It's pretty obvious that this team doesn't have the personnel to play the game in the dirty areas. Pretty perimeter play in February/March is never going to work.

We have some players. I like most of the players but we do not have the right mix of players IMO. Very little size or at least usable size.

Only 91 has the maniacal tenacity to make a difference if one isn't very talented. Highmore, Kampf, Strome and a few others need a sack implant to play like 91.

all the teams competing for wildcard spots have also been inconsistent, but I just don't think they have it in them this year.

Effort was there, Jets just a better team.

Kane and Toews had a good night.

Crawford has now lost 4 straight starts with 10 wins 16 losses for the season. Lehner is 16 wins with 9 losses. Who should have started last night??????
Go to 4:10 into the highlights video. Would Lehner have stopped this shot?

Bottom line: Lehner should have started. Good night.

35 saves on 38 shots with 3 goals allowed on impossible to stop deflections. That save % is better than Lehner's going back to the start of the new year.

But yeah should have started the guy who played the night before on a ridiculous turn around who hasn't even been the better goalie.

It was a back to back game where they played late the night before. Lehner really hasn't been great lately anyway.

Keep that head in the sand.

Yeah, Lehner probably stops that. Why did Crow go down so early?

The goalie situation has been terribly managed. This is why Crow should have been traded/bought out after they signed Lehner. The team is likely comfortably in a playoff spot if Lehner had a stater’s workload.

Two things can be true at the same time

lehner may or may not have stopped that goal

that said I do believe JC has managed the goalie situation badly.

and the forward situation.

and the D situation until Seabs injuries did his job for him.

He would have, crow just gave up on the play and started crying and let the puck go in and then realized that his crying doesn’t help since that player was pushed in by his own player, what an embarrassment.
