I feel like your life would be a lot easier if you let go of trying to defend him
Hendricks out, Perreault in and Perreault was awesome. You're going to get comments like this, and why not? Our lineup looked dynamite.
Full props to Maurice tonight for sure: good lineup, and he hasn't shied from making line changes either lately, a lot of which have been effective.
They were out of some other stuff too that I see is restocked. So they keep adding items and getting more back in stock, so worth keeping an eye on
When Hendricks has been in, the 4th rides the pine and the top lines play too much. That's what I see. I think the Jets have an advantage when they can roll 4 lines more and wear down the Preds D. To me, it's not just about one player but about ensuring you have 4 functional lines that Maurice trusts.
I'm sure as **** not defending Hendricks.
I'm opposing the opinions that are so extreme they fly in the face of logic.
I've noticed your a bit new here or perhaps a converted lurker but I'm not a fan of Hendricks I just don't hate him, realise he had a decent season and would rather wish him succeed rather than condemn him to failure before he actually gets to play.
Some of the posts I've read recently about him seem to attempt to lay the foundation for us loosing in the playoffs by blaming Hendy and PoMo by extension.
We're playing the best team in the league according to the regular season and it seemed like a bunch of posters had us going 4-0 if it wasn't for Matt Hendricks.
I still prefer these two guys to the other two turds they had in the Wild series. Galley and what's his name, with the big words.

I think most people do not want Hendricks in due to what he does to the usage of the 4th line, rather than just "Hendricks herp-derp!". This is prime example of how TOI is distributed with/without him - it's not a direct comparable due to some other differences in the roster, but it does represent two blow-outs where you'd expect the TOI to be fairly evenly distributed:
I see a 3 line team, versus a 4 line team.
Doubt if the Jets hobble themselves in that way in a hard fought finals.Come on, just pop Roslo or Dano in for the 4th line one game.
It's harder for us to win with Hendricks in the lineup when there are better healthy options available. People are / were trying to understand why make it harder for us to win - just because?
Also, game score seems to get lost on those talking about TOI. I would imagine if the Jets are down 1 or 2 goals in the third the bench gets shortened even with this lineup.

You must mean Paul "Scheif the Knife glissandos one round the penultimate whiteboards -- what a pointed circumnavigation towards the puck-gobbler!" Romaniuk.
I don't necessarily disagree that it's about time on ice. However, I don't believe that Jack Roslovic really helps in the TOI.
Neither does anyone else not named Mathieu Perreault.
It was the Hendy vs Roslo debate that gets me as well as blaming him for the OT goal and getting mad at his penalties when Roslo and plenty of others took bad ones too.
It's the magnification of any perceived weakness that he has to 10x what the impact is.

I don't think you should know who it is ?? --I sure don't, but I sure like her looks--and of course her "patriotic" fan appeal is nice to see. Maybe if you hung around the MTS Center, you could meet her ? --maybe get lucky.
There was a post in another thread and Jack's Advanced stats are far superior to Hendricks in everyway. So yeah it would make us 4 line team. Obviously not as much as Frenchie but it will be eventually.
Enough with the Hendricks crap.
He did not play last night - if you want to discuss roster stuff, take it to the roster thread, or create a dedicated thread to discuss it. I've already issued a warning, edited, deleted posts, etc. Any further Hendricks discussion in this thread will simply be deleted.
It's like herding cats sometimes. I love you guys and gals, but...
Ehlers only has 12 shots through 9 games. He hasn't generated much.Ehlers is due for a goal. Laine's been good and got the ball rolling with his shot that went off of Stastny. It was Ehlers who created that play by drawing two players on him so one could argue that he stepped up as well. Our Jets are looking pretty good!
A team can also petition the commissioner to add names if extenuating circumstances kept them from playing. Unlikely they do it for Dano, but they might for Rosie especially if he gets a few more games in before the finals.My friend and I just looked and it said or one game in the finals. Is that the right read of it? That would mean that not only does Dano not get his name on the cup, but, Roslo doesn't either.
