Put a BOW (ness) on it!

Las Vegas - Skating on to the NHL ice in Columbus for a look at the Blue Jackets/Kings game tonight. If you wanna talk about a GINORMOUS turn around, check this out. The Jackets were sitting in LAST PLACE in the Eastern Conference on January 12 when they fired Dean Evason and replaced him with Rick Bowness. No one, including this guy, your guy, expected the next two months to turn into solid gold. After all, Bowness came to Columbus with a kinda ugly 310-408-48 lifetime record behind the bench of seven different clubs. At the time, the Blue Jackets were sitting at
18-26 with no hope of making it into the playoffs. Since then, Columbus has put together a 13-4 record and is now just two points out of the last Wild Card spot in the East. Amazing! They've won eight of the last 11 at home, while the Kings have lost seven of the last nine overall. Buying a Jacket, it's Blue and it's money in the Bank of Eck.
