Ranked by PPG of players actually playing center. Last column is total points by centers. Puts Winnipeg at 24th overall in the league.

Still not good enough. Need to be top 10 to make some considerable noise in post season

 

[Adam da bomb]

Or we do it defensively and become one of the best d team. Haha

 

[Board Bard]

I like this stat better which might explain the scoring.
Power plays opportunities
#1 Nashville ...... 74
#4 Tampa ......... 70
#31 Winnipeg ... 51

Winnipeg would probably have more PP opportunities if they didn't spend so much time standing around watching the other team play.

 

[GaryPoppins]

Or we do it defensively and become one of the best d team. Haha

Or acheive both and be unstoppable

 

[Duke749]

If people consider this a big issue, what do people think of our LHD issue?

 

[ocdaddy]

But Little's having a bounce back year. It was posted repeatedly over the summer...

 

[stimpsoncat]

Yep, start skating and using our quickness and the power pp opportunities will come.

 

[ocdaddy]

If people consider this a big issue, what do people think of our LHD issue?

Do you think our second line center (Little) will exceed 15 goals this year?

 

[Saidin]

Like I've said else where (I'm going off of memory on the exact numbers) I want to see Little without a PDO of 95.5 and an OISH% of 6.5.

 

[Duke749]

Do you think our second line center (Little) will exceed 15 goals this year?

Uhhh, yeh.

 

[Atoyot]

Never said it was.

wow that is surprising.....30th in the league.....concerning...

Again, OP is very, very misleading. It includes centers not playing center. Giroux, Johnson, Pavelski, Gourde among a few

 

[Illi]

I think it is not just a center problem. The Jets are 27th in GF/60 at 5on5 (1,98). Just below Detroit (2), and above only Vegas, Arizona, Anaheim and LA. Sheifele is the best Jet with 1,67 points/60 at 5on5 and he is 172nd in the league among players that have played at least 60 minutes.

 

[Conspiracy Theorist]

Jets have the best wingers so it evens out. And better defensemen than Toronto and Pittsburgh.

 

[ConnorMcMullet]

If people consider this a big issue, what do people think of our LHD issue?

Nurse (+?) for Connor or Ehlers?

 

[Jets 31]

Chevy picked up Stastny at last years trade deadline and no one predicted he would , i remember all the TSN guys not remotely talking about it until the trade was announced . I have faith that whatever we need Chevy will get it , quietly .

 

[Duke749]

Nurse (+?) for Connor or Ehlers?

That’s disgusting

 

[YWGinYYZ]

Jets have the best wingers so it evens out. And better defensemen than Toronto and Pittsburgh.

Very true. Looking at the top ten teams in the list in the OP (plus adding a random few other teams), this seems to be born out in the numbers:

Team	Pts
WPG	70
SJ	70
WSH	69
COL	66
BUF	65
VCR	65
BOS	62
PIT	59
FLA	56
TB	54
CGY	54
PHI	50
TOR	40
EDM	39
ANA	37
DAL	35
ARI	29

[TBODY] [/TBODY]

Perhaps those teams should address the scoring of their wingers.

 

[Jetfaninflorida]

Do you think our second line center (Little) will exceed 15 goals this year?

Do you think our star goal scorer 29 will score 15 goals if it werent for the powerplay this year?

 

[Tommigun]

Do you think our star goal scorer 29 will score 15 goals if it werent for the powerplay this year?

Probably because he’s had some of the team’s highest equal strength numbers in the last two years. Don’t see any reason why this year would be different.

 

[ocdaddy]

Do you think our star goal scorer 29 will score 15 goals if it werent for the powerplay this year?

Not if he's left on Little or Lowrie's line. So...no.

Do you?

 

[Jetfaninflorida]

Not if he's left on Little or Lowrie's line. So...no.

Do you?

Not the way is playing now. There is a reason he is down the lineup and it's on him and his play.

Not good

[Whileee]

Nashville and Wild in the bottom 10...

 

[Hunter368]

But wingers are pretty good.

Yes they are....
