Fanpuck33 Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 How 'bout them Blue Jackets! 4-0 win over the Ducks, two goals and an assist for Nash! The loudest I've heard a Columbus crowd in a long time. The coolest part is we now have something unique when the Jackets score. Since they've turned the focus of the team away from the Native American Blue Jacket and more towards referring to Union Civil War uniforms, they now fire off a cannon blast for each goal. Pretty cool. Also, since they changed their logo, they were selling last year's jerseys for 60% off, plus I got 10% off that because of the shutout. Thus I got a new jersey for 36 bucks!

jetsniper Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 so, the ducks are e-e-vil.... chris pronger boo They have a weiner for a GM but I wouldn't call them evil. Starting off with a rough schedule and being treated like crap by Scott Niedermayer, I almost pity Ducks fans right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTH Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 I'm still waiting for the BJs to break out - I guess that goes hand in hand with whenever Zherdev breaks out. One can argue that even Nash still hasn't established himself as a superstar (his career-high in points is only 57 so far). I consider him one of the best wingers in the game but he hasn't put up the numbers to prove that yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He really hasn't had anyone to pass to so the assists aren't there yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 The problem with Columbus has been that they are building through the draft and that process is VERY LONG for an expansion team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InsaneHABSfan Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 The problem with Columbus has been that they are building through the draft and that process is VERY LONG for an expansion team. Exactly what Montreal is doing as the product they had in the past is not as deep as what is in the system now. Montreal is on the right track as is Columbus.

Yep, I know he's great. He had one 41 goal, 16 assist season which is good but not tha tgreat - he should have more than 16 assists even if his team sucked. Then he had 54 points in 54 games and a 57 point season (with under 30 goals) in his other season. He's a great player but needs to put up the numbers, I think. Zherdev is the real nut they need to crack though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanpuck33 Posted October 23, 2007 Author Share Posted October 23, 2007 It took longer than I thought it would, but Columbus has finally given up on hockey. 2nd worst capacity percentage in the league so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fanpuck33 Posted October 24, 2007 Author Share Posted October 24, 2007 Thats too bad maybe they just dont lie like other teams. Dallas and Vancouver are both pretty good draws, and I don't even think they sold out opening night against the Ducks. If they did sell out, then a lot of people didn't show up, quite a few empty seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fanpuck33 Posted October 24, 2007 Author Share Posted October 24, 2007 It won't help that last night the Jackets scored 7 goals . . . but weren't on TV, as it was one of the half dozen games not on FSN Ohio's schedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fanpuck33 Posted October 24, 2007 Author Share Posted October 24, 2007 They black out home games as well! BOOOOOOOOOO It wasn't blacked out, it just wasn't on the FSN schedule. They broadcast I think 75 of the 82 games. Usually they skip mostly far west coast games, I was surprised they skipped a game against a rival.

I remember my dad went to Mexico when Edmonton and Carolina had advanced to the SCF, he got the Miami newspaper. Couldn't find anything in there telling him who had advanced, he had to phone me and ask, haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanpuck33 Posted October 24, 2007 Author Share Posted October 24, 2007 Jackets usually have front page (of the Sports section) most days, though if big things are going on at OSU on a given day... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
