Letting him rest…

Time to let the kid rest. It was obvious against Dallas, and it was obvious against the Blues last night, Steve Mason needs to rest!! Thankfully, Hitchcock got the message and on Friday, in Pittsburgh, Dubie gets his first start as a Blue Jacket.
Let’s talk about the game. We hit a lot of posts - but that is no excuse for the way we played. Not saying anything bad about a team that is able to play a pretty style of hockey, but we aren’t that team. We don’t win hockey games with that. We win by outworking the other team and playing a “weighty” game.

WOO! I love when we get shutout wins. My question is who chose the stars of the game? I know Mason only saw 15 shots, but it was his first career shutout, and he played great tonight. He should have at least received one of the stars. Here’s how they went:
1. Rick Nash
2. Ondrej Pavelec
3. Jason Chimera

So, here it is. It is finally game day, can you believe it?! As I sit here, I’m watching Behind the Mask with Patrick Roy, to gear me up for his number retirement. Congrats Roy!
Anyway, onto the game.

Victory!

Victory. Sometimes, you just need to score some goals, get awesome goaltending, and well have a Calder Trophy candidate (or two) on your team, and you get...A WIN! Fredrik Norrena had a great night, stopping 30 of 32 shots. Brassard, Chimera, Murray, and Hejda all scored last night. Hejda scored his first goal in 115 games, and yes, it was his second goal in the NHL. Here’s the best quote of the night from Jan Hejda:
“It’s hard to for me to say which of my two goals was more beautiful.”

Nikita Filatov is being recalled, and will be playing in the home opener on Friday!! This is HUGE news for Blue Jackets fans, and of course it doesn’t come without a cost. Jared Boll is out with a head and neck issues, I’m with Portzline when he says Boll hasn’t been right since the fight in Dallas.
Now, onto the game last night. We had a good night on the power play, we were able to score two goals, which is a great thing. HOWEVER, when your power play allows TWO short-handed goals you have a serious problem on your hand. Pascal Leclaire wasn’t as good as he should have been, but he can’t be blamed for all the goals. The Jackets were able to keep the penalties they took at a minimum, but that did not help.
