Week 19 Power Rankings - For The Hell Of It E-mail
Written by LTL   

Hey... why not right?

CBSSports.com
Rank: 28 (unchanged)
Rumor mill is starting to churn with Jackets names, with R.J. Umberger getting increasing mention.

ESPN.com
Rank: 25 (+3)
The Blue Jackets are in a win-lose-win-lose pattern now, which is a big step forward for a team that was doing a lot of lose-lose-lose through the first half of the season.

CBC.ca
Rank: 26 (unchanged)
They've been road kill this season.

TSN.ca
Rank: 28 (unchanged)
7-6 in the last 13 games, the Blue Jackets haven't been able to make a real run at a playoff spot, but six of the next seven are at home, so maybe that's the time. 
Key Injuries: D Rostislav Klesla (groin).

ColumbusDispatch.com
Rank: 27 (+1)
One of the few bright spots this season has been the long-awaited arrival of defenseman Kris Russell.

FoxSports.com
Rank: 27 (-1)
(.450) The Blue Jackets dropped two of four last week. The club comes into Week 18 having lost five of its last seven games..

CNNSI.com
Rank: 26 (+4)
Compare their dispirited play in a 4-1 loss to the Kings to their gut-check in a 3-2 OT win against the Blues. It had to be incredibly frustrating for their fans to watch several Jackets raise the white flag early against L.A. (at home, no less), and then fight back to avenge two last-minute goals from the Blues on the road. Leadership issues on the ice and behind the bench continue to haunt a club that has fallen out of contention by winning just four of 10

THN.com
Rank: 26 (+1)
Rick Nash and R.J. Umberger have stepped up their games, scoring a combined 17 points in their past eight games

Sportsnet.ca
Rank: 26 (+1)
Easy to see why a team like the Jackets are struggling when their top 16 scorers are a combined minus-149.

Yahoo.com
Not released

META-SCORE: 26.5

High: 25 (ESPN)

Low: 30 (CBS, TSN)

There you have it.  Expect every one of these outlets to mention Hitch next week.
