Post-Game Talk: Jets 2 - Hawks 1 Wow

[Howard Chuck]

On the Kings board they are talking about a buyout.

That guy seriously needs to give his head a shake. All that work and time and effort and money and all the sacrifices by his parents, and this is what he does with it.

We all know it would be at least a game. If it's a groin strain, probably a minimum of 4 weeks?

He hasn’t looked as dominant in the last few games. Maybe it was something that just came to a head now.

I was thinking the exact same thing. Might have been nagging him.

Better to give him a couple of weeks rest and therapy

If Kupari performs anywhere near where Iafallo and Vilardi are performing we'll have to put HFKings on a collective suicide watch. Or a Rob Blake homicide watch.

Nice blast from the past reference!

That was electric in person.

Ehlers put on a clinic in skating and puck control all night. He was amazing.

The Jets have played the fewest games against teams currently sitting in a playoff spot (13 GP, with a 7-5-1 record = .577). I'd say that playing the Jets is somewhat detrimental to your chances of making the playoffs, but Vancouver has played the most games against teams sitting in a playoff spot (21, with a 15-5-1 record = .738).

Here are the records vs. current playoff teams of the Top 17 teams by points% (I couldn't include the Caps, who are garbage, and leave out the Pens, who are not...so Top 17). Sorted by points% vs playoff teams:

BOS: 14 GP, 9-2-3, .750
VAN: 21 GP, 15-5-1, .738
VGK: 19 GP, 12-5-2, .684
PIT: 18 GP, 9-5-4, .611
NYI: 18 GP, 8-5-5, .583
WPG: 13 GP, 7-5-1, .577
NYR: 14 GP, 8-6-0, .571
TOR: 15 GP, 6-4-5, .566
COL: 16 GP, 9-7-0, .562
FLA: 18 GP, 9-7-2, .555
CAR: 19 GP, 9-8-2, .526
PHI: 18 GP, 8-8-2, .500
DAL: 17 GP, 7-7-3, .500
WAS: 19 GP, 7-8-4, .474
LAK: 18 GP, 6-7-5, .472
EDM: 20 GP, 8-11-1, .425
NJD: 14 GP, 5-8-1, .393

Yeah the Jets have played a lot of crap teams this year so far, but they've still been pretty good vs. non-crap teams.

Your stats are wrong ... Jets have 12 wins against the teams on your list
Tampa 2 wins
Florida 2 wins
Avs 2 wins
Canes 1 win
Bos 1 win
Kings 1 win
Preds 1 win
Oilers 1 win
Devils 1 win
plus if the Wings would have won just one of the 2 games against the Jets they would be in the playoffs too so thats another 2 wins totaling 14 wins.

Nice blast from the past reference!

Got it from King of the Hill when Dale wanted to put Hank on said suicide / homicide watch. Works either way though.
