    LET'S GO JACKETS!!

    Jackets need to get something going. Detroit has a lot of injuries to key people. Maybe tonight is the night the Jackets get it going.

    Carry The flag!!
  • pkebker
    Let's hope they get it together, but I'm not holding my breath...
  • End of Line
    Nice GDT. Considering the amount of injuries Detroit has, the Jackets NEED to win this game.

    Garon's in goal tonight...do you think that helps or hurts our chances of winning...
  • KnightXC1
    1-1 halfway through the game. Wings got Fillpula and Rafalski back tonight which helps a great deal. As long as they hang tough until they get healthy, they will be scary right around the Olympics.

    Can't defend the goal much better then Garon did tonight. Of course, when CBJ averages under 1.5 goals a game, like they have the last 8 games, you wont much win anyhow.
  • pkebker
    Oh well...the losing streak continues...
  • darbypitcher22
    we're terrible.

    No way we're making the playoffs this year.
  • hoops23
    Yeah, this season is trash.
  • gerb131
    Season is just about over. Tough loss as they played well but not well enough.
  • KnightXC1
    Wings needed that win badly. Hopefully they can string a few more together while they try to get guys healthy over the next month or so.
  • Blitzkrieg
    CBJ is a slumpbuster for every other NHL team. (save Carolina)
