
Steve Mason, playing in his first NHL game, and fourth game since he went down in April, let in four goals, but did what he had to do and got us the win. He kept his cool and didn’t let it bother him that he let in those two quick goals from Edmonton. Mason is going to be a solid goaltender for us in the VERY near future, and it was nice to finally see him on the ice, in a Jackets uniform. Tomorrow he will be facing Jaroslav Halak in goal when we play the Montreal Canadiens. Here’s Mason on the last 1:19 of the game:
