I think we talked about that Tuesday but I had forgotten about that.<br /><br />We'll miss ya but that is what Center Ice is for right?!<br /><br />That game 4 was an amazing night I'll never forget.<br /><br />-LTLLTLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15817321633985765198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942323299745921789.post-71134539959614208452009-04-26T09:01:00.000-04:002009-04-26T09:01:00.000-04:00Rollo,

Hitch decided to mix it up a little for game 2 and put Dorsett in and well the rest is history. Dorsett played too well in that same roll to justify scratching him and Boll didn't look all that great in game one with I believe at least one bad penalty. Boll's game is evolving and he had a down year this year compared to last season, but his skill level improved. He now needs to bring back his reckless style and keep improving his skill and he will only get better and add some of that firey depth that they sometimes lacked on this seasons team.<br /><br />LTL, thanks again for the blog this has been a great season and I am glad I stumbled across this last April, definately helps some of my days go by quicker. Sad I will be leaving the city with this ship is really just starting to set sail, but I will be back for more and I will do my best to be back for the playoffs again next year. Nothing in all of the sport events I have ever been to has ever come close to the experience of that night. I felt sick after the call, but couldn't leave the arena until almost everyone else was gone just to soak it in for a few more moments. Thanks Jackets for the great season and lets get Nasher signed for the future.soultrainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14355990792545534671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942323299745921789.post-91256642356076160442009-04-25T11:45:00.000-04:002009-04-25T11:45:00.000-04:00Just a couple of thoughts to add:

Wow!<br /><br />It just seems like the Wings are always in perfect position. No matter which way the puck bounces off Mase, there's a Wing there to redirect or collect it. Best positional hockey I've seen. Our guys should spend the summer reviewing Red Wings video. There's a lesson in there.Ginohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18141539454951536316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942323299745921789.post-63193187932295391782009-04-24T23:13:00.000-04:002009-04-24T23:13:00.000-04:00Thanks for your time this season, LTL.

Need to pick up a physical defensemen in the draft, a Pronger type player.Need someone with a bit a mean streak. They got pushed around by the wings all 4 games. Might be a dumb question but where was Boll the last 3 games? Was he hurt?rollohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13716416934345589657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942323299745921789.post-61268012936190779552009-04-24T22:18:00.000-04:002009-04-24T22:18:00.000-04:00Thanks for the comments Loach.

Just take a look at last offseason's posts for examples :)<br /><br />Other than trying to get Nash re-signed I think it's going to be a pretty quiet offseason for the Jackets... but should he not re-sign things could get very interesting.<br /><br />I'll have a post up about Nash's comments by tomorrow morning.<br /><br />-LTLLTLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15817321633985765198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942323299745921789.post-15801722879303375492009-04-24T22:07:00.000-04:002009-04-24T22:07:00.000-04:00It was so great to be at rockin' Nationwide last n...It was so great to be at rockin' Nationwide last night. I still feel like I got kicked in the gut with that call - I agree it was too many men, but as Hitch said, it was clear it was Hudson Bay rules at that point. I guarantee the refs saw it and were going to let it go, but the linesman got caught up in the moment and called it.<br /><br />LTL, it's been great reading the blog this year. Keep up the good work. I don't post very much but enjoy reading it every day. I just moved here last August, and it has been great becoming a Jacket fanatic along with some of the long-time diehards. I may not have been here since the Day 1 PSL holders, but hey, I can say the Jackets are one-for-one in playoff appearances since I moved here...Loachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14330042087160873127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942323299745921789.post-70062960013036318322009-04-24T20:19:00.000-04:002009-04-24T20:19:00.000-04:00Talk about going out in a blaze of glory!

The boys sure did deserve a win with all of the determination they showed last night. It was nice to see them really turn things up a notch. Can't wait to see what the Jackets have in store for everyone next season.Peggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05653698448431963643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942323299745921789.post-22849221093677463452009-04-24T16:51:00.000-04:002009-04-24T16:51:00.000-04:00I saw it happen about 30 feet in front of me....I saw it happen about 30 feet in front of me....Angelohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00128826306685531173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942323299745921789.post-81756725526445924982009-04-24T16:36:00.000-04:002009-04-24T16:36:00.000-04:00I'd love to see a reply because I too agree that a...I'd love to see a reply because I too agree that a Red Wings player played the puck in their own zone with a high stick, which of course went uncalled.

I have to disagree with it "technically being a penalty, they were going for a line change, the puck was sliding down the middle (courtesy of Holmstrom (?) who had played the puck with a high stick and then poked it forward. While, technically, there were more than five on the ice, none of them were in position to play the puck. As opposed to the play in the first where a Wing tossed the puck out of their zone and through the feet of a number of Wings on a line change. That was closer to an infraction than what the Jackets were called for.<br /><br />Throwing things on the ice - two real comments here:<br />1) If you are going to toss something on, make sure it makes it - other cranky fans don't want to get hit with your swill (saw a guy in 108 get pegged with a can near the end of the throwing).<br />2) If you are *aiming* for a zebra - hit 'em. I am sure some of those throwing things have mothers with better aim.<br /><br />My ears were still ringing this morning and glad I did not have to work - my vocal chords got a rest.<br /><br />Go Jackets!Angelohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00128826306685531173noreply@blogger.com
