Blue Jackets Score: March 7, 2017

Game 65 / Check out the whole project here

Game Highlights:
This 2-0 victory makes 3 shutouts in a row for Bob. Did we make a deal with the Devils when I wasn't looking or are the Jackets just blessed?

-The Jackets were outplayed. But Bob was not. And even though there is no I in team, after 33 saves he definitely was the reason we came out with a victory on this one.
-It must have been fate because Bob was named the 2nd NHL Star of the Week the day before this performance.
-This is also the Devils' eighth straight loss (their 7th was on Sunday against the Jackets)
-Obviously, CBJ was flawless in the net (shout out to Savard and the other defensive walls who played as well), but as far as offense goes we were lagging. It wasn't until the third period that Oliver Bjorkstrand and Cam Atkinson scored.
-Cam now has 30 goals this season and doesn't seem keen on slowing down anytime soon.
-There was a moment of anxiety in the first period when New Jersey had a goal (by Dalton Prout of course) waived off because of a high stick by Taylor Hall.
-Now that we've hit yet another CBJ milestone this season, it is time to work on our injury list! Calvert and Sedlak are out for groin injuries and Anderson won't be on the ice for 7-10 days due to a knee injury. Luckily T.J. Tynan from Cleveland was able to step in last night and make up for the (hopefully) short time loss.
