    Only about 5 times total this year. Some of the crowds, even for intriguing opponents have been pathetic...

    13,930 for Toronto
    11,562 for Montreal
    11,448 for Winnipeg
    14,090 for Philadelphia

    We heard for 5 years how fans wanted to see these intriguing Eastern teams more often. Then, these crowds...it's completely pathetic. You can literally walk to the gate and get lower bowl tickets for $10...

    At the GLI we were talking about this, but would a CBJ/DET or CBJ/PIT sell out the Shoe for the Winter Classic? Or is the fan interest not great enough in Columbus

    What's intriguing about the Jets?

    Bottom line is eventually you have to win to keep fan support.

    I think the novelty of a winter classic as the shoe easily sells out. I think Detroit would be the team to pick as their fans travel to columbus for games here anyways.

    Loss tonight to the pens. Need to get healthier and stay out of the box to beat the big boys

    Pens would be the team.

    Horton could be back tonight. Johnson left off of Olympic roster.
  • se-alum
    Horton and BOB activated from IR.
  • gerb131
    Horton with a goal. 1-0 with 13 left in Phoenix
  • gorocks99
    Jackets win last night, 2-0. Gotta hope Bob comes back strong and they can string together some wins, they're not THAT far out of it but halfway through the season a good streak of 7 wins in 10 games would be awesome.

    After a beating in st Louis jackets win in a shootout over the rangers. Give all credit to Bob
  • TedSheckler
    Bob was great last night.

    In other news, all 4 CBJ Russians make the Olympic team. Eh oh Russia go!
  • gerb131
    Bob is back as we own Carolina 3-0 tonight vs the peg
  • Azubuike24
    Huge home slate coming up too. Jackets in pretty good shape with 3 weeks left before the break.
  • Big_Mirg_ZHS
    Nice win at the peg with Mc in goal. Now to finish the three games in four days tomorrow.
  • Big_Mirg_ZHS
    Need to cash in on one of the pp opportunities
  • sportchampps
    Power play was great in the third lol. Another good win Horton and a healthy Bob has made the Jackets look like a playoff team. 7 of the next 9 are home games the Jackets need to make their move to pass some teams in the standings now.

    Just hope the Olympics don't kill the mo or the atmosphere at nwa
  • sportchampps
    Ugh I didn't even think of that. Who do we have on Olympics rosters. Hopefully it affects other teams more the the Jackets.

    Eh I wouldn't be totally sold for the simple fact that Detroit is close and has a bigger fan base. Horton seems to have completely changed that team
  • sportchampps
    Anyone going to the game tommorow
  • gorocks99
    Good shit so far at Nationwide. Jackets up on the Caps 2-0 after the first.
  • gorocks99
    Ending up pasting them 5-1. Very good win tonight, keep the mo going!

    Another winnable game Saturday in buffalo
