A point lost

The Jackets lost in a skill competition last night. RJ Umberger was an absolute beast for the Blue Jackets last night. He set a franchise record by scoring two goals 89 seconds apart. It was a game that the Jackets should have won. We had every opportunity to win, but we didn’t capitalize on our chances - shocker, I know.

Mono, a loss, and a not so fun night

Well, that explains, uhm, everything. Steve Mason was pulled last night for the first time in his short NHL career. Steve Mason has mono. Mononucleosis is absolutely awful, trust me, if you’ve never had it, then you have no idea how bad it is. I suffered through it in 7th grade. I was in and out of school for a month, and even when I came back I was still doing half days for a few weeks.
I don’t really feel comfortable with Mason in net, if he’s dealing with mono. He needs to rest, and really should not be playing. These quotes really don’t help me either.
“Our doctors feel he’s had it for a while and they feel he’s on the other side of the virus,” Howson said. “The worst of it is probably over.”

Live blogging the game tonight starting at 6:45!! Come join in the madness.
Notes for the game tonight:
Mason vs Turco in net.
Commodore isn’t angry with any of the Stars, which is kind of unfortunate considering his play when he is angry..
We are competing with the Stars for a playoff spot, even though Cat promised me the Stars playoff spot earlier in the season.
Not, that I am mad that Mason is starting, but I want to see Dubie.
Live blog, below.

Okay after being emotionally drained from that game last night, I think I am alright now to talk about it.
First of all, Leclaire should have been better. Had he been better, we never would have been in the position to get the goal called off in the first place.
Second of all, the fights, were too much. Brassard never should have dropped them, and now we are without him for a month? Wow, that’s a huge blow. Not to mention Boll and Commodore dropping the gloves.

Two Points

Wow! What a game. Not necessarily the game I expected, but it was a great game. Every period brought its own challenges, and even felt like a completely different game. The highlight of the game for me, aside from the win of course, was the outstanding hit on Avery by Commodore. Jakub Jake Voracek scored his first NHL goal, Derick Brassard scored his second NHL goal, Murray scored, and Kristian Huselius scores his first goal as a Blue Jacket. The Jackets were up 4-2 with three minutes remaining then the Stars score twice to tie it up. Overtime begins, and the Jackets looked...decent. With 30 seconds left, our Captain, took it upon himself, and won the game for us, with a beautiful wrister that went right by Turco.
The game was a game that we should have had in regulation. But, we did show character, by coming back and winning the game in overtime.
