I don't even know if I should be excited. If we get a lead we'll blow it.

We are due not to get Oshied.

I don't even know what to say going into these games anymore...go jackets?

Until we start finishing games, I'll go with that.

Go Jackets? Try to Carry The Flag Columbus?

Nash might get OSHIED, and maybe Nash will get in a fight.

^ I wanted that to be my first post because I felt it was very appropriate.

They looked horrible during the second. They're not gonna win this game.

Jackets leading 3-2 with 3:00 left in the game.

St. Louis empty net with 40 seconds left.

Goal Jackets!!
Vermette 4-2

HOLY SHIT! JACKETS WIN!

HAT TRICK UMBERGER!!!!!

Klelsa is going to be out for an extended period of time after taking a hit. Good win, but not what our defense needs is him injured.

Damn. I didn't think they'd come back.

I was running on a treadmill watching the game. I didnt have a hat to toss at the TV screen, so I tossed my sweatband instead.

Way to carry the flag RJ!!!!

Nice game Jackets!!!

They were never behind.

Just sayin.

^^^^^^I know they were never losing the game. I just thought they weren't gonna win after a bad 2nd period.
