Post-Game Talk: Hellebuyck has arrived: Jets win 4-2

[jetsforever]

Very solid game by Helle, and by the team overall
Not sure why Laine didn't get more ice time (less than Tanev!), but that doesn't mean he can't score
I thought Trouba had a very strong game as well

Helle was awesome overall. Liking his game this year.
Wheeler is a tire fire, even before Mo overplayed the 1st line. Just off.
Poolman still looking good.
Mo needs to change his strategy. Gassed line 1 completely.
Time for some shifting, line change, something. Maybe see ESL next time?
Also we need Helle's offseason goalie coach.

Yeah don't understand the lack of Laine love by Mo

Paul Maurice was the worst Jet tonight.

Awful Ice Time Management. I bet every single poster on this board would have done a better job managing the lines tonight.

Trouba-Morrissey = Bonifide #1 Pairing.

Helle coming into his own? I sure hope so.

 

[DoingItCoolKiwi]

Well I guess Lowry line is the 2nd line then. Laine mvp though

edit. Actually Helle mvp. Laine best skater though

 

[nobody important]

Yeah exactly. Baseball not hockey.

Yeah exactly. It's harder to hit a ball with a stick than it is to get any part of your body on the damn puck.

 

[bluefan]

Another game where penalties could've made this a completely different game. Helle stole this one.

 

[Yukon Joe]

Winning > losing.

Happy tonight.

 

[Maukkis]

We got great defense and even better goaltending this time around. That sure made up for deliberately icing a one-line offense.

 

[Tom ServoMST3K]

I can't even feel good about this win...

 

[Inflict]

First two periods were a great example of how to play a game on the road. The 3rd... not so much.

Hellebuyck played incredible. He saved everything he could and gave no easy rebounds. Wheeler's play was overly criticized. He was okay. Had some great passes but some defensive brain farts. Kulikov's recent play is giving me hope that he's actually a pretty good player.

 

[KingBogo]

Great game by Helly. We hung in there. 2 in a row on the road. Let the complaining begin.

 

[Puckatron 3000]

Yep. Helle bailed us out bigtime. In some ways, that's kinda great news.

 

[Festinator]

Yeeesh I feel alive boys. Can someone text Maurice and tell him that our first line doesn't necessarily have our best faceoff man?

 

[CorgisPer60]

That game felt like a team without much skill in their game, choking and grinding up all of the speed and skill in the game. Glad they got the win, but that was a putrid game to watch as a fan.

You're implying that it ever ended.

 

[Snot Rocket]

Ah...Da Winz.

Life is good.

Rollercoaster going up.

...and the forums were quiet.

*Grumble Grumble* Something to complain about...think...THINK DAMMIT...um...."Paul Maurice SUCKS MORE THAN PAVY!" Yeah ....that's it

 

[Conflicted Habs fan]

Laine is being held back to make him more hungry. Solid game by our forcheckers, nice passing plays. They seem faster this year. Helly looks #1 goalie

 

[bustamente]

Wheelers with a bad start to his season, good get it out of the way, Helle seeked out help during the off season good on him and the results so far, another start on Saturday

 

[avgard]

Laine DIDNT get icetime to score the EASY EMPTY NET GOAL. HE COACH GAVE IT TO EHLERS!!! this is getting ridiculous. first line playing bad whole game. sheifele loosing pucks all the time, same as Wheeler, Ehlers at least skating hard but playing bad. change coming to line? no.
**** give laine proper playmates dude!!! and the all icetime at empty net and play him nonstop at PP. THIS IS GETTING RIDICULOUS!!!

FIRST LINE NOT SCORING...SO CHANGE SHOULD COME NOW! NO CHANCHES FOR THEM EITHER. BUT COACH GAVE ONE LEG PART OF LINE THE EMPTY NET GOAL. WHY IS THIS HAPPENING??? LAINE WAS AT THE ICE AT START OF EMPTY NET PERIOD THEN SUDDENLY AFTER 2 AND HALF SEC OF PLAY HE CHANGES LINE TO ICE!!!

 

[winnipegger]

- ESW weren't very good but also not too bad. Just meh

- Laine and Little looking better together

- The bottom 6 just doesn't threaten to score at all. I fear this isn't a good line combination going forward...You need to at least "look" dangerous during a game. They did nothing.

- The defence was very good and Hellebuyck was great

Canucks are the definition of mediocre. They will finish with 72 points and lots of tears

 

[Jet]

Dear Kuli: I like you.

Dear Buff: Keep fishing!

Absolute bullshit non call in the last few seconds on Ehlers, nice to see him get the EN anyway.

 

[KingBogo]

You're implying that it ever ended.

You have a point there

 

[objectiveposter]

Muarice with some of the worst icetime management I have ever seen. Wheeler playing gassed while the most talented forward only gets 13 minutes of ice time. Jets won despite some horrible coaching.

I thought trouba was terrible
