Post-Game Talk: Jets 5-Devils-4

[jkrdevil]

I do wonder if this happens if Cory stays in the game healthy.

Severson looked lost on the goal that hurt Cory as well

They likely win

Holy ****. I don’t even know what to say. Jack had a miserable game, but in what universe does an AHL fodder-level possession anchor add “stability” to a line. You want stability, you put Coleman there. Or you put Jack at wing next to Zacha or Zajac. Jesus Christ.

Hayden only played 1:27 in the third and was on for 2 goals against.

I wonder what Dellow and Matt Cane think of that decision.

Putting blame on an 18 yr old is pretty laughable.

I don't think it's blame.... I think people are looking for things to bitch about specifically not to critique Hughes performance.

In a "Nothing to see here, move along" kind of way.

i can't believe we have to send hughes back to high school this sucks i knew we should have drafted crappo cocko

Hughes was a rookie in his first NHL game coming off a very good preseason. He gets to have some slack.

can someone cut jack some slack?!


…that said, i hope our jack outdoes that other jack tomorrow

It’s odd to try to drop this on him or an ice cold Blackwood and try to ignore a couple of vets who played like total ass.

I would like to see the Corsi numbers through 2 periods. I’m thinking that shift that led to the tying goals skewed things a bit.

The Gusev-Hughes-Bratt line was 4-7 with 0 Ozone starts, 2 Dzone starts and 4 on the fly starts. Still bad but the 3rd period he must've gotten outshot like 2-10 or something. It's safe to say putting Hayden there was moronic

 

[bigdog16]

As a Rangers fan....Im annoyed af you guys got Gusev. He is really good

Absolutely, Kappo is crushing Hughes in points with a 0 point lead

Who?

my thoughts exactly. I wanna know

It's easy to give Hynes credit when we look good in a losing effort, but now that he actually has the horses it's pretty obvious that his decision making is the weak link on this team.

Hughes sucked but still wasn’t a -4

They got caught out there for like 5 minutes on the way to the eventual tying goal. They had a few chances to clear and didn’t. Hayden definitely did and of course Severson.

Overall one of the few bright spots tonight over the course of 60 minutes. A couple of soft defensive plays, but the offensive skill is obviously there and seems to constantly be a threat. We’ll see how consistent he can be though.

 

[Auto Pilot]

I wonder what Dellow and Matt Cane think of that decision.

Dellow probably had to be locked in a closet so he doesn’t club Hynes with a skate blade first.

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

@Emperoreddy no looking at spreadsheets, severson sucked but vats had a good game, some people would defend severson to death but turn around and say vats blows

Severson was significantly better than Vatanen last season. Vatanen almost certainly shouldn’t be and won’t be resigned. I like him, but he’s injury prone and will be overpaid.

 

[Classic Devil]

He did some absurdly stupid **** tho. Tried to carry it out through the middle next to his own net. Twice. Lost puck in slot both times. That **** is INSANE and flat out selfish at the NHL level. Unacceptable.

Oh, and a dumb telegraphed drop pass that easily could have led to a 2 on 1. This isn't the USHL. Stop playing like it is.

Not being a hater or whatever...but he had a horrendous game. Gusev on the otherh and I thought looked great.

We can point out he did not play well, but again - NHL rookie in first NHL game. And a NHL rookie who needs to play aggressive and risky to perform, as that's the game of a player like Hughes. He's going to make mistakes. That's both anticipated and desired. The last thing we want is for him to make every safe play and cripple his offensive instincts.

Again, Hall is a pending UFA looking to be paid. He's a veteran and the team leader. This is his team. And he was invisible.

Didn’t Hall lead the team in shots? He was through 2 periods at least.

First game since December.

Do they bench Hughes for Boqvist tomorrow?

That would be stupid.

lol

 

[Oneiro]

If I have to say one thing, it's that Nico is looking like the true leader of this team on the ice. So many nifty plays tonight.
