This has the Jets finishing with the 8th pick, and really close to 7th.

Looks like 9th to me. DET, OTT, BUF, MTL, NJ, LA, SJ and ANA are below us.

NJ is pretty dedicated to owning the draft.

We're picking 10th right now in terms of Points%. Who's going to pass us? Montreal maybe. Minnesota...possibly?

I meant in the McCurdy projected finish.

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

Time to give the young guys more of a chance. Harkins as second line centre. It may fail but that’s what we want.

I can't remember, did Roslovic ever get a decent trial with good wingers?

I still can't cheer for a loss but I can prefer going with a lineup intended to see what we have in some of the young guys. I'd rather lose with them than with Shaw, Shore, Bitetto and Beaulieu.

Not exactly a young guy but lets give Chibisov a shot too. He is a pending UFA. Lets find out if he can play in the NHL before he is gone.

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

I. agree

Send sbisa bitteto bourque etc... those guys down

And play
The young players

Even Stanley

Isn't Stanley injured again? Not sure. If he is healthy, yes even Stanley.

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

yeah, Rangers with 3 games in hand, Wild with 2.

Jets next 3 games- Blues, Sens, Blackhawks

Rangers next 3 - Leafs, Sabres, Kings

Wild next 3 - Canucks, Stars, Avalanche

7 is within reach.

Edit: Going by last 10, everyone except Detroit and LAK is gaining on us.

That is a very large gun - but it is not really an anti-tank gun. And it sure isn't a tank.

No but Roslo can’t handle being a top 6 winger hoping Harkins and Apple are better in D zone.

Maybe, odds take a significant jump at that #9 spot. We need to get out of the 10 spot. Mon, MN, Buff and even SJ could realistically pass us

Oh don't worry we will win 8 of our last 10 games to draft outside the top 10....It's how we roll

 

[PhilJets]

Close this please

(Until our next lost)

Looks that way. Blame Helly

Agreed. This team likes to win when it no longer matters.

Agreed this team likes to string together wins when it no longer matters.

Just when teams below us are gathering points and aiming to drop us lower, our Jets come up with a great performance to grab a win themselves.

stuck in a state of purgatory. Above the below but below the upper teams.

Lots of bad teams won today like NJ. At least we are seeing that Harkins and Apple get their chances and make the most of them.

Lol. I didn't expand the image and I missed Detroit way down at the bottom.

Thinking about everyone in here, I went and ran the sim

The funniest part of this scenario? Seeing the worst team in the league by far being pushed back to #4. Damn, that's adding jury duty to insult to injury.

 

[untouchable21]

The teams I least want to win the lottery are Detroit, Los Angeles, Anaheim, Chicago and Rangers.

Looks like the NHL has brought in the big anti-tank gun: the schedule maker. Over two weeks of crap opponents between now and the TDL to help the team get out of the doldrums. I expect they will be back in a playoff spot at that time and our intrepid GM will again follow the playbook and be a buyer. Get everyone's hopes raised again and...

BTW, I'm not much of a car guy. Was that a Chevy it landed on?

Yes this is a big opportunity to lose some valuable ground.

Tank stalling. False hopes rising. Someone needs to lock Chevy in a room and take away his "Trade a 2020 first for 4th Line Rental X" hot button.

There's a term for this: protective custody.
