Here's 10 seconds of Rick Bowness' rant followed by five minutes of reaction from the CBJ players.

#CBJ D Erik Gudbranson on facing expectations in Columbus market vs. others. “Everyone has mirrors in their house. At the end of the day, you want to win. It may be less here than Calgary or Vancouver but you gotta deal with yourself and expectations you have for yourself.”



#CBJ head coach Rick Bowness, steam coming out of his ears, was extremely unhappy with his team’s effort tonight. And correlated it to why the Blue Jackets struggled to get wins down the stretch. “I don’t know if I’m back, but if I’m back I’m changing this culture.”

#CBJ coach Rick Bowness just went on a post-game tirade for the ages. Ripped into players for their shameful effort tonight and down the stretch. He was red-faced and spitting mad. “Like, I don't know if I'm back (next season), but if I'm back, I' I'm changing this culture.”




Caps head coach Spencer Carbery confirms Alex Ovechkin will play tonight at #CBJ even with Washington being eliminated from playoff contention. Ovechkin will play in all 82 games at age 40.



Call it tone deaf or whatever This is honestly disgraceful and probably a good summation of why this organization continues to fail and disappoint fans Maybe one day we'll get a team that takes itself seriously and aspires to actually win #cbj
