MUTHA CANUCKAZ 6, BLUE JACKETS 3
Good home ice win to avenge the loss in Ohio on the road trip.
Goal scorers: Artem Chubarov twice (not known for goal scoring), Markus Naslund twice (with two assists), Magnus Arvedson (one assist), and Matt Cooke (one assist) all lit the lamp at the expense of Jacket goalie Fred Brathwaite.
Other things sticking out on the stat sheet are three assists from Brendan Morrison and two assists from Todd Bertuzzi. The other thing is 11 penalty minutes from Jarkko Ruutu, seven of which were incurred on what appears to be a fight that happened with 36 seconds left in the game.
But what also happened tonight was that at least two players off the top line were involved in four of the six goals that were scored; a very good sign indeed.
Johan Hedberg got the start tonight (about time) and stopped 13 of 16 shots, once again, not too many shots being directed at the Canuck netminders.
