Post-Game Talk: Flyers 2 - Jets 0

[tbcwpg]

Still don't know who Ersson is but he was good.

 

[Jet]

Yup, sucks the winning steak ended but all in all not really mad.

 

[dcypher]

On to the next one, go jets go!

 

[MardyBum]

Not a bad game to end the streak. Could have been a different game with a bit more finish. Some PP goals would be nice too. Philly is a really good defensive team this year.

 

[Jets4Life]

All good things must come to an end. Perfetti played awesome, but the Jets need to put some pucks in the net. Hopefully Scheifele will return on Tuesday. Connor should be back in less than a week too.

 

[Channelcat]

Solid effort all things considered.

 

[GNP]

I think I'll go and watch the Ice Bowl out in Kansas City. Mighty cold there, same as here, for an NFL game.

 

[KingBogo]

A depleted roster ran into a hot goalie. It happens. Really nice run while it lasted.

 

[Hunter368]

Can’t be upset with that game down KC & Mark.

 

[wpgallday1960]

Can’t win ‘em all. Credit to Flyers and especially their goalie. Game could have gone either way but for him.

 

[johnnyonthspot]

Seconded.

We knew it was coming. Doesn't make it any easier to swallow on the backs of a 8 game winning streak. Poor puck management, bad luck, and a good goalie on the other end were the difference. Credit to the Flyers for playing a perfect road game. Stupid f***s. Hope they lose their wifi on the flight home.

Funny thing is Oilers extended theirs to 10 games by winning the special teams battle , which the Jets rarely win.

McDavid is basically a cheat code with the man advantage

 

[Aggie204]

Hopefully Chef is back and KFC makes his return against the Islanders.

Not too upset about the result, I hope the Jets get the rest they need and get back on a roll. GoJetsGo.

 

[Slimy Sculpin]

I'm ok with this. The streak had to end sooner or later. It does suggest to me that Jets can't stand pat at the trade deadline. We need at least one more forward with a bit of a scoring touch. And actually I'm ok with our D especially with the best goaltending tandem in the league.

 

[FlyerFire]

You guys have a great team this year. We have played beyond our means. Look forward to watching the Jets in the playoffs.

 

[bustamente]

hoping scheifele is back on tuesday and connor soon after

You know at this point of the season and where we are in the standings I might just let him have the week off and really heal whatever is ailing him. If both are ready next Saturday in Ottawa that would be great

 

[johnnyonthspot]

McDavid is basically a cheat code with the man advantage

They were 1 for 5 but got a pp in ot and yes it is too easy with him.
Bottom line is Jets need to find a way to be more consistent on the pp.

Some depth scoring would be nice but not at any cost.

Appreciate the kind words! You guys took over in the 2nd and were impressive overall on a back to back. Not a Torts fan but the Flyers are performing well!

 

[Aphid]

Keeping the three goals or less streak is still pretty important. Shows that even when the team is playing kind of crappy, they're still being defensively sound. You're going to win way more times only allowing that many goals than you lose.

 

[macmaroon]

Winnipeg simply ran out of gas. Flyers played well and deserved the win. Ersson played lights out and made some pretty good saves. Jets had an amazing run, so let's start a new one next game. I give this match two Rocky's out of five...

The Prediction Contest for the game against the New York Islanders has been posted for your guesses. Don't forget to sign up to create a GDT, the season is half way done, but I still need your help in filling in lots of spots. See you on Tuesday! Good night...

 

[DeepFrickinValue]

What’s with goalies stepping up against Winnipeg.

 

[Royale With Cheese]

Flyers played well, and their goalie was on fire.

Tough to see a streak end, but it was gonna happen eventually.

How about that Mason Appleton tho.

The Good:

Really liked the pushback in the 3rd. I was pissed watching this game the first 2 periods but was in a good mood by the end, eventhough we lost. You're gonna get goalied every once in a while. Tonight sadly we ran into Samuel Vejmelka.

Lowry did an admirable job filling in for 55 and didn't look out of place in that role. 27 and 13 great, unlucky not to get atleast one, esp since 27 is nicked up a bit.

2nd line with a great effort. I thought Iafallo esp had one of his better games, if that play towards the end where he spun off his check stole the puck and got a shot off falling down had gone in, the roof would have blown off that place.

This is the type of game where Jets really miss Connor.

The bad:

Not a great game there for Pionk and Samberg I thought. Samberg wasn't awful but not his usual self. Pionk gave away the puck in his own zone too much.

What the hell was going on the PK? How are two Flyers behind both Jets D? This was happening in the last Flyers PP as well so it was not just a missed assignment.

The ugly:

22... simply awful in the first 2 periods. Not just howlers, I mean little plays like not being ready to receive a breakout pass in the neutral zone, misjudging an incoming pass and getting it in his skate, putting guys offside killing momentum of his line's shift. It sucks that the coach is gonna think it was Kupari being rusty. Once the Jets are healthy I think Iafallo might be a better fit on the 3rd line. I think 22 is trying hard but it's just not there for him right now and I think he might be better in a 4th line role.
