Got to go with the Flames in this one. They're playing really good hockey, ever since they got stomped by the Blackhawks.

I'm going with CBJ in an upset.

Also - Kudos really go out to DC from the other site for his GDT format.

Dear Blue Jackets,
What the hell is going on with you lately? You have single handedly screwed up a game any way possible on the last road trip. Will you please get the sand out of your vagina's and play like an actual hockey team now? Thanks.

Sincerely,
Every Blue Jackets fan.

P.S. Why the fuck is Freddy Modin still on this team? I think his ratio of missed games to injury to games played has to be 3-1.

Flames 5-3. Jackets make another backup goalie look like a stud.

Great news - Picard was called up from Syracuse! He has been magnificent. 58 Games played in the NHL and a whopping 2 assist and 0 goals.

Calgary dominated OT, but did not score.
Jackets only had one good shot on goal, while Calgary had several.
Now going into a shootout.

I forgot about the game and turned it on with 5 minutes left and saw two goals immediately. Maybe I should quit watching, everytime I watch they seem to give up several goals.
