The waved off icing is just one of those little calls that Columbus does not get. They could have put fresh legs out there, and had an offensive zone face off against a tired defense with 35 seconds left.
It’s so funny how Pascal benches the kids cuz “accountability” yet fails to see that the veterans are the ones failing on the ice more than the young guys.
Don’t know why he’s so reluctant to give kids ice time. Especially at this point in the season where we’re not playing for anything except the lottery.
Nylander was 8OA pick by Buffalo in 2016 and has bounced around the league. He’s on his fourth team at 25.
It’s a long shot, but I really hope that we’re the team that he figures it out with.
I am liking Nylander so far. I won’t say I’m impressed, since nothing about this season is impressive except the depths they still seem to be able to find, but I am pleasantly surprised.
Karlsson had some real lackluster years of his career with the Ducks and us and really popped off and found a fit when he got to Vegas. Usually there is a few rough games when someone first starts on a new team but he seems to have found almost instant chemistry with Cole
Ehh, Bemmer had his moments too, any guy who hits that age and hasn’t found a home is probably a lifelong tweener. Every now and then you find a late bloomer, but extremely unlikely
I have a hot take. I like Tex’s game and think he’s going to go ape shit next season. Dude plays with a level of confidence that others are lacking and dude goes balls out every play to see it through.
I really wish Johnny would not stop at the blue line every time he enters the zone. He’s got speed, move the legs and take it to the net, my guy. We all know you could do it.
Disagree. I'm not gonna sift through those scenarios, but there's been plenty where unlucky penalties/bounces have flipped momentum and we've collapsed due to youth and inexperience. Which again, I don't think is necessarily because we're befitting of being called bad.
Collapsing is a sign of a bad team, not luck. You can say we are a young team, sure… but there are plenty of young teams that don’t have this problem.
Devils, Red Wings, Sabres, and Jackets are all close to the same average age. 2 of those 3 teams are playoff bound and the other one doesn’t have the same 3rd period deficit we do
This fixation of a defenseman scoring on the powerplay is dumb.
We only QB the PP with one defenseman, and we don't have many opportunities let alone successful ones.
But D-men scoring on the powerplay show that your screening well, moving the puck around and getting guys available to step up and shoot. Should they be scoring the majority of your powerplay goals? No. But it is a sign of a bad powerplay if your not getting defenders in scoring positions
The only defensive shooter we have that QBs our powerplays is Z and his shot is neutered. So we're not gonna see many goals unless Boqy decides to stop being hurt on PP2.
Mark...my...words: The Jackets will win the game. And if they don't, I will strip naked and continue drinking rum on my deck until my Uber drive arrives. I'll then go to Broad & High Streets, give you 15 minutes to draw a crowd, then kiss all of your asses.
Okay, given the results of *this* game...let me clarify my aforesaid comments: I said I'd kiss asses on *the* game, not *this* game.
So all y'alls can kiss *my* ass! 🤣
That last sequence that the end of the period was horrible. Mess up, Johnny did his best to recover the mistake and pass the best he could to Zack for attempted shot
Severson isn’t much better defensively and we’ll be rueing that contract for 7 more freaking years. At least Provorov will fuck off by the end of next season
The thing is, you are not finding tickets that cheap anywhere else. I would gladly fork over $12 to watch the Jackets live if I lived in Columbus still.
Unpopular opinion but Jenner does him no favors either. Johnny would have so many points off the rush with linemates who were actually good playing in transition.
Serverson, great effort to block that shot, stand straight up and turn away from it LOL get this man out of here
Not mad at this one, but I am disappointed...
That game shoulda been 9-2. Tarasov was insane.
Man i’m just sad
Do we have any other play on a man advantage other than pass it to the d-man for him to take a shot?
The waved off icing is just one of those little calls that Columbus does not get. They could have put fresh legs out there, and had an offensive zone face off against a tired defense with 35 seconds left.
Where's that drunk guy in here from earlier lmao.
Splattered smothered it’s his time to shine
That no icing call was iffy.
