The good people who paid money to attend this game should be refunded.
Bedard.
It is a shame that they didn’t score two to get me a discount on jets pizza. I’m going to lose weight with this team. Let me be fat jackets.
Yikes, I picked a good game to skip. C’mon Bedard 🤞
This certainly looked like a team that had to make 4 AHL call ups in the last day
Two injuries, an illness, and a snoozed alarm. That’s certainly one way to tank!
if this team shows up every game left we finish 32nd, we control our destiny
Watching the Blackhawks game vs the Devils
Which Boqvist is hotter?
Thank goodness the team had a day off today. There definitely wasn’t a hockey game played at Nationwide Arena in Columbus. Nope.
That was the least amount of fun I’ve had at a game in person since the first week of this season. I’m not angry, just disappointed and bored.

Looks like TFW was not the only one who slept in yet the only one punished…but for real just showing up for things is one of the most important things in life! Hopefully he learned his lesson and for the rest of us another one for the tank
Tanking or not, that was a frustrating game to watch. But think about it… we’re only a little over a month away from the day that could change the franchise forever. I’m not going to pin all my hopes on getting Bedard (as awesome as that would be), because there’s no guarantee of that happening, but I have faith that we’ll draft top 4 and acquire someone who can make a huge impact on our team.
It’s been a long, rough season. Insanely terrible injury luck. Questionable coaching. Too many games to count where we got blown out. It felt like at the beginning of the season, way back in October, we had high hopes for what we could accomplish. But in a matter of weeks, those hopes were torn apart by the aforementioned circumstances. And now at the end of the season, it feels like every single thing has gone against us up until this point.
But despite what we’ve faced thus far, we still have hope on the horizon. Yes, I’m pissed that so many of our guys are injured. Yes, I’m pissed that we have to lose in order to gain the best chances of ensuring the 1st draft spot. Yet, I believe that next season will be better. I believe that all the hardships and bullshit we’ve been through won’t be for nothing. We’ll come out of this stronger and better. We’ve just gotta be a little more patient and persevere through this rough patch in our story. Soon enough, things will change.
LFG JACKETS! (And sorry if this whole thing comes off as melodramatic.)
Florida is in the playoffs and Pittsburgh is out? 0 points for us? I’ll take it.
I was at the game and I convinced myself that Marchenko was gonna score and get the rookie record. Now, that didn’t happen, but these are the kinds of things you hope for in this kind of year.
What I DID see was him break his stick. Ive seen it reported that he had three of these Vapor sticks, and that he was on his last remaining one and hoping it would last for the rest of the season. Can anyone explain to me why he would be running out of his preferred stick, and how bid of a deal it is to change??
