Pre-Game Talk: Jets At Sabres - 6 P.M. CST

[Waldo]

Never thought I would ever say it but Clitsome in over Redmond would be an improvement.

You must be kidding?

You must have missed the last 5 games, I'll fill you in, Redmond looks like a pylon when the opposition comes into our end.

If half the team brings the same effort as Burmi does every game we should do alright.

While Redmond hasn't maintained his starting pace, while he was on the ice vs Boston, the Jets put 16 pucks towards the Bruin net and only had 6 sent towards Pav.

hate to say it, but it seems the Jets are intentionally tanking the season for a low draft pick

Well, I wouldn't say that. I think the effort has been pretty good, at least lately. They just can't score and need more quality NHL players, but i don't see them intentionally tanking the season.

That may come down the road, but right now, I think they are truly trying to win games and get into the playoff picture.

Goaltending has been an issue, so has impact play from our 'top 6' centers - other than Burmi (and he needs to create more goals offensively).

Redmond has had some tough luck lately. He was directly responsible for 2 goals against in the Pittsburgh game. He's a young guy, I wouldn't be against him having a seat for a game and bringing Clitsome back in. Grant was starting to play better in his last few games, and sometimes a young guy having a game in the pressbox to watch and reset isn't the worst thing.

That's ludicrous. Where do you suggest this 'initiative' is coming from?

Seemed to make a bit of a difference with Tyler Myers.
