Blue Jackets @ Leafs - Jan. 9th, 7:30pm - TSN, TSN 1050

[ZBBM]

Actually still don't think Kessel touched it. Didn't look like the puck changed direction at all.

If you look at the shot from behind the net it does change direction, I was looking for it.  Or so it seemed to me.

I think he pretty clearly did, just kept it going in the same direction.  You could see it touching his stick.

Not that it matters...

I thought it looked like the puck sped up when it passed Kessel's stick

 

[Stronger Than All]

2 passes to Kessel that were directed into the net by Blue Jackets. 

In all seriousness.  I thought they played well and I'm glad that Phaneuf wipe out didn't ruin things.

 

[ZBBM]

Busta, Potvin, now THAT's a period where I can agree that they played better. 

 

[ZBBM]

"How does it feel blah blah blah?"  God Almighty.

@mirtle: Leafs possession under Carlyle: 44.2%

Hard work doesn't jive with analytics? Even smart broadcasters just throw the A-word around for no reason.

 

[TML fan]

Can't let him walk in like that. Gotta challenge.

 

[Stickytape]

Nice flamingo, Dion.

 

[Chev-boyar-sky]

Glad I was very wrong about the shutout!

 

[Tigger]

How JVR knew it should have been his goal? Overheard during the team exeunt after the first, in a mumbling fugue, 'nice pass, nope, not feelin' it boys'....

 

[ZBBM]

Bozak has been very good.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

That Clarkson stare-down made like $3,000 of his contract worth it.

 

[Deebo]

Clarkson is fuming.

Lost In Space last game was worth another 3k.  Baby steps.

Screw video challenges.  Part of the charm of the sport is that you don't always get a proper call -- just like in real life.

I'm fine with missed calls when it comes to penalties. But you should always be able to get goals called correctly, one way or another. That means looking at things like goalie interference especially.

I'm fine with video review (initiated by refs).  I don't want coaches' challenges.

That 15 seconds was the loudest I've heard the ACC in a non-WJC game this season.
