  Word is Raffi1 might miss the game tonight, as his wife may be having their first child.

  If there was ever a game to get the 2 points this is it.
• End of Line

  

  Kessell and Hagman are the only good points on the Maple Laughs.
  
  Jackets win 4-1

  OP updated.
• osudarby08

  

  We need this. We have been playing Notre Dame-football esque, only in hockey. We both have(had now I suppose) fatass coaches, have a really good offensive player with a few weapons, and we both have shitty defenses. Need I say more? lol
• End of Line

  

  ^^^^^^^^That made me laugh.
• capninsano

  God I hate to admit it because I hate Notre Dame with a passion, but that's pretty accurate.
• darbypitcher22

• osudarby08

  

  Jackets are living up to the Notre Lame comparison so far.
• osudarby08

  

  And just like that, we score. yay.

  Mason pulled from the game.
• osudarby08

  

  Well, the tv is now on the Oregon/Oregon State game. Thanks Jackets, you fucking suck.
• BlueDevil11

  

  Shorthanded Goal Toronto
  5-1
  First shot Garon faced.
• End of Line

  

  The Jackets are getting their shit stomped in tonight. Burke is starting to look like a genius by bringing Kessell on board.
  
  
  Thankfully, Im watching the Pens game and it's a really good game.
• BlueDevil11

  

  Just waiting for the Oregon/Oregon State game to be on now.
  This one is over.
• Blitzkrieg

  Shorthanded goals, turnovers, poor play from Defensive lines.
  
  And I make note that when the offense can't score, Mason throws a tantrum... but when Mason sucks, no emotion at all.
