Sounds like that is a good pick up for the Jackets. I think this year will just matter on what Hitchcock can do to the team during the off season. I would like to see them do good. They have the tallent, they just haven't figured out how to make it work game to game. When they play on top, they win, but the next game they play like crap and they loose. They do seem to have a better schedule this year with less games back, to back, to back. Hopefully that will allow more rest between games and they can do something this year. I think what seem to really kill them last year was how much hype they got before the season started and how all the major sports people were saying to watch out of the Jackets. And they just didn't have it when they came back. I wish them good luck and I hope for the best.
