The Jackets frustrate the hell out of me right now. I think I'm skipping this one.
John Tortorella repeatedly talked about the Blue Jackets not respecting the Panthers last night. He seemed completely flummoxed as to why, in last place, they would not respect each and every team ahead of them in the standings, and while I don't know if that was the reason for such an impotent offensive attack against a team that just played the night before, it gives me pause.
It's becoming clearer and clearer to me that the club--specifically Tortorella--seems to be telling us that the playoffs this year are no longer even on their radar as a goal.