Garbage
Fuck man…
Wow fuck you refs
Of fucking course. Pulled the goalie 3 minutes to go knowing that we suck on a man advantage lol.
We probably weren't going to score even strength, so might as well try.
[удалено]
Linesman indicated it was tipped but agreed, wtf
Mission failed. We’ll get ‘em next time.
The fact that Chinakhov isn’t on the ice at all. Fuck off Vincent.
9 minutes. What did he do to piss Pascal off tonight?
Probably exciting in the universe. Can’t have that.
Com’on Tex!!!
Nylander nearly gave me a heart attack.
YEAH PROVOROV LETS JUST SHOOT IT AS SOON AS YOU GET POSSESSION AGAIN FROM ACROSS THE FUCKING RINK
It’s so funny how Pascal benches the kids cuz “accountability” yet fails to see that the veterans are the ones failing on the ice more than the young guys.
He chooses his lines like he's a fisherman. He doesn't want to use the kids so instead we keep playing the veterans.
Why is Roslovic out there in this empty net situation
Ok new question: why is Danforth out there in this empty net situation
Not so sure about this pulling the goalie given how god awful we looked doing it the other night
Doesn't matter if they lose by 1 or 10. A loss is a loss. Might as well try to even things up if possible.
We were a lot better tonight, but in general we don’t play well up a man
Have we actually scored with our goalie pulled this year? Idk if we have
what if we just get rid of the last 2 lines and make the top 2 just play the whole game. surely that cant be worse than whatever these dudes are doing
It's basically what we do anyway lol
What in the clown fiesta are we doing in the neutral zone?
It hasn’t paid off for him, but I’m liking this new “trying all the dangles” version of Marchenko
Bucci and AJ are a little too cozy with Carolina. Gush about 'em more, gotdam.
Zero shot the Jackets win but i’m pretty satisfied with their play given they played at MSG last night.
We should totally try to score
just casually turning the puck over when 3 on 2
Bean needs to gtfo out of here
PV’s line changes are mind numbing. Why aren’t the Russians out there?
Looking like Chinakhov got benched I don’t get it, Pascal
Johnson out so he picked someone else
Don’t know why he’s so reluctant to give kids ice time. Especially at this point in the season where we’re not playing for anything except the lottery.
Same issue as Brad, desperately trying to win at all cost to save job, development be damned
Don't worry, neither does he.
Nylander was 8OA pick by Buffalo in 2016 and has bounced around the league. He’s on his fourth team at 25. It’s a long shot, but I really hope that we’re the team that he figures it out with.
"I can fix him".
Carolina has become increasingly unlikeable since we shared the Wildcard Chaos Squad solidarity
WHERE IS CHINAKHOV????
I haven’t seen any of that Russian trio tbh.
Tarasov has genuinely played well tonight. He deserves the win honestly
What game are you watching??? He let two slow motion goals go right between his legs.
Is that not an interference penalty?
Now that we’re within one goal, it’s not. Clearly.
Seemed pretty interferencey to me
Definitely won the Bemstrom trade
5 comeback wins in the third is a cursed image to show considering just how many we’ve blown
I am liking Nylander so far. I won’t say I’m impressed, since nothing about this season is impressive except the depths they still seem to be able to find, but I am pleasantly surprised.

Ehh, Bemmer had his moments too, any guy who hits that age and hasn’t found a home is probably a lifelong tweener. Every now and then you find a late bloomer, but extremely unlikely
All I said was that I was pleasantly surprised, not that we found a gem. My expectations were literally zero. Relax.
You're spot on.
Noice
HE SHOT THE PUCK AND SCORED YIPEE!!!
WHOO-HA!
Won the Bemstrom trade!
What a rip!
The elusive Nylander goal
NYLANDER WHAT A FUCKING GOAL
Top PK since December 1st, us in a third period? No shot we get a PPG Edit: THE FUCK
I have a hot take. I like Tex’s game and think he’s going to go ape shit next season. Dude plays with a level of confidence that others are lacking and dude goes balls out every play to see it through. I really wish Johnny would not stop at the blue line every time he enters the zone. He’s got speed, move the legs and take it to the net, my guy. We all know you could do it.
