A victory tonight for the Jackets would be nothing more than a moral one, but it would go a long way in building confidence in the young players. Derick Brassard and especially Jake Voracek have looked great lately, for them to lead the way in a victory against one of the top teams in the league is nothing but a bonus. There is that other elephant in the room however, the elephant that says that the more the Jackets win down this meaningless stretch, the further away from a lottery pick they are.
