Quick thoughts (8.9)....

CSW - Just horrible through two periods. Wheeler was particularly bad. Couldn't handle the puck, made bad decisions. Connor was also terrible through two. Scheifele couldn't drag them up. The third period was a different story. Scheifele kicked it up a notch and Wheeler had more urgency. Laine was fine, but still hasn't got his hands or shot back yet.

ELL - Little with another strong game. His defensive play was outstanding, as it has been all season. Ehlers was dangerous and is poised to break out, I think. As noted above, Laine just doesn't have the hands yet, though his skating is good.

CLT - Another typical game. Love how Copp works. Lowry was great again. Tanev with a dumb hit.

LRP - Didn't play as a line, but I liked Perreault's energy when he played.

44-8 Another great game by this pair. Trouba was a beast. Morrissey was outstanding. One of the best pairs in the NHL.

7-33 Pretty poor game from Buff. He as erratic, overly casual on the PP, and a disaster in OT. Chiarot with a couple of points, but his defensive play was pretty poor. His gaps are awful. As a pair, they lose concentration.

70-57 Morrow was pretty weak defensively again. Myers was okay, I guess.

Hellebuyck was meh. I didn't think he was very sharp. Caught out of position a few times.

PP was horrendous. PK was good.

Good to bank the ROW, that's for sure...

The Jets lost the first 2 periods, and won the 3rd period. They better become more consistent, and not rely on empty net goals to tie it up. Why can't they play like that for all 3 periods ??

I do like Connor moved down to the 2nd line with Little and Ehlers. It's time to shake things up, and see what happens.

This will be one of those wins where many players rather not review game film on. We plopped it on 2 periods and pulled it out in the third. Not a recipe for success.

Still, we are winning ugly which is important early in the season.

Want to see more of Ehlers and Connor on the same line. Give it some time, could be a lethal pairing

I was under the cilantro haze for the Tuba goal, my mind told me to run around like the ultimate warrior. But my body told me "Woah, slow down big fella and stuff another handful of hickory sticks down my gullet".

I don't know about that. I watched Connor fly into the corner and Ehlers stand 4 feet away from the puck waving his stick at it half assed. Ehlers needs to toughen up, he's too much of a p***y along the boards. I've never seen someone so scared to fight for the puck, he just stands stick length away swinging at it. Of course he never wins those battles.

The only way those two play well together is perhaps off the rush.

Another ugly win..time to panic right?..If we win 10 ugly games in a row..probably still time to panic. If we are 28-7-5 at the mid way point playing like this most of the time... its a travesty and time to panic right?

We Won...

If Troubs ever leaves he's a fool, he belongs with the team that drafted him...

Sheif deserves a big raise next contract… We owe him so much already let alone what we will owe him soon enough...

Little is back, little is more happy about it, than we all are...

I guess that's why they call it, the blues.... :naughty:

Go :jets Go
