The bits and pieces post
Right now, It seems like I am stuck in the summer doldrums

But as we wait for the Rick Nash saga to play out, there has been hockey going on. It may be me, but it seems like there has been a lot more coverage of the Blue Jackets development camp then in past years. I have posted several blog posts in the HUB and will continue to do so as they trickle in. I thank the people who have actually gone down and watched activity and reported back to those of us who didn’t for one reason or another.
The good news is that all reports have been positive. The better news is that the positive reports have not been confined to just a coupla of players. Depending on viewpoints and viewing points, there have been accolades for many players from goalies to skaters. The even better news is that these amateur scouting reports recognize the ages and backgrounds of the players and report that the talent hopper will be feeding players to Springfield and the Blue Jackets for several years.
We Want the Cup
Retired Engineering Manager. Moved to Columbus in 2008. Started following the Blue Jackets and loved it. I wanted more hockey and started following the blogs. I found the blogs had information and ideas faster than the news media. I joined the Fire That Cannon Dec 12,2011 as a writer and on March 25,2012 I accepted the position of editor. I want to improve hockey interest in Columbus by making the blog interesting and positive so it is a integral part of the Blue Jacket Blogging groups.