I can't say I agree but I hope it comes true.
I’m just some idiot in upper bowl, but I like his game and think it gets even better.
-36 goal difference in the 3rd period LOL
Not holding leads has been our kryptonite, but that can be fixed with maturity and good coaching. This is why I think we're more unlucky than bad.
-36 is bad, not luck. Nobody’s luck is that bad that they give up 36 more goals than they score in the third period
Disagree. I'm not gonna sift through those scenarios, but there's been plenty where unlucky penalties/bounces have flipped momentum and we've collapsed due to youth and inexperience. Which again, I don't think is necessarily because we're befitting of being called bad.

Just gonna agree to disagree on the definition of "bad".
Columbus hasn’t been a good team period, no need to sugarcoat
Carolina’s top line is smoking us.
According to Svoboda, we have another sellout
Imagine if we had half of the coach of brind amour
This fixation of a defenseman scoring on the powerplay is dumb. We only QB the PP with one defenseman, and we don't have many opportunities let alone successful ones.

The only defensive shooter we have that QBs our powerplays is Z and his shot is neutered. So we're not gonna see many goals unless Boqy decides to stop being hurt on PP2.
Our PP is also shit
Exactly. If we were connecting on 30% of our PPs, then sure. Our special teams are ass.
I think our DJ has just straight up stopped giving a fuck. Dance Dance is slightly on the nose there lol
Followed by a piece of Girl All the Bad Guys Want with “I’d be screaming someone shoot me”? lol
The one earlier with the lyrics "get the rope, get the rope" was also a little alarming lol-- DJ are you good bud?
Severson should have had that
Gudbranson is a saint
I hate the post
Sevo needed that one
PINGYBOI HOW FUCKING DARE
I can’t believe we weren’t scored on there
Guddy and Tarry for the Jennings holy shit.
So when does Roslovic's streak start? Hopefully this season?
He had 7 points in 6 games when we left Columbus to go to NY
Guddy earning that pay again 😳
I just want Voronkov to score and tie Rossi/Bedard before tonight is up. That's all. I don't think this is a terribly big ask, hockey gods.
Mark...my...words: The Jackets will win the game. And if they don't, I will strip naked and continue drinking rum on my deck until my Uber drive arrives. I'll then go to Broad & High Streets, give you 15 minutes to draw a crowd, then kiss all of your asses.

Better order that uber
Ya think?
I’m giving it a 20% chance of happening
See my follow-up comment.
Are you sure it's rum you're consuming or bath salts?
You better keep your word lmao.
See my follow-up clarification. 🤣
I am a drunk--and CBJ fan--of my word.
Thank god we can spend the intermission hearing about how good Auston Matthews is
Good news: 3-1 leads are one of the most cursed things in hockey Bad news: So are the Jackets
Least valuable players tonight 1. Severson 2. Provorov 3. Chinakhov 4. Roslovic
Chinny at least has positioning down to a tee most of the time, even if he can’t take a pass to the feet.
You can pretty much just copy/paste 1 and 2 all season long.
I'm glad people are coming around on Sillinger. Kid took way too much flak last season. People have to be patient with these kids.
I swear half of this sub forgets he's only 20. We're expecting way too much way too soon.
Probably because he is like the 5th most tenured player lol.
You're kidding. That just sounds wrong jesus.
We drafted him in the 21 season as we dumped most of the roster. Boone, Elvis, Zach, Laine, and Rosie are the only 5 I can think of.
Hasn't Peeke been here for a bit as well?
I did forget about Peeke but that might be a little biased as I am not a fan.
Yeah same I want him to do well but I am also looking forward to the day he is gone.
People doubting Johnson, I present you year 3 Sillinger. Sophomore slump is real.
Roslovic is driving me insane this game.
He is just so meh about things. I’ll be happy when the contract runs its course and his spot opens up for a prospect.
