Don't count on it. If I were the gambling type, I'd be taking Cbus.

If we're talking bleeding as in "re-uping pact with devil to make sure this shit ends tonight", I'm WAY ahead of you!

They need a goal to get some confidence. They surely aren't playing with any right now

That's a dirty play by Vitale. Deserved to get hurt on it.

I hope the crowd gives the bluejackets a standing ovation at the end. Not for tonight but for a great season.

Holy shit.

The Fleury chants remind me of the Cueto chants in the playoffs last year.

Might be just a bit too little too late, but props to CBJ for making it a game. They def deserve a standing ovation.

BTW I Love this team. They have so many like able players and give max effort.m My wife went to a couple regular season games and the first playoff game with me. Tonight she says we should get some partial season tickets so we can get all star and playoff tickets next year. Were going to buy them tomorrow or at the next open house they have. I hope the city really gets behind this team next season because if they have Horton healthy next year they should be even better.

BTW before this season my wife hated hockey and wouldn't go with me when I had tickets.

Fantastic season. This is a very young team. They exceeded all expectations.

The crowd was electric tonight. Now I'm going home to shave.

watched utnil it was 4-0 an dthen turned back with a minute to go.
WTF happened?!!?!?

Have to give the CBJ fans props. They were electric this series. Lets just hope they can back up this year with another good season.

As a pens fan I always considered the CBJ my 2nd fav team and it worked as they were in the west and only played 1th time a year. Now they are in the same conference it makes it a bit more difficult

Pick a team and stick with them. You can't be a fan of two teams. It's just wrong. That's like me being a Reds and a Cardinals fan or a Bengals and Steelers fan. Pick a team and live and die with them. You're a Pens fan? That's fine. But don't claim to be a CBJ fan in a few years when the Pens are shitty and the CBJ peak.

Anyway, while the CBJ lost the series, I saw this sign as I was leaving the arena last night and it made me feel a little better.

I guess I meant it more like this....I am a Pens fan, but follow the jackets mostly because they are on TV pretty much every game. Sort of how I am a reds fan but follow certain players from around the league such as Luebke, Stammen, Niese, Billinsgly, Kraus, etc, and hope they do well any time they are not facing the redlegs.


I in absolutely no way would ever root for a jackets over the pens at all.

Lifelong Pens fan and I've always pulled for Columbus when they were in the West. I was there their early years and their games in-person are a damn good time.

I'm glad they are on the come up when not too long ago there was talk of them moving.
