It's What Your Right Arm's For
Some of you are probably wondering.... What in the hell is that?
Well THAT is what you see when you've had too many of these bad boys:
Courage Beer... It's what your right arm is for! Seriously, that was their slogan. You can't make this stuff up!
As for the game, the Dallas Stars used both arms and pretty much wrapped up the Jackets in this one....
It Doesn't Get Any Better Than This!
It does get better than this... But for this season anyways, this team hasn't played much better than this!
Plus... I've been dying to tie that slogan to Davidge as unfortunately there is no "goal scorer's goal" one out there...

"It&...

The Jackets dropped another 1 goal game but for what it's worth...
1. ...I thought this team deserved a better fate in this game. Yeah they didn't score and took too many penalties but unlike many of their previous losses, I really liked how this team competed throughout the lineup. Not sure if it's b/c they are playing looser under Richards or if it's the...
