Pre-Game Talk: Jets vs Avalanche - Tue Jan 2 8:00pm CT

[Flair Hay]

Everyone loves everyone after a 5-0 win on new years eve

I could see us dropping one against Colorado. Not a big deal if we do after three wins out of the break. Didn't get to see last night but I'm a happy camper nonetheless

 

[MrWigglez]

yup, they also don't like hellebuyck and little

Helly/Little package deal trade inc!! E5!!!!!!!!!!!!

There have been some disappointing games following lopsided victories this year.

Detroit 5-1 against Jets after Jets beat Ottawa 5-0; Chicago 5-1 against Jets after Jets beat Vancouver 5-1; and last time in Colorado the Jets lost in OT following a Jets victory over Minnesota 7-2.

There were a number of bone-headed penalties in the last game against the Avs (see Myers - delay of game X2) and the team looked flat.

Edmonton was coasting last night. Hopefully Winnipeg doesn't take too much competitive satisfaction from the Oilers game. Start fresh and aggressive against the Avalanche and make up for the the last time they played in Denver. Divisional games are still important opportunities.

So if Buff is back in the lineup......who is back in the PB?

Chiarot? Or
Poolboy?

 

[nobody important]

why isnt dano in this do his teammates not like him

One of the pilots went down with injury, so he got called up to the cockpit.

Yeah, but that was LAST year. We're a much better team THIS year!

 

[King Woodballs]

Buff is probably playing tomorrow by the sounds of it

Is this Perrault's last year as a Jet? He is too expensive for a bottom 6 player. So hopefully they'll win it this year as Perrault deserves to sip out of the cup.

He’s in the first year of a 4 year deal @ $4.125 million AAV. Another good signing by Chevy.

Open this up when you are posting and you will always know the contract status of any player.

Why would you think this? I expect him to finish his contract with the Jets

Is 4 million a lot for a 4th liner? I mean I doubt if he will get much chance in the top 6 with Ehlers, laine, chef, wheeler, connor, Little.

Thing is, he's better than a few of those players, but is just being used to drive a line

Considering that he can play on any one of the top 3 lines, and has stats that border on high end 2nd line player, he's exactly where he should be. He's a perfectly good complimentary player, and there's no way he should be traded right now. He's relatively cheap and effective depth. No way Chevy trades that away.

I wouldn't think of MP as a 4th line player. He can play anywhere up and down your lineup and be effective. IMO his versatility gives us quite a competitive edge.

Lol its very hard to fit 20+ 6feet tall guys in 1 photo inside a mid sizs plane.

"Aavco Cup, post: 139669533, member: 206043"]So if Buff is back in the lineup......who is back in the PB?

Please be Chiapet in the PB

[/QUOTE][/QUOTE]

 

[Johnnucleo]

So whos missing from the photo?
Little, Dano, Matthias, Buff, Poolman, Mason, and Bucky. Am I missing anyone?

Im not suggesting anything Im just curious who is who

"So, Patrik... 8, or 6 + Perreault?"

Who would you put him ahead of? Not chef. Maybe little. I would not put him ahead of Connor, Laine or Ehlers. Wheeler?

 

[Adam da bomb]

Please be Chiapet in the PB

[/QUOTE][/QUOTE]
Of course Chiapet he is a LD and Buff is a Rd. Benching him for a rookie makes the dressing room uncomfortable while Poolman will be less likely to get grumpy.

4m for a .75 PPG player is a f***ing steal dude. One of the best contracts on the team....

Maurice said in one of his recent pressers that not once has Perreault knocked on his door asking for more minutes. You keep a guy like that around.
