The Winnipeg Jets look.. bad

[1specter]

They should be fine, though I don't think Helle repeats last year personally. I read something about how his underlying goalie numbers showed that he overachieved last year, and the Jets also had excellent D.

Paul Maurice is also a very weird coach. His teams will perform really well for a season then be back in the gutter the following year.

What exactly did watching the game tell you that the stats don't?

Aaaaahahaha it's like a meme come true.

 

[Hank Chinaski]

Do you have reading comprehension issues? I said, "What DID watching the game tell you".....not "what CAN watching the game tell you..." Past tense vs. future tense, referring to 1 game vs many. You are trying to make it seem like I made some overarching assertion that stats mean everything....of course there is value in watching the game, I just don't think the eyetest said anything the stats didn't in THAT particular game.

Just admit that you didn’t watch the game and have no clue what you’re talking about, like nearly every single post of yours about the Jets has demonstrated time and time again.

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

The eye test is the contexts of the stats, amd the contexts says your making a fool of your self

Just put that fool on ignore. He's not worth anyone's time.

I’d be interested in seeing how this was determined. How can you say overachieved when your baseline NHL comparison is one below average full season, and a pretty good 26 game rookie trial. Never mind that he’s dominated at all levels prior to the NHL.

I’m not saying that Helle’s real ability is 0.924 and that there won’t be some regression, but there seems like a methodology issue here when we’re talking about a goalie with a relatively small NHL sample size to draw from.

Without Petterrson, The Jets should roll over the Canucks. That is something. The Jets are similar to the Oilers. One hit wonder. Such an unlikable group of players. Armia was a bright spot, in that regard. Hopefully the cap forces them to dissolve some of that putrid core, for a nice retooling. I miss the Thrashers.

Bad 5 games at the start season: Panic time

Bad 5 games in January: No one notices

 

[tapi]

This is what you get when you put your faith in one dimensional scorers instead of well-versed centers. Turns out there is nobody to carry the team in times of need. Well, it was high time this was broken down to the Jets fans too.

 

[The Winter Soldier]

The Jets have one more point after 6 games than last year when they hit 114 points.

 

[Karl Eriksson]

Intimate arena tho

 

[6ix]

I took Ehlers over Nylander in a box pool cuz of the contract situation, ehlers is a bum

 

[Hank Chinaski]

They’ll roar back, burn down some villages.

Mark Scheifele is cannon.

3 Winnipeg Jets threads on the main board?

This is an outrage!

And the only people bringing up the Leafs is non Leaf fans.

Losers.

Whaa whaa whaa. Calling them unlikeable and putrid? Someone's bitter.

The Jets are my pick for the SCF from the West. C'mon guys, I need the validation. No more losses the rest of the way.

 

[Halla]

I think the jets are the most overrated team in the league.

they made a huge stride last year but still have a lot of question marks.
who replaces stastnys production at 2c?
can hellybuyck be a vezina contender again? if not they are in trouble
when does nik ehlers break out of his slump? 23 games now without a goal

 

[Turin]

They need another center between Laine and Ehlers and another top 4 Dman even when Buff gets back. Little is pretty good but doesn’t seem to compliment those guys a lot. Also not sold on Maurice.

Roster is mostly stacked though, their forwards are awesome.

 

[mattihp]

Paul Maurice is too rigid in his lines and his thoughts about the game. I suspect his assistents get very little say. If something works the first time, he is going to try it at least 20 times more. He needs to be flexible and see that things change.

 

[Saitama]

Lol, all the usual suspects absolutely leaping into this thread with glee! Here's a hint guys, when all you do is trash a team, nobody takes you seriously in threads about that team!

Its more about how they are looking..

 

[McNuge]

This is how I know you have ZERO idea of what you are talking about....That's exactly what EXPECTED goals are...weighted shots....don't you have any idea of what the concept is? You clearly don't.

Yes, I've got no idea what I'm talking about coming from the guy who thinks you can understand what happened in the game by looking at box scores... You would make a great hockey GM buddy

They only had Statsny from the trade deadline, when they were already one of the top teams in the league.

Tune in next week for another episode of "EARLY! SEASON! SILLINESS!!!!!!"

Side note: After playing 6 games, we currently sit 3 points behind Nashville for top spot in the central. Has a team ever been able to overcome such a deficit with only 76 games to play?

 

[Mickey Marner]

Meh, it's mid-October. Outside of season year, they do tend to play like less than the sum of their parts, but I think that's mostly mediocre coaching.
