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

[PaulPooley]

Kyle Connor- KFC- you are a beautiful shooter, in spite of any shortcomings

The Jets had their minds else where today … trying to find a good realtor.

Watching the Wild and Oilers now … Stanley should have gone on waivers or LITR.

You didn't watch the game did you?

Fefe = utter garbage (reminded me of Wheeler from last year!)
Hellboi = rattled survivor
Bones = confused as shit

Ouch

The worst lead in hockey is a one goal lead. No lead gets blown as often as a one goal lead. For instance, as there are no field goals in hockey, it is impossible to blow a two goal lead without also blowing a one goal lead, but not every blown one goal lead came from an also-blown two goal lead

Impeccable logic is impeccable.

No love for Hellebuyck with a .943 performance?

To quote one of my colleagues when he tried his first Danish beer: I love, I love!

 

[JetsFan815]

We can't be too

The top line is doing a real good job of getting caved night in night out. Stanley had a mediocre night and a very forgettable giveaway. Ehlers and the Lowry line were the only good ones tonight. Thought Barron and Names did well with Perfetti. Hope Hellebuyck doesn't wake up with neck stiffness and a concussion.

We can't be too hard on the top line guys.

Yes the Blackhawks coach matched them up against the 2nd line of the worst team in the league and they still somehow found a way to lose that matchup pinned inside their zone all night.

But Bones didn't have the last change, maybe next game at home Bones can match up our top line against the Hawks 4th line and maybe that's a matchup they can hopefully break even in rather than outright lose?

Anyways, Lowry line had an off night but it was a rare abberation for them. I am not worried about them, I am more worried about guys whom this happens to every night.

Ehlers is stud and we don't deserve him. That line looked pretty good with Iafallo.

Stanley was what I expect, can't harp on him too much, he is basically as advertised.

 

[MardyBum]

I didn't think the Lowry line was very good honestly. Got hemmed in a lot and didn't create much.

Fwiw

 

[Buffdog]

They need to figure this out. You can't have three passengers on one line.

Considering the Jets are 3-1 on that stretch, apparently you CAN

 

[johnnyonthspot]

How was tree's block a trip?

A mystery greater than the caramilk secret and crop circles or just typical crappy NHL refs

 

[blues10]

Always nice to win on a Friday night!

 

[kanadalainen]

Monahan had a quietly lovely game.

 

[NA Hockey]

Not our best game

Some highlights for me:
Ehlers = good
Monahan = good
KC = sneaky good
Iafallo = unsung hero
Namesnikov = unsung hero
Lowry = unsung hero

Lowry and his line were horrific and Ehlera did everything by himself. 9 was invisible as were 13, 22. 55 and 81 got caved in but KFC scores in OT so it’s all ok.

 

[Atoyot]

Pionk has been genuinely awful lately. I've mentioned it before but he seems like the type of player that when all is said and done he comes out and says that he didn't really care for the game ala Wellwood or Byfuglien. All the skill in the world and when he's engaged he's fantastic, but when he's not it's an issue. The positive part of that is that the playoffs will likely be something that gets him going, but right now when games aren't as important he's a liability.

That's my take and it's speculation, but he's put in so much more effort when it matters and falls apart in the mushy middle when the season drags on multiple occasions now.

You gonna be alright?

55 made some bizarre plays... trying to be Gretzky or whatever, but not a terrible game from him overall. Imho.

 

[DeepFrickinValue]

Did Bettman buy everyone a beer at the game?

 

[SUX2BU]

Hey Joe, we beat a team south east of this state

 

[Atoyot]

Monohan had a quiety lovely game.

Best game as a Jet for him by a long shot.

 

[LowLefty]

Decent game overall, closer than what I would have liked but we controlled most of it.
Ehlers with a beauty rush and a seeing eye goal - nice to see him get it going.
Iafallo had a nice game and Names is driving that 4th line - looks like we have a solid bottom 6 as we near the deadline.
Top 6 still needs to work out a few kinks and I think they will - just leave the lines alone long enough for these guys to get something going.

 

[AlaskaJet]

So did this game decide who’s better ehlers or Connor. Who are we trading?

Guys, “nagging injury” notwithstanding, I am all alone here?
Little Nikky must have been pissed off after reading all the posts after last game.
He’s not a Dutch Uncle, he’s a transplanted Viking.
I just knew he was going to play through whatever was nagging him and giver Merde.
Sorry Jeg veht ikke den Dansk ord for merde.

 

[GeorgeJETson]

In other news, watching Sports Centre highlights. Canucks get scored on by Nic Petan. Oof!

 

[Atoyot]

Fwiw

Yeah, that doesn't surprise me.

Yes

Just the refs.

 

[bustamente]

3/5 Stickmen tonight, at times the Jets controlled this game but just couldn't get that knock out punch, Helle once again a beast hopefully he feels good after the game that was a pretty vicious head shot, Nik was jumping tonight Money another good game, top line tough night but KFC scores goals even back checked tonight. D had a tough time, Vladdy does the little things. Jets just need to keep on collecting points.
