Post-Game Talk: Jets 5 - Dead Wings 2

Stayed awake for the entire game, but could have easily nodded off in that first period...

Jets played better in the second, but game management by the refs in the third helped the Red Wings. Brossoit played a pretty good game tonight so I'll give it four Chevy Novas out of five...

The Prediction Contest for the game against the Bawstan Brewins has been posted, so go ahead and start getting those guesses in. And while you are at it, don't forget to help ol' sleepy @macmaroon out by signing up for a GDT, there are lots of games still available, so...

See you on Friday, good night...

I don't think anyone had any idea how good Vilardi is. I expected him to be a downgrade on PLD in the near future with some potential of being as good or better in a few years but he has been absolutely unreal. The best player around the net ts 2.0 history and it's not even close. That element has been so lacking for this team in the post-Ladd era.

Gabe was a high end prospect talent wise right from the draft, it’s just that injuries crushed his progress. His path reminds me of a more talented Chaz Lucius, Gabe missed half of his draft +1 season and all of his draft +2 season and some worried he might be done. Then like many others he kind of got caught up in the Covid interruptions. Gabe did finally gain traction two seasons ago and he finally broke out Last season in LA in a lesser role than he has been afforded in Winnipeg. Make no mistake, there was a reason Kings fans were pissed off with the PLD trade before this season even started, because this is what he was flashing at times last season.

Eat more NUTS man!

I wonder if Bones was referring to Murant's haircut?

 

[buggs]

At the game tonight. Maybe it was the cheap beers at the Garrick (it's still open!) but never felt worried at this game. Fabulously entertaining, decent enough crowd, enjoyable game. Was waiting for the Gordie Howe hatty from Fjallby, but he let me down. Alas.

Back on Friday against the B's. Figure I'll be back at the Garrick and by games end won't be quite so coherent. Go figure.

Don't worry about being coherent by game's end, neither will the Bruins' commentator Jack Edwards. You may even see him at the Garrick pre-game

 

[surixon]

KFC with Perfetti to give the second line an elite goal scorer, maybe a (non Kevin Hayes-esque) 2C at the deadline?

Sounds good to me. Vilardi won't continue to score at 4.5 p/60 at 5 on 5 but he's clearly a different type of top line talent then we are accustomed to here.

Agreed. But it will impact other contracts down the line. And he is one of the players we need to keep as he adds an element we need in our top 6.

One of the reasons I think Ehlers is gone in a year, Can't keep all our first line talent in a cap league. That or we need to hope our d prospects hit and we can go cheap there.

 

[Jet]

Barron, Lambert, Salomonnsen and Milic… for Copp and a 6th round pick?! Yup, I do that trade all day long!

A Copp that was going to leave anyways to boot!

Karen wants to know why he's not wearing any pants?

Pooh thinks pants are over rated.

I'm more of an Eeyore kind of guy, but Pooh isn't wrong.

 

[Howard Chuck]

Coleacanth of the game

(The entire 4th line was great, and Ehlers had a super strong 2nd and 3rd but...)

#36 Morgan Barron

He continues to show flashes of something special, and had a solid game. He is almost the archetype of what is coelacanthine.

No pressure on you kid, but this board is onto you.

I missed this game sadly, but Barron has a crazy work ethic and some skill to go along with it.

12,571 patrons at the game tonight, not bad. With a Friday night game the way they are playing and the Bruins coming in I think they have a chance to crack 14k.

My kids bought some last minute tix for this one, and had a blast.

 

[Flyby]

Watching the LA/Kraken game on TNT and the American panel throwing some love to the Jets in the intermission. Calling them the best cycle team in the league and calling them a dark horse to win the cup. Refreshing!

 

[ThinIce61]

Kraken up 1-0 on the Kings thanks to former Jet Brandon Tanev. PLD killing it with his 3 shots in the game.

 

[SLAYER]

After starting off with a slow burn in the 1st we got a little more amorous as the evening wore on; a little give and take in there, and then drove it home for the win.

I don't think NYR believed they would make the ECF when they made the trade. Or that Lambert would fall to 29. Regardless, it will likely go down as the greatest trade in Jets history.

After the PLD trade that is.

Funny story related to pants. A few years ago no I was sick as a dog. Cold & fever at the same time, headache, etc. I overmedicated myself between tylenol, a good 3 or 4 large shots of whiskey, neo citran, cough syrup and something else I am forgetting. So I was in bed hallucinating and because my body couldn't tel if I was hot or cold from minute to minute I was nekkid under a half a dozen blankets or so.

Anyways I got up to go tell my girlfriend what I was hallucinating, went downstairs and walked into the living room where she and her best friend were looking at some travel photos and not talking so i didn't know anyone else was in the house.

So I walk into the living room in the buff and the two of them crack up and the girlfriend says "Honey we normally wear pants here to entertain guests. And Marilyn my wife's friend says "You remembered my birthday, how sweet.

The story comes up at every get together now.

 

[Boreal]

The VSE line? ...The Vaseline line? Because they get in de... this is Christmas coming up. I can't do this. The line played well. Very happy. More Vaseline, please.

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

Imagine if Vilardi didn't miss all those games

Nope. That's Vilardi.
Lets just hope he can stay healthy the rest of the way.

Christ, after that medicinal regimen, your girlfriend should just be happy you lived to tell the tale!

The only Players we can send to the Moose without going through waivers would be Perfetti(not going to happen) and Heinola(who might go down for a conditioning stint).

Not sure what the Jets will do.

They did call Toninato back up so he'll go back down if Kupari comes back after the Xmas break. When Heinola is ready then you just drop Stanley off at the perimiter and tell him to f*** off.

Why would you want Stanley to Face off?
