Blues 3, Blue Jackets 2: Turnover leads to frustrating loss
Saturday, November 17, 2007 3:41 AM
By Aaron Portzline
THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH
ST. LOUIS -- The Blue Jackets and Blues played a tactical masterpiece last night, a mentally taxing game in which the first club to blink probably loses.
It took 57 minutes for that to happen, but a costly turnover by Blue Jackets center Sergei Fedorov led to a go-ahead goal and a 3-2 win by the Blues in front of 19,150.

Jackets notebook: MacInnis' shot made lasting impression

The Blue Jackets' Manny Malhotra reaches for the puck as the Blues' Erik Johnson defends.
ST. LOUIS -- Before the Blue Jackets played the Blues last night in the Scottrade Center, the Blues honored one of their greats, defenseman Al MacInnis.
MacInnis was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame on Monday.
During a 21-year NHL career that included 1,416 games, 1,274 points, a Stanley Cup, a Norris Trophy for best defenseman and a Conn Smythe Trophy for playoff MVP, MacInnis became known mostly for his slap shot.

The Blue Jackets played great. I was ready to bust my TV when Fedorov turned that puck over. I couldn't believe it.
Maybe I'm out of line, but I'll be happy to see him go. It just irks me that he's the kind of player he is and costs the club as much money as he does.

Re: Fedorov's $6.08 million and Foote's $4.6 million
I'm sure that next year the Blue Jackets can better utilize the $10.68 million they are paying Federov & Foote (i.e. sign several free agents that will vastly improve the overall performance of the team).

The Blue Jackets were looking good until failing to score on the 2-man advantage in the 3rd period. St. Louis took the momentum at that point and dominated the rest of the game. Hat's off to Manny Legace. He outplayed Norrena.

Blue Jackets notebook
Penalty-kill streak on line
Red Wings struck for two power-play goals vs. Jackets last time

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH
 Chris Lee St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Paul Kariya scores a first-period goal past Blue Jackets goaltender Fredrik Norrena during a 3-2 Blues victory Friday night in St. Louis. The Blue Jackets were 6 of 6 in penalty-kill situations.
The Blue Jackets arrived in Joe Louis Arena on Nov. 9 with the best penalty kill in the NHL.
They left a few hours later a humbled bunch, having allowed two power-play goals in a 4-1 loss to the Red Wings. The Jackets know they'll have to do better today, when they play the Red Wings in Nationwide Arena.
