In this episode I will discuss (well, really just rant and rave about):
1. Jarmo. Does he deserve any praise for this season? Has he really done anything bad this season?
2. Trade bait. With another lost season, the Jackets may be sellers at the deadline. Who could and should be moved?
3. The Elvis debacle. Admittedly this news hit yesterday and threw off my plan for the episode. I'll touch on this but will save additional discussion for next week once the dust settles.
I hope you enjoy!

Welcome to Episode 8. Today's topics of discussion:
1. Adam Fantilli. I haven't dedicated much time to talking about him in previous episodes, but he deserves some significant discussion.
2. Boone Jenner: All Star.
3. Five bright spots. It can't be all gloom all the time, right?

Well, is it? We watched some pretty entertaining hockey in the game against Toronto. Some of our young stars are starting to shine. I find myself looking forward to watching Jackets games WAY more than last season. I'll talk about that and...
1. Blue Jackets defensive woes and who is to blame.
2. Five bright spots (because it can't ALL be gloom all the time)
3. Some fans jumping ship?

In this episode I'll talk about:
1. What I think an achievable goal should be for the Blue Jackets as they progress through this wasted season (from a playoff perspective).
2. The "win" against the Maple Leafs. Admittedly, this is just me ranting about it.
3. Two quick thoughts about the decision to put Fantilli on the 4th line against the Devils and CBJ fans/media not being very nice to each other.

2. Patrick Laine needs to be traded
