Post-Game Talk: Jets 4 Canucks 2

[DannyGallivan]

Scheifele, Morrissey, Dubois and Connor are all among the best in the NHL, and they all had monster games. Samberg is a train wreck. Kuhlman’s hands look like The Sandman’s hands when he’s fighting Spidey… just two big bricks.

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

Lurch was good on the wing with Scheifele. Keep him there for a while.

One of the most unprofessional things by a player on ice embarassing your backup goalie like that after he played a decent game. Miller has some of the worst body language of an NHL player I have ever seen whenever I watch the Canucks.

I guess you forgot Buff yelling at Laine.
As for the backup goalie I thought he was more lucky than good. He make a lot of mistakes there was way too many adventures around his net.

Samberg’s progression has been extremely disappointing.

Samberg’s progression has been extremely disappointing.

After his one big mistake, he played a good game.

Heinola with his best game of the year and showed what he can bring when playing his game. He was playing with confidence, skating and moving the puck with authority. His gap.was also good and he was solid on the wall in the dzone.

Heinola did play well tonight but I think that he can bring much more than what he showed tonight. It`s really encouraging that he appears to be gaining confidence out there but it seems to me that he is still playing ultra conservatively as probably asked by the coachs`. The breakout system and even the approach to generating offence that Bones is asking the team to play right now is not really well aligned with Ville`s strengths but he is trying hard to gain coach`s trust.

Did anyone else find it as funny as I did when Delia wouldn’t leave the net to get the extra attacker and JT Miller was pissed

I could not believe he hit the net with his stick!

Oh I agree that he's capable of much more but this is probably the first time he's given a glimpse of what he can bring.

The more confidence he gets the better he'll be imo.

Wonder how many more games he gets till Schmiditty is back?

I can't recall the last time I cheered for both teams in a game. Fortunately, the right team won and a lot of fun was had at our house.

Best of all, being on the winning side, the loser had to go out and bring the dinner home from Akbar's, which was fabulous. Given our weather here, cold and rainy again, that was especially nice on top of two points. It's supposed to rain every day through to Tuesday here in Ginger Papa country so I'm looking forward to being back on the prairies where I Will Not Complain about the cold.

We're out on the town for New Year's Eve but I will keep a thought for how we're playing in Edmonton and will keep my fingers crossed. Given that it's a boozy night, my eyes will be crossed regardless.

 

[Tom ServoMST3K]

I'll go get the ice chipper...

Omg I actually know what show this is from

Pretty good contest show, called Whodunnit, lol

Nice bounceback game for the Jets. Dominated most of the play and earned the win. Definitely felt like a must-win given the relatively easy opponent and the losing streak.

I won't be confident Morrissey will play the next game until he actually steps on to the ice on Saturday. We have seen what appear to be minor injuries morph into weeks or even months of games missed. Hopefully that isn't the case here.

 

[Aggie204]

Was at the Phone Booth tonight, the first period had me worried. Thankfully I was wrong. Watching live gave me hope for Ville, Samberg not so much. #19 had a nice bounce back game. Team stifled Horvat, was coming off b2b 4 point games and wasn’t noticeable tonight.

Now I’ll go talk shit to my family on the West Coast.

 

[Jets 31]

Well that was a good game by our Jets, let's dance.

After Samberg's opening bed shitting pass

I assumed we were doomed, but the rest of the game mainly went our way and we got the desperately needed win. We'll see if this configuration can pull off a win vs either of the Alberta teams.

 

[Jet]

After his one big mistake, he played a good game.

I disagree. He got less bad as the game went on but still had some bad plays and near catastrophes.

If pull him out for Capo next game

 

[Tom ServoMST3K]

My word we needed that one, lol.

I wouldn't bench Samberg, God knows you are going to need good PKers against the Oilers, and Samberg is a guy who can match the speed, and get in lanes quickly. With any prospect there will be some stinkers in their repetoire, games where the decision making is wrong, or just the timing is off. Sometimes it's just not your night. And you don't need to bench a young player every time they make a mistake, you need to correct the mistakes.

Why can't we play the canucks all the time?

 

[AlaskaJet]

Why can't be play the canucks all the time?

NHL working on it!

 

[SensibleGuy]

Morrisey dayy to day? Welp...see you next season JoMo!

 

[Eyeseeing]

Hope Samberg can settle down a bit as he’s seems to be regressing.
He played well after the first gaffe but he’s been making at least one bone head play per game lately.

 

[Jets 31]

Wow, enough injuries already, i think we are good for the rest of the season .
