r/BlueJackets

EA has released the player rankings for the upcoming NHL 27. This is a list of where certain Jacket players are ranked in the Top 100 by category.

For the most part I am okay with these OVR ratings, but here are a couple grievances:

-I think Marchenko is slightly too high, and I would have him as an 88 Overall, (but with a high ceiling for growth, [although I do understand the argument for having him at 89.])

-I would flip-flop Kent Johnson and Adam Fantilli. I love KJ, but in what universe do they feel he's better than Fantilli?

-Why are they doing Jet so dirty?! Like... mind-bogglingly below value. Someone at EA must have it out for him.

What is everyone else's thoughts on all of these? Is there anything you would change? Or do you feel someone from the Jackets deserves to be on this list that is missing from it?

Just imagine he’s got our jersey on

Title, good to see Werenski beeing the nr 1 LHD (along side Quinn Hughes)

If Bob started a podcast and called the jackets games like he used to, I'd join a monthly Patreon. Gonna miss him

I got this brand new hat, thinking it was a CBJ hat and it…has a Wild logo?

I’ve been wondering about this for a while: did all jerseys with the original design have that subtle sublimated stripe pattern on the torso?

I’ve been looking at a ton of eBay listings and game photos from that era, and some jerseys clearly seem to have it (both Pro Player and CCM) while a lot of others appear to be completely plain navy blue/white.

My first thought was that the pattern just doesn’t photograph particularly well, so depending on the lighting (especially in an arena), it can be really hard to see. But then I came across some eBay listings with very sharp, high-quality photos where the jersey still looks completely plain to me.

So, can anyone in the fanbase shed some light on this? Was the sublimated striping actually present on every jersey, or were there different versions/production runs without it? And if you own one of these jerseys, does yours have the stripes?

Thank you.

This is also my alma mater so, go Cats and go Jackets

This is still in my app not saying which preseason game I get to go to. When will that be assigned?
