| |  | COLUMBUS:
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - The top three topics on sports talk shows in this city are usually Ohio State football, Ohio State football recruiting and Ohio State football's spring practices.
The Columbus Blue Jackets haven't upset that pecking order, although they are elbowing their way into the conversation.
Dead last in the league early in the NHL's shortened last season, the Blue Jackets suddenly found the winning touch. They went 19-5-5 down the stretch, energizing their fan base and shocking a lot of opponents used to walking over the 12-year-old franchise.
With the addition of free agent Nathan Horton to go with Vezina Trophy-winning goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky and a solid if largely unknown roster of proven pros, the Blue Jackets are expecting big things as they prep for a season of promise. | | VANCOUVER:
VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) - Like it or not, there is a new culture in Vancouver.
Whether the new atmosphere surrounding the Canucks leads the franchise to its long-awaited first Stanley Cup championship remains to be seen.
But coach John Tortorella is sure going to try.
Following five division championships, two Presidents trophies, for the league's most points, and a Stanley Cup finals appearance in seven years under Alain Vigneault, Vancouver brass determined the Canucks needed a tougher voice. So Vigneault, the franchise leader in wins, was fired May 22 and replaced by John Tortorella, himself fired by the New York Rangers May 29.
Tortorella comes with an edge - he can be hard on the media, and often calls out his players in press conferences - but he wins, and that's what Vancouver needs. He won a Stanley Cup in 2004 behind Tampa Bay's bench, and took the Rangers to the Eastern Conference finals in 2012. |
| | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PA SPORTSTICKER HOCKEY PREVIEW (COLUMBUS-VANCOUVER) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*Blue Jackets-Canucks Preview* ==============================
Columbus (8-11-3) at Vancouver (11-8-4), 10:00 p.m. EDT
John Tortorella wasn't happy about seeing his Vancouver Canucks lose to one of the NHL's worst teams the last time they took the ice.
The fiery coach seems to have made line changes as the Canucks face another such opponent and look to end a five-game slide Friday night against the visiting Columbus Blue Jackets.
Vancouver (11-8-4) fell 3-2 in a shootout to Florida on Tuesday, and its 0-3-2 slide is its longest since an 0-5-3 skid Jan. 9-31, 2009. Tortorella wasn't happy afterward.
"It's lack of respect and we have no business (showing) a lack of respect to any hockey team," he said. "In the situation we're in going into tonight's game, I just don't know what we're thinking as far as how we started the game.
"I can't explain it."
Tortorella may employ some changes seen at Thursday's practice to try to jump-start an offense that has produced six goals during this slide. The new top line had Henrik Sedin along with Chris Higgins and Jannik Hansen, while Mike Santorelli was centering a group with Daniel Sedin and Ryan Kesler.
Henrik Sedin has two points in his last six games while Daniel has none in that span. Tortorella also held a team meeting Thursday.
"We'll learn from the last game," the coach told the Canucks' official Twitter account. "We'll learn our lesson."
It may be easy to get back on track against the Blue Jackets (8-11-3), as the Canucks have won the last six home meetings.
Columbus improved to 2-1-0 on this five-game Canadian trip with Wednesday's 2-1 victory over Calgary as defenseman Nikita Nikitin scored in overtime. The Blue Jackets suffered a humiliating 7-0 loss to Edmonton the night before.
"As a coach, you go in and challenge your group," coach Todd Richards said. "There were some questions I had coming out of the Edmonton game. To me, they responded the right way."
Reigning Vezina Trophy winner Sergei Bobrovsky made 23 saves after he was pulled against the Oilers.
"To have a chance to play right away, to reset, it's good," Bobrovsky said. "You don't think about the game before. It was a bad game. You have a chance to win and you get that good feeling again."
The Blue Jackets won 3-1 over the visiting Canucks on Oct. 20. Ryan Johansen and R.J. Umberger each had a goal and an assist.
Neither Bobrovsky nor Roberto Luongo started that game, and those goalies figure to get the nod Friday.
Bobrovsky posted a 0.62 goals-against average while starting all three meetings against Vancouver last season, with each going past regulation. Luongo is 6-1-3 with a 2.15 GAA in 10 home starts with the Canucks against the Blue Jackets.
Columbus, playing without injured stars Marian Gaborik and Nathan Horton, expects to see one player return Friday. Forward Matt Calvert could play for the first time after missing 19 games with an abdominal injury.
The Blue Jackets are 1 for 35 on the power play in the last 11 meetings, while the Canucks have the league's best penalty kill at 88.2 percent.
