The lonely Blue Jackets representative, Rick Nash, is enjoying his time in Montreal. While Nash is getting his All-Star on, the rest of the boys will be spread out throughout the world, and I, well I will still be here, working, going to school, and blogging of course.
So, what I want to do tonight is look at what has been going on with the Jackets, lots have changed, lots has stayed the same. Let’s think about the good, the bad, and the ugly.
Steve Mason has emerged as one of the best goaltenders in the league. Because of him, the Jackets are in a playoff race, a legitimate playoff race, ya know one when their captain won’t leave them. Pascal Leclaire had a brutal season, his nagging ankle injury has been an issue since he got Boogied in the preseason. Poor guy. Freddy Norrena and Wade Dubielwicz switched places, Dubie was claimed off waivers by the Blue Jackets, in a gutsy move by Scott Howson.

Time for a Break

Entering the All-Star Break the Columbus Blue Jackets are sitting in 10th place in the Western Conference, two points out of eighth, and four points shy of the fifth place Coyotes, with a game in hand. Last night, the Blue Jackets lost in a skills competition to the Calgary Flames. They went 1-1-1 in their Western Canadian swing, not too bad for an injury ridden team. Those injuries even go to our rookie goaltender, who had to drop out of the YoungStars game due to back spasms. You could tell last night he wasn’t 100% and was probably exhausted after his fifteenth straight start.

What do you do when your team keeps taking injury hits?
Well, if your me, you feel sorry for yourself...really sorry for yourself.
I know I shouldn’t and I was doing well for a while but after the loss to the Blues, I just want to feel bad. Nothing like self pity I guess.
