I hope Chef is on half wall and KC in slot and Wheels behind the net.

And Jets have won 4 of 5.

Yep. I was just surprised at how they've come back, they were looking pretty bad for a good while there

 

[GeorgeJETson]

These late starts are a real bummer. But I'll probably be up late watching it anyways

As for Friday's afternoon game, I'm confident that we'll have a feed put on in the lunchroom again at work. Happens every year around this time of year.

Good thing the head of IT here is a Jets fan

 

[SLAYER]

I've been waiting for this.... Laine on PP1 heating up again.

 

[Duke749]

Interesting that we’re back to where we started with regards to the PPs. We’ll see how that goes on the upcoming road trip. Be nice to have a game with a few PPs for once this year.

 

[jefferoni]

Boo-Boo is out...

Litts is not even close...

 

[jefferoni]

You say Potato...

 

[Huffer]

Boo-Boo is out...

Litts is not even close...

Honestly, I actually feel great to hear that he's even on light bike rides. If the Jets can stay in the mix, he'd be a heck of an add in January.

 

[jefferoni]

 

[antiqueslivers]

yeah man even if little returns at all, just good to hear he is on the mend to being healthy!

Practice Audio:

Players: Anthony Bitetto, Josh Morrissey and Laurent Brossoit.

Coach Maurice scrum topics: Update on Nathan Beaulieu? Which guy is going in? Any update on Bryan Little? On the attitude that Anthony Bitetto brings to the team. On Bitetto being "good in the room" and what that means. On why the team is a good road team/good at one goal games. Facing a Sharks team that shell shocked them in terms of shots the last game. The play of the Scheifele line. What has he liked about Blake Wheeler up the middle. On the Mike Babcock situation and his experience with past players. His evolution as a coach.

To listen click here.

 

[Adam da bomb]

I think they should put Roslo on the first line to set up Laine and Schief and Connor on the second line to be set up by Ehlers and Wheeler.

 

[jefferoni]

No tweet so here's PMo's presser from the Jets website...

 

[Adam da bomb]

I've been waiting for this.... Laine on PP1 heating up again.

And Ehlers back to 2nd unit. Pomo give yourself a head shake.

 

[Duke749]

And Ehlers back to 2nd unit. Pomo give yourself a head shake.

Yeh I’m a bit surprised they are never together anymore. I know in the past they haven’t been great together but I believe they’ve both turned a corner as players and think they could really click together much better now.

 

[Adam da bomb]

Yeh I’m a bit surprised they are never together anymore. I know in the past they haven’t been great together but I believe they’ve both turned a corner as players and think they could really click together much better now.

One has been our best player and the other is our “franchise “ player so should be given every edge to succeed. We aren’t gonna get another too 2 pick for a long time.

 

[NorCalhockey]

Sharks have won 9 of 10 and are in a playoff spot after their disaster start. 5 of those wins after regulation.

Because I'm a fan of both teams (please don't @ me), I just want a 3-pointer. That way, at least my "other" team gets at least one point.

 

[Jets 31]

You say Potato...

I can see how Bitetto would be well liked in the room . Just play a simple game Bitetto and we should be alright .

 

[Jets 31]

Honestly, I actually feel great to hear that he's even on light bike rides. If the Jets can stay in the mix, he'd be a heck of an add in January.

Exactly , great to hear he's slowly working out to be able to come back .

 

[Tommigun]

Yep. I was just surprised at how they've come back, they were looking pretty bad for a good while there

Yes! They have looked seriously good, better than they did after Christmas break last year imho. Just goes to show that a great D core is not mandatory, and what a genius Maurice is.

 

[JetsUK]

Boo-Boo is out...

Litts is not even close...

Great news that Little is back to light workouts already. Still don't expect him back for a good long while based on previous history and severity of injury, but glad to see him up and about.

 

[PhilJets]

Yes! They have looked seriously good, better than they did after Christmas break last year imho. Just goes to show that a great D core is not mandatory, and what a genius Maurice is.

If Maurice is a genius Jets would have won back to back cup already with the line up 2 years in a row. For sure, hope coach can keep finding the right button now. Sometimes when your backs against the wall thats when your stubbornness dissappear. He is making changes that should have happened before. Not always should be when force into situation


But yeah Jets are doing fine. Hope it continues.
What i don't understand people assume (not you) Jets are a bad team. They still have the core group less Trouba. With injured Buff and Little.

I understand they are not a top 3 team anymore but they sure are not a non-playoff squad with star power they have. They can carry teams most night but yes not as much as a top team with depth. Production wise we don even seen Schiefele and Laine hot streak yet. Hope they both get into 1.

Go Jets Go (winning is fun)

 

[10Ducky10]

PP1 should be Scheif Laine KC Ehlers Pionk.


Wheelers Roslo JMo MP Lowry on PP2.

I would give Sbisa a shot on PP2 , 100mph slapper .
