Blue Jackets Score: January 5, 2017
Game 37 / Check out the whole project here
It’s okay. Yes we lost last night. Yes we ended a 16 game streak just short of the number 1 record. Yes we didn’t even get a puck in the net. But guess what, sometimes that happens. You move on, and guess what: we are only halfway through the season! That means we have an opportunity to start many more streaks and we learned a very important lesson. That the Columbus Blue Jackets aren’t a joke. It’s one thing to be lucky (or unlucky) for a few games. By showing our capabilities to win 16 in a row that proves consistency and skill. And that means way more than a single win or loss. So wipe away the tears and cover your wounds Columbus. We have 45 games to go.
