Fuck em...that's all.
The Randomizer has spoken. Today’s selection is Colton Gillies.
Claimed off waivers from Minnesota in January of 2012, Colton Gillies brought his physical style of play to the Blue Jackets. The 2012-2013 season would be his final in the NHL. He would finish his hockey career overseas.
Did anyone catch the Michigan fight song being played after the 3rd goal tonight?
Play starts at 3:04. Started on the third line at center with Mason West (Chicago) and Shane Vansaghi (Philadelphia). Great shot from the top of the slot, loved how quickly he won the puck, got off the wall, and drove to the inside.
Still a long way to go, and this might end up meaning nothing, but I'm glad to see all his hard work the past couple years got him off to a good start this season. Hope it continues. I'm rooting for the kid.
The Randomizer has spoken. Today’s entry is Luca Pinelli.
A fourth round pick by the Blue Jackets in 2023, Luca Pinelli had a productive AHL campaign last season that also earned him a 3 game call-up to the NHL. We’ll be seeing him again soon.
The Randomizer has spoken. Today’s entry is Steve Mason.
The 2008-2009 season would be the first time ever the Blue Jackets made the playoffs, largely in part to Steve Mason’s magical rookie season. With an injury to Pascal Leclaire, Steve Mason was called up to the NHL after playing only 3 career AHL games. And the rest is history. A third round pick in 2006, Mason eventually became the starting goalie for the Jackets. He recorded TEN shutouts and propelled the Jackets to a playoff appearance against Detroit. He would easily win the Calder Memorial Trophy as the rookie of the year.
While Steve Mason was unable to consistently produce at the level he did in his rookie season, he still had a respectable NHL career. The Blue Jackets traded Mason to Philadelphia for Michael Leighton and a third round pick on April 3, 2013.
I will always cherish the 2008-2009 season. I was going through some stuff in my personal life back then and watching the Blue Jackets was my escape.
