Post-Game Talk: Jets 3 - Bolts 2 in OT

[bustamente]

Last year the team was 11-6-1 at Turkey Day this year 11-5-2 but this team has a different feel to it so hopefully no new year swoon.

WHERE NEVER LOSING AGAIN

Just went went back and watched the replays of the goals. Right now they are giving Connor credit for an assist on Scheifele's goal, but it was actually Perfetti. Not that it matters in terms of the win, just thought I would make mention.

Agreed. I like the chances of this team maintaining their play. They are much deeper and more balanced than last season.

Yes, and I think @surixon noted this as well.

I must of missed that in the bouncing around in the post game thread. I bounce from here to NHL.com for standings and highlights, to Natural Stats Trick for underlying numbers, to the occasional podcast, for biased opinion. I like to soak myself in a win

That was a fun third period and OT. Lovely way to end hump day.

Yep, and you are not the only one.

 

[Atoyot]

Fun stuff.

Big 2 points, we hung around like a bad stink. Good on the boys for not giving up the 3rd goal. Bucky kept us in there, he’d sure look good with an oil drop on his chest, no? We’re a bit of a bogey team for Tampa Bay, I never rule us out against the Bolts. Gives us some leeway to drop a game on this road trip. If we can take 5-6 points out of 8 that would be exceptional. We’re out tanning hides in the Sunshine State.

Go on, gyet.

 

[kanadalainen]

Helly put up a .935 tonight.

 

[Gil Fisher]

Helly put up a .935 tonight.

Must be over .900 now.

 

[Flyby]

no, he would look awful...

No one looks good in that horrid orange.

 

[Atoyot]

Helly put up a .935 tonight.

He's pretty good.

 

[Atoyot]

Namestnikov is not flashy but he's really smart... really beginning to like his play.

He's similar to Stastny. He processes the game well. At 2 million dollars a year he's a steal.

Agree... he's *very* much like Stastny.

 

[Jet]

Agree... he's *very* much like Stastny.

He just seems to be missing that last finishing bit but he's been excellent

 

[KingBogo]

Must be over .900 now.

On its way to .920+

 

[Howard Chuck]

I’ll break out the 14 year Tomatin next.

That’s a good one!

 

[surixon]

Yes, and I think @surixon noted this as well.

Haha, yeah I said something like "that Connor is so hot right now he's stealing points that aren't even his :p". I'm sure the NHL will review and correct it at some point. Gotta think there is a vested interest to get the points correct with Sports betting.

I've only had a chance to watch the first two periods so far but a big win.

Vezinabuyck is back.

Thought JoMo had a big game. All of Ehlers, KC, Perfetti and Scheifele looked great.

Good win against a real good team.

 

[Aggie204]

That’s a good one!

Highland scotches are my favourite.

 

[Buffdog]

Hopefully when Vilardi is back there will be more balance to the forwards TOI. Pretty obvious that Arniel doesn't have the same confidence in AJF that he has in Kupari. Still not sure who gets bumped from the top 6 (or top 9for that matter). Everyone seems to be clicking

 

[Atoyot]

Yes, and I think @surixon noted this as well.

They'll get it right in the end, all goals are reviewed. But it shouldn't take away from Connor's game. He was a force tonight.

 

[bustamente]

My app says Scheifele from Joshua and Koal. Vaddy has 8 assists so far this year

 

[GeorgeJETson]

Just finished watching the game from my PVR as I had a class earlier.

Wow, what a game! Bolts are a pretty good team and I thought we kept pace well.

So close to my prediction of 3-1 with DeMelo scoring first (he did get the primary assist after all).

Methinks my dice method has some merit

 

[Atoyot]

That's fine considering we're paying him less. He's a net positive when he's on the ice and that's a nice situation to be in. A lot of teams pay more for a player to be a net negative.
