There is no denying that things are starting to shake up a bit with the Jets. The trade of Mahacek to the Columbus system and now word from the great guy at Arctic Ice Hockey that Arturs Kulda is coming back from the KHL to join the Jets. For some that is a more than a welcome relief, even in theory, from the recent work of Grant Clitsome.

No Passion
Last night, the Capitals fell 3-2 in Winnipeg. Even just watching it on television, you could get a sense of how intense the game was. The 15,000+ fans in the MTS Centre only added to this feel, who made it hard to hear Joe B at times. In the past, it has been like these games that has caused Ovechkin to elevate his game to a dominating pace. What we saw Saturday, though...

Scrabble
In 1938, American architect Alfred Mosher Butts created the game as a variation on an earlier word game he invented called Lexiko. The two games had the same set of letter tiles, whose distributions and point values Butts worked out meticulously performing a frequency analysis of letters from various sources including The New York Times. The new game, which he called "...
Curtis Sanford: A Bright Spot in Gloomy Columbus
With all the bad things going on with the Columbus Blue Jackets this season, there has been one bright spot for the hockey club.
No, it is not the play of Jeff Carter, Rick Nash, Vinny Prospal, Grant Clitsome, etc. Rather, it is the play of backup netminder Curtis Sanford.
With starting netminder Steve Mason nursing a head injury, Sanford has come in and provided the Blue Jackets...

BJ’s and Clitsome = Match Made in Heaven
I have to admit that in every Columbus Blue Jackets game I hope for Grant Clitsome to get a hat trick. When a name provides comedy on its own, it makes my writing that much easier. And while there was no hat trick Thursday night for ol’ Clitty, there was 2 Goals on an impressive 6 Shots. He seems to be gaining the trust of the BJ brass and his role is increasing (especially...
4 day overhaul doesn’t improve Jacket’s play
Oh my! The Columbus Blue Jackets have spent the last four days in a mini-training camp (of sorts). Head Coach Scott Arniel tried to ‘reset’ the team’s design, tactics and approach. The result – ONE HORRIBLY PLAYED GAME.
Period 1 – The CBJ were out-shot 16-4 in the first period. The Chicago Blackhawks came out flying around the ice. Steve Mason started the game...