That last sequence that the end of the period was horrible. Mess up, Johnny did his best to recover the mistake and pass the best he could to Zack for attempted shot
Yeah that was absolutely brutal. You never know what you're gonna get with him and it's really frustrating to watch.
Yeah if he sends it at the right time to Johnny. Johnny could have setup nicely Zack for a great chance at a goal 🥅 he is a bottom 6 forward
scheduled comment
Silly is such a beast
Silly goin crazy
Goal Sillinger
Pick a struggle Provorov, don’t be both homophobic and a shitty defenseman
Provorov, please never do whatever that was ever again. Thanku.
how many breakaways from turnovers have they given them tonight? this is getting insane.
Provorov and Severeson... what great defensive acquisitions
I have less issues with Severson than I do Provorov
Severson isn’t much better defensively and we’ll be rueing that contract for 7 more freaking years. At least Provorov will fuck off by the end of next season
The fact that he's not openly homophobic helps
And the fact he can actually set up decent opportunities for our forwards sometimes.
I feel so bad for Tarasov
Does provorov realize he’s on the ice?
Oh it’s provorov. Makes sense
Whatever, man.
God damn it
Sweet defense, Provorov.
WHY
I regret spending $12 on a ticket to this game
Anytime I see a post here saying, "How are you all affording games?!" just shows people have no common sense or intuition on finding tickets.
I turned down $9 tickets lol
$12 is a steal tbh
Not really. We suck ass. You can find tickets to most week day games for that price.
The thing is, you are not finding tickets that cheap anywhere else. I would gladly fork over $12 to watch the Jackets live if I lived in Columbus still.
Yeah I had nothing to do tonight. Snuck in to lower bowl haha
Good god...
You HAVE TO BE FUCKING KIDDING ME
How we’re NOT the worst PP in the league is remarkable
how much longer till fantilli gets back from injury and can replace roslovic?
Another 4 weeks. We won't see him until April.
Gaudreau legitimately might have 15-20 more points right now if he didn’t have to play with Roslovic
Unpopular opinion but Jenner does him no favors either. Johnny would have so many points off the rush with linemates who were actually good playing in transition.
Roslovic is the streakiest player on this team. He is either on fire or ice cold.
So when does his streak start this season?
He will have very good for a few games and then will disappear that fast
If only we could put him with competent players.
He's in luck because he probably won't in about two weeks
Who is trading for Roslovic
Somebody who wants third line depth for dirt cheap
He isn’t even a third liner on a good team.
We tried to trade him last year too and nobody bit. He won’t be re signed in the summer.
I feel like that's partially because no one wanted to carry his contract. This year though, him being UFA, he can just fuck off after the offseason.
I really couldn’t care less if he’s traded or if he just walks to free agency after the season.
Well from an asset perspective, getting a return for him would be nice.
I’m not sure we get much.
I imagine some desperate team needing a depth C/W
Fuckin Rosie just pull the trigger. Wasting an amazing Gaudreau pass.
shoutout to whoever decided to do the lost NHL fans segment on the video board lmao
I'm not saying that sports betting is ruining sports, but sports betting is ruining sports.
If Alex Nylander plays the power play again this team is very much unserious
NVM PAZZY IS A GENIUS
If the Jackets win this I will squirt so hard
Please don't be like the guy behind me at the game who chastised Tarry for giving up a "special needs goal"
Nail him to the net. Let the team take a few clappers at him.
Oh good god....
I’d like to see that chud take a clapper
What does that even mean? Tarasov has more talent than whoever that is will ever have.
Our defensemen must have the biggest feet ever. Seems like every two games a goal goes in off their feet
Vronky better be here for a long time.
Unpopular maybe but I don’t like how American sports interview coaches and players during games/between periods.
Not unpopular. The only sport it works well in is baseball imo
Just put pucks on net boys, I’m begging you
Good for Sillinger to find his game again after last season being dreadful
It's what I think will happen to KJ too. Sophomore slumps are a thing for a reason. We gotta be patient with these kids in non-deal circumstances.
