Post-Game Talk: Stars shut out the Jets 2-0
- Thread starter bustamente
- Start date
- Status
The only game or games I see being sold out will be the Leafs and possibly Habs games. That's when the real Jets fans don't want to be there cause they can't stand the Leafs/Habs fans and fake Jets fans.

Pretty darn good
We need D shooters to play up while they take turns playing back. All of them.
Morrissey showed but Dillon needs to get up and net-front. Forget Smitty, bless his pointed head and powerful blasts but Pionk can do it, if he doesn’t give too many turnovers.
The other D need t be allowed to gain confidence in the rush as well..
Forwards have been better backchecking lately, not quite as bought in tonight on a few embarrassing occasions, but better.
Dallas is a good team and don't give up much so i'm not that upset with how we played 5 on 5 but those 5 on 3 PP's .......

Never get too high or low
It’s a long season

True. I'm just a bit annoyed that some don't see that Pionks play has improved substantially over the past month or so. I think his peak is Morrissey light, albeit with not as much defensive awareness. He can rush the puck, make very good exit passes, and even work the blueline and attack the net.
However, this is a risk reward scenario. I'd much rather have Pionk be more aggressive and make mistakes with a forward backing him up, than the Pionk that's risk adverse, in a shell, and not driving offense.
If Pionk plays this way in my mind he earns his salary and is a legitimate 2nd pair guy and 2pp point guy.

I think the team played pretty well, but they just couldn’t figure out a way to get any space. They also need to adapt to this type of smothering defence and charge the net and put pucks there.
As for the 5 on 3 power players, it’s not much different than the five on four. Connor needs to take the puck and drive to the net instead of trying the one timer, or just move back toward the blue line with the puck. Ehlers is one of those guys who will take the puck and make the defenders commit to something. We need more of that on the five on threes.

Morrissey had a point blank in the 1st and Scheif had a grade A, 2 five on three and we should win that game if their goalie doesn't play like that. Give their D credit too. But the good news was we were in that game and had opportunities to win it.
The hight stick in Nemestokov, slew on Apple and cross check on Pionk at the end seemed like big missed calls to me.

I was kind of hoping My reverse jinx would work...
My statement last night "Jets have lost this in a shut out...
I'm going to bed..."
Didn't work I see... shit...
Man the Jets were flat... flatter than the great salt flats...
Oh well... I am sure they'll be raring to go for the next game...

I think you nailed it. The Jets put in enough of a 5v5 effort to put up a good fight against most teams, but Dallas' smothering defense was a lot to handle.
The only part of the game that was really inexcusable was the PP. There is some urgency there, 21st and falling...
Schitt spent a lot of time racing to a puck in the corner....
Just to make a panic clear... over and over again...
Chisholm yes... Big Twig no... Copa' ahead of the can't teach size...
could only watch the 1st and on-and-off until the Pavelski goal (traditional Pavelski net front). Didn't love our offense this game, not sure if that was bad-Jets or good-Stars defensively. but i felt the play was generally being led by the Stars. The Stars are a great team though so no shame in losing to them. 0/4 on the PP doesn't help.

He’s useless and opposing teams pick on him because he struggles to defend, his passes mostly go to open ice…..unbelievable that this guy suckered anyone into paying him $5M per

I don't really think the Jets played as poorly as people seem to be saying. The Stars are an excellent hockey team and were probably pretty pissed that they completely fell apart against Calgary in their last game. They came out with a top notch effort, especially defensively. I think they were the better team for most of the game.
The Jets need to learn something from this, particularly about those big missed power play opportunities.

Losing back to back games in regulation to central division opponents is not good.
Right that ship tomorrow against the Coilers

And yet, after those losses, we're still in 3rd place in our division and 6th in our conference.
