Jackets to retire Nash's #61 March 5 against Boston

He was the Blue Jackets for a decade. Not really interested in seeing what they would have looked like without Rick Nash. Good for Rick!

Hopefully they can beat the Capitals tonight. Ovechkin passed Brett Hull for #3 all time in goals scored in Columbus. 1-1. Kuraly, born in Columbus, scored his first goal for the Jackets tonight.

I still have a Rick Nash jersey I bought way back in 2004. Glad to see this.

Laine, Korpisalo show off their talents with painting project

The Blue Jackets players brought some skills to the table in a recent video

When NHL International invited Blue Jackets players Patrik Laine and Joonas Korpisalo to take part in a painting project last week when the team was in New York City, it matched two Finns with somewhat similar personalities but very different skill sets.

On one hand was Korpisalo, the reserved goalie who has a skill with a paintbrush in his hand, which he proved two years ago when his painting of a snow-swept Christmas tree as part of the team's annual card painting project impressed observers.

Then there's Laine, a man of many talents (when he's not on injured reserve, as he is at the moment), but his generally come with a hockey stick in his hand and not a paintbrush. While his flashiness on the ice fills up highlight reels, his artistic ability appears to be a notch below that of Korpisalo.

And that was proven when the two put paint to brush to canvas for the piece, which was used to promote the two in their native Finland. Challenged to paint portraits of one another while speaking -- and goofing on one another and themselves -- in their native language, Laine and Korpisalo put together works of diverging quality.

Fortunately they are better hockey players than painters.
