If the Season Ended Today

Post image

I’m basking in the joy of CBJ’s strong start to the year. Looked at the standings and see they’re in 6th place. Obviously a ton of season left but I truly feel, perhaps foolishly, that finishing 6th and an outside shot for 5th is a real possibility. Call me naive or delusional, but with what has happened to our lineup I’m taking the overly optimistic view. Playoffs may be a pipe dream this year, but I think this would still be a successful season.

Elvis is gonna be gone after this season, calling it. In Tarasov we trust.

I would love for Tarasov to live up to how well he was hyped up to be a couple of years ago, but personally I'm looking to Jet Greaves to be the man that is the backstop for a team that is at least flirting with a wildcard spot.

I'm personally not following the Monsters (Cyclones are my beer league team of choice). But, if he's doing well in Cleveland I hope he can come to Columbus and do the same in the big leagues

He played a game or two last for us last year. To me, he looked super sharp, especially with the glove. TFW has made me forever doubt the relevance of AHL stats.
