[AKAChip]

God is Maurice ever a loser or what?

 

[PaulPooley]

Back to good 'ole CSW...

Why not go ELL for the second line as well. That should work this time.

I don't think this is the optimal lineup.

Cycling Laine through every conceivable line combination to find something that works. But nothing ever does. Now we try him with Ehlers again. It’s getting a bit pathetic.

Hard to say they’ve exhausted every line combination when Wheeler and Schiefele have literally never been separated for more than a couple shifts total this season.

Alright let’s not be childish or anything.

 

[PaulPooley]

Hard to say they’ve exhausted every line combination when Wheeler and Schiefele have literally never been separated for more than a couple shifts total this season.

I was talking specifically about attempts to activate Laine’s game. I would love to see Wheeler taken off that line at least for a while.

 

[CorgisPer60]

I knew deep down in my heart of hearts that Byfuglien would come back in and Niku would rotate out. Back to a f***ing 9.6m boat anchor of a 3rd pairing.

You utter pillocks.

Agree. Niku wasn’t good last night but I’d rather see his skill set in the lineup rather than Boy-u

Given that Maurice is the 7th winningest coach in NHL history, I'm guessing the answer to your question is "what".

He also has the most losses as a NHL coach...

Pretty sure he was coaching when the league was formed.

This Montreal game has disaster written all over it.

Montreal is hungry and hunting for their wild card spot and the Jets completely shit the bed the last time that they played.

The Jets better bring their A game.

I think Laine has been one of the better Jets over the past month or so.

Montreal haven't been playing hungry. Might be able to get them if you can get one early.

His overall game has been better but the dude needs to score.

 

[Howard Chuck]

LOL, I like the gif, but I'm not sure I know what it means?

Practice Audio:

Players: Bryan Little & Ben Chiarot.

Coach Maurice scrum topics: What has it been like the last 15 hours since the loss? What did he get out of today's practice? On last night's game feeling like the Sharks game? Is Dustin Byfuglien good to go tomorrow? How much of a difference can Byfuglien make? On correcting the issues. When comparing this team to last year's team that went 11-1 to end the season. Is there any benefit to having some painful lessons ahead of the playoffs? Status of Laurent Brossoit? Will Eric Comrie get in a game? Gonna ride Hellebuyck? Status of Bogdan Kiselevich. Bob Cole's legacy.

Choose the low bar my friend.

Montreal completely embarrassed us the last time they played us.

If the Jets can not stand up and play a good 60 minute game with structure and proper defense in response to the epic collapse against the Islanders last night this game will get ugly really quick.

 

[nobody imp0rtant]

Thanks Columbus for sending a really motivated Habs team to town.

This has to be considered a must win situation. I'm just wondering what fresh hell awaits us this game.

There is no audio from the coach on that page for me, just the 2 players.

 

[DRW204]

it's been better than what it was earlier this year, but it still hasn't been great imo

 

[Duke749]

Ok that’s funny and adorable. Still watching..

 

[grieves]

I think Laine has been one of the better Jets over the past month or so.

Definitely agreed. He has been excellent for a 20yo. A couple of mediocre-ish games recently but CHL is still over a goal per game.

 

[nobody imp0rtant]

Why is there no prediction thread up yet? It's the day before the game.
