Post-Game Talk: The Voodoo is real Jets get Buffaloed 3-2

[Howard Chuck]

I don’t mind as much when we lose but losing with a piss poor effort is maddening.

 

[DRW204]

Our bottom 6 is composed of 3 waiver wire guys, a guy who hadn't played in the nhl for 4 years, Barron basically a throw-in piece that no one ever heard of prior to the Copp trade, and Lowry who hasn't scored in 23 games now (nice set up on the Schmidt pp goal tho)

I know we've gotten by with a great top 6 and goaltending. But it is crucial to get more skill down there at the tdl.

 

[RabidOne]

Cant win if you dont show up. 14 shots on Comrie by the middle of the 3rd?

 

[Channelcat]

Jets suck, it's PoMo's fault

Am I doing it right?

Yes, and don't forget our 6/7 defensemen and our 12th forward.

 

[blues10]

Yes, and don't forget our 6/7 defensemen and our 12th forward.

Im gonna keep it simple and blame the loss on Enstrom, Pavelec and Thorburn.

 

[Saitama]

I tried to sell my tickets to tonight's game and didn't get any takers. I'm kind of glad I didn't now, because I wouldn't have wanted anyone to pay to watch that mess.

 

[Dirtbag151]

Is it just me or are we really not built to play against the east ?
It seems like our style of play gets eaten up by east division teams
(Buffalo , Washington .Toronto , Boston so far)
Hopefully we can make some adjustments and improve on this come playoff time

 

[Potential]

The team's tired. They will be better after this gong show of this part of the schedule is over with.

We'll be fine.

Dillon really needs some serious prodding to shoot more though - he had some prime looks tonight.

Hard to tell if that's it with an effort like that tonight.

 

[bustamente]

Avs and Blues both lose tonight so the nights not a total disaster.

Tired from playing 20 minutes of hockey every couple days….

 

[johnnyonthspot]

Getting a bit worried that this is yet another half season team that is about to fall apart... like well almost every season...

I think they are finally ' landing' after a good start. They are as I thought a fringe playoff team. Glad I only had one foot on the bandwagon.

 

[WolfgangPuck]

Caught some Jets players using the iPads on the bench in the 2nd period looking to book their all inclusive vacations for next week

Every team has rough patches. Let’s hope that’s what this is.

desperately need to do something about the bottom six

 

[Heldig]

Did not know Buffalo is the highest scoring team in the league.

 

[MardyBum]

Yikes. That's a lottery level performance.

 

[bennylundholm]

Four of your f***ing defenseman at the bottom of the list for defensive impact. Are you f***ing kidding me?View attachment 642329

3rd line Wheeler brings zippo to the 2nd line.
Stanley should not be in the N.H.L.
Get Toews and Barbashev in our top 9.

 

[gojetsgo]

jeez ducks actually did us a favor and beat the red hot avs...

 

[surixon]

They look just as bad as they looked heading into Xmas. Not trying to make excuses but the NHL needs to figure its schedule out. We've played 12 games in our last 20 days and throw in a 5 game road trip where the team is traveling every other day into it. Is the NHL's goal to ice entertaining games or have teams play themselves into the ground in some of these stretches.

Anyhow the team top down wasn't good so not much needs to be said.

Our PP needs an overall as the current formation has staled the last number of games.

Anyhow I expect the team be recharged and back playing good hockey after the break. Much like how they looked after Xmas stoppage.

Our D was the major issue tonight and it started with horrendous breakouts up the boards into double coverage all game. No adapting and going up the middle or to the other side.

 

[JonS]

Soft as Charmin TP. Going to need better play than that if they don't want to be sellers at the TDL.

 

[JonS]

That last 15 minutes in the 2nd period was some of the worst hockey I've ever watched.

I would have to agree with that. The only positive is that I was unable to drive up for the game.

Every team is in the same boat. This was the Sabres 12th game in19 days and 4th game in a 6 day roadtrip including a stop on the west coast. They did not look tired. The other team should not look that much better than you when you've had a similar schedule load lately.

yes and every team goes through stretches of bad play(other then the bruins), we did the same thing earlier to the penguins that buffalo did to us tonight, heck buffalo had an 8 gaming losing streak including losses to the coyotes sens and canucks

Avs losing to a lottery team .... ouch the Avs board must be having a meltdown like the Jets board.
