    Ep. 56: Arm Chair GM: May 2026 Edition

    The Blue Jackets have locked up Charlie Coyle, signing him to a six year contract.  What else could and should be done to get this team back to the playoffs next season?  In this episode, I'll pretend that I take over the General Manager duties of the Jackets and discuss what I would do.  From players to coaches to even jerseys, I'll discuss the changes I would make.

    Ep. 55: Grading the 2025-26 Blue Jackets

    I listen to several Blue Jackets podcasts.  On one I really enjoy (Cannon Balls with Michael Arace), his crew gave the Blue Jackets grades based on their 2025-26 season performance.  As a teacher, I was very intrigued and thought that I should take a stab at grading the Jackets myself.  So here you go, my player grades for the 2025-26 season...as well as some other tidbit of CBJ news!

    Ep. 54: The Pain that April Brings

    Want to hear a guy rant about the Blue Jackets' disappointing season for an hour?  Well you are in the right place.  The 2025-26 season is in the books and ended with, you guessed it, the Jackets missing out on the playoffs yet again.  In this episode I'll talk about what happened (this time) and what needs to be done going forward to maybe, somehow, finally become a playoff team again.

    Ep. 53: Never Count This Team In

    Misery loves company.  That is the purpose of this episode.  If you are a frustrated Blue Jackets fan like me right now, join me and lets commiserate together.  I don't have any profound insights or perspective today.  You won't come away with any new Blue Jackets knowledge.  Everything I have to say, you probably already know.  You'll just know that you aren't the only one feeling the frustration yet again with this team.

    Ep. 52: Being Wrong Has Never Been So Much Fun

    I admit it freely.  I was wrong about a lot this season.  The Jackets are currently fighting for a playoff spot and making me eat crow...and I am absolutely ok with that!  In this episode I will talk about players I misjudged and where the Jackets currently stand with only a few weeks to go in the season.

    Episode 51: Trade Deadline 2026

    The 2026 trade deadline has passed.  The Blue Jackets find themselves fighting for a playoff spot.  In this episode I'll talk about their trade deadline acquisition of Conor Garland and what it means for the lineup moving forward.  I'll also discuss what I think about the Jackets' chances for making the playoffs (spoiler alert: their not good).  And I'll tell you my thoughts on Dimitri Voronkov's recent healthy scratch and what that means moving forward.
