After years of watching Jets play for a lottery draft I am happy we are comfortably leading in the playoff race
Anything can happen in the playoffs. Caps had bad regular season by their standards last year but come out on top.

We're still first in the Central and tied for 4th overall in the league. These are not the end times.

That and at the end of the day there really haven’t been material changes to last seasons beastly team personal wise (Toby and Joel notwithstanding). I get it we are not playing as well this season but the team is largely the same guys so yes it is possible they catch fire at some point here.

Yeah I think there's some tweakage to be done to optimize things, for sure. I'm just not ready to write off the season and join the ledge bandwagon. I mean, 1st in the Central. That's got to mean something, right? :)

A season is all about the overall trend of a team

We are going to make the playoffs, so we can have a shot at winning the cup...thats the bottom line and that's what we should care about the most

There will be ups and downs, and periods of highs and periods of lows

our last few weeks have been tumultuous but lets see how things shake up when Ehlers and Buff are comfortably back in the line up

+whomever we get at trade deadline, if anyone

Yeah, it's getting bad out there, maybe even worse than when I created the first positivity thread last season as a safe haven. Considering how toxic things were on HF last season and how well the team did, I am not letting the negativity get me down.

As others have said, this is largely the same team as last year. We saw how good that team could be and they gave us a wonderful playoff ride. We've seen this year's edition go into full beast mode a few games like the Tampa game. Playoffs are a whole new season and I expect to see that level of play as against Tampa when that second season comes. There is character on is team that will rise to the occasion.

Been very impressed with Poolman this year. This guy can step in and contribute anytime they need him. Also Comrie is having a very nice re-emergence this year. Berdin also quietly putting up a .936 in the A

So amidst the doom and gloom of Saturday night I got a chance to take my joyous 7 year old daughter to her first Jets game. She had allot of fun and even took a “my first Jets game” sign but didn’t get in the jumbotron. It was an evening I will never forget.

Things are gloomy right now, team is performing extremely poorly, but teams that win cups, always face some sort of adversity that they have overcome, this is ours.

Last nights version of this team, is one that could sorely use a Buff, Ehlers and Stone injection.

Like to add, as bad as we have played since coming off our buy week, we have still managed to play .500 hockey, going 5 - 5 -2 over 12 games.

Its not great right now, but we can easily right this ship with a couple of solid weeks.

At times like this I look to the penguins ;) Seriously, that team has a long history of playing shockingly bad hockey then turning on the switch.
