Any time they have a lead late in a game it's always interesting, unfortunately.

At Philadelphia taking on the Flyers tonight. Let's hope for a W!

Yep, and we're just four points out of the last WC spot and could jump Philly in the process.  Getting a W over Torts never hurts, either.

1-0 Jackets after the 1st period. Blue Jackets looked slow to start the game.

Bummer, Werenski exits the game after banging his knee into the boards.

Nice, he's back on the ice.

I'm late to the proceedings.  They give any update?  He has the worst injury luck: shoulder, hernia, puck in the face, you name it.  

Crap, they're only up by one now.

Just a flurry of goals now.

And they lose in OT.

Yes, a total let down tonight. I'm already in sell at the trade deadline mood after tonight's loss.

Mateychuk, top D prospect was called up. Makes me think Werenski gets a rest tomorrow with the hurt knee.

I had a chance to go see them play the Habs tomorrow night but passed on it.  Here's hoping I regret not going.

Jet was called back up too.

I wonder if he immediately takes the net with the call up?

CBJ website says he's getting the start.  Hope they can keep laine in check.  Don't need him getting a hattrick in his return back to Nationwide.

Laine's quote of the day is the Blue Jackets were too satisfied with losing.

He dealt with the front office, not me, but I want to believe that's not true.  It's difficult to argue with similar results season after season, though.

They finally didn't screw up an empty net situation.
