please no injuries tonight.
this would be an excellent first W of the season. Go Jackets!
We will either get slaughtered or commit slaughter.
Let’s hope it’s the latter. Bye-bye jack and bemstrom. You guys are just not consistent enough for this lineup.
I just want to see us being able to pass to each other, collect the pass, and not immediately turn it over. Bonus points if we don’t turn it over in our own slot.
Interested to see how jarmo and pascal navigate the too many guys on the roster thing. If Cole is sent down, I’m gonna be sick. Just waiver Robinson.
This line up feels exciting. I was not excited about the line up Thursday.
I remember the Rangers game we played last year when everyone thought it would be awful and we completely obliterated them at home and Tarasov got his first win
I just don’t know.
Want Fanti11i to get his first goal at home and hope Trouba and Kreider are absolute non factors.
Someone make sense out of Fantilli on the wing for me please.
Vincent said he was “excellent” in his first game so why move his position. Trying not to overreact but it’s just a head scratcher.
Team leader in assists: ***MARCHENKO?!?!!?***
My concern is that I think Jens and Tex showed some insane chemistry on Thursday. I think they both make plays and work with a similar mindset.
