Player pre-game audio: Wheeler & Hendricks

Coach Maurice pre-game scrum topics: Same lineup? Tightness of games at this point in the season. Thoughts on top line. Health updates. Thoughts on Alex Ovechkin this season? Does he see similarities between Laine and Ovechkin? Thoughts on Jets D pairs since Trouba went down. On Blake Wheeler’s goal scoring drought.

i think Laine will be motivated tonight. he seems like someone who wants to measure himself against the best.

What's your excuse?
Laine is the kind of player who rises to the occasion. Great performances in the playoffs in Finland, as well as in the early season last year.

I smell a big game from him tonight, he wants to compete with Ovi.

Even if we lose, it's the first 3 losses in a row for the Jets this year. Last year it took til the last games of the season to WIN three in a row. It's been a great year.

The sad thing is, if they lose three in a row, I'll have to lose Frenchy as my avatar.

Injury news.

I'm getting a very negative vibe regarding Lowry

It's getting to the point where I'll be surprised if Lowry plays before the playoffs, or even during the playoffs.

Wasn't he only supposed to be out for a game or two when he re-aggravated his injury?

Maurice stated it was not as significant as the previous one. Seems he's on track to meet or exceed the games missed.

And if it's UBI injury (suspected shoulder) why isn't he skating?

We don't match up at all well with Washington. Have we lost 3 in a row this year yet? Once, maybe?

Caps usually make us their bitch. I would like us to change that tonight but am not feeling it. Without Lowry and Trouba I feel less stout defensively.

We shall see though.

There is a solution for that. Pour, swallow, repeat as needed. :laugh:

Well in the last 2 games that the Jets beat the Caps Mr Tyler Myers shadowed Ovi all over the place and surprisingly shut him down... maybe that works again.

If I recall correctly Maurice said the hit on Lowry that took him out likely would have injured him even if was 100% healthy. Lowry threw crushing hits that game and then got blindsided later in the game... too bad for us.
