Post-Game Talk: Laffs 1 Jets 0 in OT

[Jets 31]

I thought hockey players wore a plastic cup protector sort of thing.

Those are very, very tender. A strong gust of wind can hurt.

I'm very familiar with how tender they are. That's why it surprises me that players invest so much in protecting their head and elbows and hips and knees, but leave their goodies largely at risk.

The past few games have given a glimpse into what life would have been like had many posters around here gottwn their way and we traded Schief and started a rebuild... now imagine had we gotten rid of Helle too

Ya i wanted no part of trading either unless they didn't want to be here anymore.

 

[Jet]

they only do so much

Also, if your berries shift at the right moment it becomes a nutcracker. Don't ask me how I know

According to their numbers, Bro > Helle.

Cups can only protect so much from a shot from the puck. They can reduce most of the damage, but no piece of equipment is 100%. Players get concussions all the time wearing the best helmets available.

 

[Buffdog]

The first time I saw the replay, I thought maybe the puck hit Jomo off-centre on on thr hip bone (ASIS)... The way he jumped around after being hit is unusual for a nut-shot... usually that's an immediate drop, double over, and writhe in agony

For some of us the cups just aren't big enough either....

Someone go testes it out now. Grab a jock strap. Put it on. Get a baseball bat. Take about a 40 50km an hour swing to the cup. Let me know what happens.

Saw a couple of Leaf fans testing out your theory.

When Sip's away the Jets just don't play!

Testes it out now.... I see what you did there.

I'm not sure I understand the explanation but I won't ask. A more important question is has there been any word on how long Morrissey will be out of action? And by that I mean action in a hockey game, of course.

 

[GNP]

Leafs are brutal. You see why they get bounced out in the first round. I was quite shocked with how poorly they played.

Also see how important Scheif is to this team, as with any 1c. Could get away with Connor out, can't get away with no scheif. Bet this is an eye opener for Chevy to add a 2c as well.

Very good post and I totally agree,that the center ice position is vitally important. We did great with Connor out of the lineup, and would have done fine as well if it was Ehlers out. You have to keep control of center ice, and with Scheifle out this is starting to show. I think Chevy needs to make a deal for a great young 2nd line center by giving up futures to a team that's rebuilding. I really like Casey Mittelstat from Buffalo, as he's about 23 yrs old, and only making about $ 2,.5 mil per year, and he's really starting to produce. He's a restricted ( RFA) I believe, and we'd have a good chance to resign him. You gotta give to get, if you want somebody good. This means that Lambert and Chibrikov, and maybe McGroarty would have to be available, plus some 1st round picks. Just remember, this would put us in win now mode, and we'd have a team set with young guys, for the next 6 years or so. I'd make this kind of deal if I was Chevy, rather than trading for some old guy, that has a "limited" future, and may not fit in with the chemistry of the team.

May I suggest using your hockey helmet for the usual cup protection area and just swap out your cup to the other head on top of your shoulders to protect the brain area. Nature usually only blesses guys with one large cup area of the two. It may look a bit funny but if the shoe fits!

 

[AlphaLackey]

They should have awarded a 2 man penalty shot.

In the AHL they now kick the goalie out of the game as well as give a penalty shot; the NHL just calls it an automatic goal if it happens on a breakaway. Crybabies

A two-man penalty shot would be a hell of a thing to see. Throw out two pucks as well, goalie's gotta stop 'em both

 

[10Ducky10]

If Scheifele, JMo and Volare aren't playing on Saturday I'd move Kup and Sammy up a bit...

Perfetti Names Ehlers
KC Kup Nino
Iafallo Lowry Apples
Barron Toni Axel

Dillon DD
Samberg Pionk
Heinola Schmidt

Helle LB

Why not lol

Get the blender out. Can't get any worse

Yeah, but if it's lotsa potato and not much dog...

 

[Howard Chuck]

Also, because I talked about one of my favorite rules that needs a patch, and since the game featured a 2 man breakaway on Ilya, allow me to shed a tear of warm memories for David Leggio, who will play goal on my "All-Time Mad Genius" team.



He knows exactly what he did, as you can see when he points directly to center ice, and he's the only one that knew what was going on, as both the refs and the commentators were very confused. And yes, both the AHL and the NHL immediately patched their rules after this happened. As did the DHL when he did the same in Germany

He didn’t even try to hide the fact he was shoving the net off.! Lol

 

[AlphaLackey]

He didn’t even try to hide the fact he was shoving the net off.! Lol

And he immediately told the ref what the consequences were, when both the refs and the commentators were in full WTF? mode. You know he was simply playing the percentages.

Definitely goes into the AlphaLackey Hall of Heroes.

 

[Howard Chuck]

Give ville his shot now.

Lambert and Chib also.

Now is the time. 2 O guys and 1 D out.

Elc options.

I’d love to see it. Who knows, maybe they run with the chance?

And that’s why those people don’t have jobs in hockey operations … thank God.

lol I wouldn’t you guys repairing my house or cars. You don’t ripped out the engine when your brakes don’t works or tear down the walls when you door doesn’t close.
There is no reason to change all the lines sure switch a couple of guys around but not all of them.
The Jets had lots of chances to score sometimes they go in and other times they don’t.
