No game tomorrow. Hopefully this gives a chance for Buff/Morrissey/Copp to get healthy and return.

A bit worried about this one- the Jets have beaten the Blues in all the 3 games so far this season and the Blues have lost all 3 in a somewhat embarrassing manner (blowing a 2 goal lead in the 3rd, 5-1 blowout loss, 8-5 blowout loss Laine 5 goal game) so they will be angry and wanting revenge. Back to back wins this weekend will put us back into the fight with the Preds to be #1 in the Central.

With Pietrangelo on the IR, Blues look even weaker. But those are the games when you think it's a cakewalk you find yourself in a battle. See how the legs are coming off a road trip.

Lol, You realize you pretty much post this every game, right? You might be the most damaged, the Jets sucked for so long I'm afraid the dream will end any minute, fan I've seen. :laugh:

We've got this. Buff is skating again, our replacement D is oiled up and hitting on almost all cylinders. Helle Boy is dragging himself from his psychological responsibilities and IMHO morale is pretty high.

If Copp recoups then our 4th line can be lego'ed back together and Appleton can continue to show us why he's an NHL'er.

You've got to think the Blues will dig in but their tendies must be existing under a siege mentality.

Any word? Is it Helly or Broissot? Lemieux or Petan?

Little early for that, don't usually hear lineup details until game day.

Would guess that Helle will start, and hopefully Copp is back in the lineup so that both Lemieux and Petan are sitting.

Have to go with Helle, he earned the start. Laine and Connor with 2 each. Niku is looking better every game he plays.

Helle should start, coming off arguably his strongest game of the season , they'll want to keep him rolling and hope he gets in the groove.

Hope Buff, JoMo and Copp are back, I'd wait on Kuli and Morrow a bit longer, Niku's game hs started to show some signs of being very useful and more of what the Jets need.

Beyak mentioned last broadcast that Kuli may be good to go on Friday. I'd guess Buff, Morrissey and Copp will all be good to go. Will be interesting to see who of Petan and Lemieux gets shipped to the Moose.

If its a choice of Lemieux, Petan, or Appleton for line 4, i choose Appleton. Also thought Helle looked good against the Islanders. Jets need him to remember that game moving forward.
