At the end of the day, goaltending made the difference there, right? Not just Hellebuyck with his numerous big saves, but with the GWG being a complete muffin from the blue line.

Helly should win us some. He is paid well enough to do it.

Agreed. He's been lowrolling to start the year, as happens. I fully expect things to have evened out once the dust settles, where he will have saved many goals above expected and be near the league leaders in that.
When you’re pitting Comrie versus Hellebuyck, the Jets deserved to win and the results back that up. I see no reason to cut out the goaltending and focus only on the skaters when talking about which team deserved what.

The goalie is a player on your hockey team.
On your hockey team.
On your haw key team.
Yes the goalie is a player on your hockey team; he's a player that you meet, as your walking down the street; he's a player that you meet each day.
.
I was lucky enough to see him work, and unlucky enough to be that old
yes yes yes yes yes.
Just as I think goaltending lost us a few games this year, it's going to win us a bunch too.
The fact that we are where we are and we can only say we goalied the other team once is a really really positive development.

I didn’t love the idea of this when he was hired but I am warming up to it. Scott is a quality individual and I have liked the way the team plays under his guidance up to this point. The main challenge I have had with the idea is I can’t imagine TNSE firing Scott. We ran into this problem with Paul. Those quality individuals are tough to cute loose for Mark and his org.
I take it as a good sign that I am in no rush to see Rick back behind the bench. I hope Rick and his wife are doing ok.

Had a party for my son’s hockey team at activate then Pizza after. Really fun night but missed this game.
Happy to see the 2nd line produce and Cole continue his upward trajectory.
I know I get really frustrated on nights when we get goalied. I have decided to try to generate the equal and opposite level of feels when we do the same onto others. Cleaning up the goalie savior balance sheet from early in this season.
Taking 20 of our team members to the Jets game tonight but I can‘t attend because I coach my sons game at the same time. I expect the Jets to bounce back tonight and I am hoping Bro can get of the Schnide.

Usually I have it pretty slack but this fall/winter I have stepped up all over the place to help out in areas I have zero experience in. Its been pretty nerve wracking but really fun and my schedule has been full for the first time in a while.

Suddenly I'm five years old again singing along in front of the TV.
That was a very exciting game! Buffalo is a young, inexperienced but exciting team. They "give er" as we say around Lockport. The Jets are a little older, a little more experienced but also exciting. I definitely like what I see in the Jets this year.
Some observations (my opinion) on individual players....that might have been the wrong game to insert Stanley into. He looked really, really slow and his reach was unable to make up for it. I think that Iafallo, while a solid player, is playing at least one level above his pay grade and (Fabio) Jonsson-Fjallby is no Kupari.

That was an intense scene listening to HAL pleading for his life in such a calm monotone voice.
That's a short leash.

I missed the game because it was blacked out since it was in NHLNetwork. Good to hear we got the win in a bit of a let down game and glad Helly was good enough to get the DUB.

With great hair comes great responsibility.
Then again, most guys just wash it and leave it to dry any which way.
EDIT:
Miss read at first and thought you said you missed the game because you were blacked out. That would have some pretty solid day drinking before the game

Well, George from 20 years ago would have enough such material to fill several books.
Now, it's just my self-deprecating sense of humour.
