It almost seems an eternity ago that the Blue Jackets were smashing the Blues in St. Louis to really get their winning ways going. Maybe there’s enough gas in the tank to make things interesting for the final 17 games…

Just prior to the All-Star Break the CBJ had lost 7 of their previous 8 games and were limping their way to another lottery draft pick. The dug deep to get 2 points (in OT) in Florida, and then waltzed into St. Louis and smashed the Blues 5-2 on a Saturday night.
The Blues and Jackets are both limping into this game, also losers of 4 straight games.
No word on a CBJ starting goalie, but the Blues are starting Ty Conklin in net tonight.
It’s a very deflating feeling, knowing the season is maybe days away from being over (only about 3 or 4 losses to give)… but as a fan this is when the team needs your support the most.
Go Jackets.
