from Aaron Portzline of Puck-rakers,
Now, Year 8, and what’s up with the Blue Jackets? They’re 3-6. Pascal Leclaire is hurt. They can’t get the puck out of their own end, even with three new defensemen. Fifth-line center Manny Malhotra is in the middle of the No. 1 line. No, wait, Rick Nash is now centering the No. 1 line….
The scene in Nationwide Arena has deteriorated. The Blue Jackets need to win more, of course. But it’s not as much fun in the building as it used to be. The scoreboard gags are tired and stupid. The organ playing “smooth jazz” during a TV timeout in the third period is embarrassing. Who’s in charge of this?
The players must play better, but the life needs to be breathed back into Nationwide Arena again. It used to be a great place to see a game.
