You knew Bob was special when as soon as he was traded here, Flyers fans were on our blogs wishing him success and speaking of his work ethic and what a great guy he is. For me there are few players you with success for when they go, and the amount of love BOB has gotten from Flyer fans even now shows you how special he is. Nothing like some good and consistant goaltending to uplift our team. GO BOB! Go UMBY (heart and soul of the team for a long time)! Go Jack Johnson (came to the Jackets a happy camper)! Go Jackets! Come on playoffs!

Yep! I still adore Bob. I am secretly pleased you guys are headed into our division next season. About the only thing I do like about it, as I'll get to see more of Bob!
He really is special and I'm thrilled that he is playing well for you. I agree that this can only be a good thing for not only his confidence but also the whole team's.
He was mishandled in Philly. And once they jumped for Bryz he had no place to grow. I think Holmgren did him a solid by trading him to a place he could play. Cuz we knew he could!
