“@Aportzline: #CBJ G Steve Mason was yelling at taunting #Blackhawks fan behind #CBJ bench. Was not yelling at interim coach Todd Richards.”

Bob - I must have been sitting less than 10 feet from you! Next to me was my buddy, and next to him was a teenage kid with his dad. It was his dad who was jawing and Richards, Dorsett, Carter and Mason all gave him grief. He was very close to being removed from th arena.

Mason (along with other fans) is looking right at the same spot. I took a screenshot and circled the guy. https://twitter.com/#!/macserv/status/171017946859188224/photo/1/large

Looks like there was another guy as well. My heckler was on the other side of the runway.

Tried to read Richards' lips during the timeout but couldn't. I wondered if he was saying anything about being embarassed, even if he might say for the fans.
Yeah, Dorse showed some emotion but he also looked like a puss when he kicked his glove. I know that's what I would have said if it had been an opposing player.
Wow @ Mason. I thought Jackets took the play to them in the second but everything was finding the back of the CBJ net. Of course, it would have been nice is carrying the play had led to some goals, but geez, Mason.

Wife and I sat in our normal seats in 215 yesterday. Like many of you, we were surrounded by Hawks fans. But they were pretty tame if not sympathetic toward us. By the 5th and 6th goals they were just politely golf - clapping.
It's just a horrific reflection on management to see the building completely filled with the Indian head logo. We scratch RyJo so we can play Colton Gillies and Ryan Russell. We continue to run Aaron Johnson out there on defense. Allen York, recently pulled from an ECHL game, is our current backup. Yes, I know injuries are playing a role in some of these decisions but it's still appalling. Great job, Howson.
I would prefer pity to hearing the Hawks fans make fun of Wiz when he was hurt and hobbling off the ice or say that Dorse's battle with that 6' 8" monster was a "good fight".
Watched the game on tv. Honestly don't understand why so many posters here think we stunk worse than usual, ....as if this is news or anything new. It's your fault if you paid money expecting a different team to show up.
There's only so many times the "pride" card can be played by the coaches. Everybody, including the players are waiting for the trade bomb to drop. And yet we still won't be much better when it does come -so stop your whining or buy the tshirt, or go to the Rbar after first intermission.
I'm sorry, but I've gotta throw the flag on this.
JF, many fans paid for their tickets long before the result of this game was a forgone conclusion, in the summer when they were promised this year was going to be different.
To tell te people who are paying to keep the lights on to ST*U is a bit much to me. We're all entitled to our opinions whether we sit in California, the USVI or Timbuktu. But to tell those going to the game to "stop whining" when they paid full price for tickets (which isn't a small investment for some) expecting, at a minimum, a team that competes every game is not right.

I was in 102 row 2 the 3rd sear in. When Mason came off the ice I could tell he was p'd. The goalie asits at the end of the bench just in the other side of the isle from where I was sitting. I could not hear him but I saw him yelling looking down the bench. The trainer came and stood behind Mason and Richards was ignoring him. I could have misinterpreted what I saw since I could not hear what was being said..

Stop your whining Cap'n.
We're WAY past expecting a team that competes every night. Anybody who expects this team to be better than it is this late in the season is foolin themselves.

I dont think anyone really expects to see an amazing team suddenly. I think most are just expressing their disbelief that this circus show is allowed to continue with Priest and Howson running the show.

Yeah I was across in 103 - plenty of Hawks fans and it could have been any of them I guess. The kid sitting next to us told us his dad almost got kicked out.
