The Blue Jackets are off to the best start in franchise history. 5-1-0 and are sitting fifth in the Western Conference. The Blue Jackets have lost ONE game, it’s a nice change from previous seasons. The game last night, was great for a number of reasons, starting from the beginning when I found out that Kris Russell, had signed a three-year extension.
So let’s get down to the game.

Forty Wins

It’s the wrong time of year for a team who has never made the post-season to drop the ball and that’s exactly what the Blue Jackets did this last weekend.
Nobody other than the captain played well, and that includes goaltender Steve Mason, but I absolutely refuse to pin the losses on him. He’s the reason we’re here, and the reason we’re battling for our playoff position.
Now onto the game tonight.
For the first time in franchise history we have 40 wins. FORTY. It’s a very exciting time to be a Blue Jackets fan.

Wait, where did the hockey season go?
Tonight the Jackets played their 72nd game of the season last night. A 3-1 win over the Florida Panthers.
Raffi Torres had a great pass from Huselius and buried his chance to tie the game at 1.

The best hockey game I’ve ever been to?
Last night. Hands down.
The play was absolutely perfect. It was one of the most intense hockey games I have ever seen.

Torres to have Surgery

Raffi Torres is going to be out for longer than expected. He is going through arthroscopic knee surgery.
COLUMBUS, OHIO – Columbus Blue Jackets left wing Raffi Torres will undergo arthroscopic knee surgery on Friday and is expected to be sidelined two to four weeks, club General Manager Scott Howson announced today. Torres was placed on Injured Reserve on December 2.
I expected him to have another surgery, obviously he hasn’t been 100% since coming back to the hockey club and if he is in as much pain as he says he is, then he needs to have another one and get going again.
It is a big blow to the Jackets. Torres was acquired over the summer from the Oilers. He has one goal and three assists in 14 games this season. Here’s to a speedy recovery Raffi.

Big win, with a huge loss

The Blue Jackets crushed the Rockford Icehogs Chicago Blackhawks last night. The Jackets scored seven goals on the Blackhawks newest number one goaltender, Cristobal Huet, while the Hawks only managed to score one against Pascal Leclaire. The night sounds pretty good doesn’t it? It wasn’t without its faults though, Raffi Torres decided to drop the gloves with Ben Eager. Torres went down and separated his shoulder, he is expected to be out six weeks. This is not good news for the Blue Jackets, although it does allow for one of our prospects to take his place, yes, including Filatov, who is able to play nine games before being sent down to the minors. But, before we get into that, let’s get into the game.
