You can always high stick the player of your choice on the faceoff.
Some old player from Winnipeg died with CTE and of course there was a picture of dirty Bobby Clark absolutely with the dirty hit on the poor guy at the boards. Clark goes low with his knees bent and killed the guy. I hate Bobby Clark.

Sure it can, they start giving up a bunch of shorthanded goals

don't put that evil on me Luciano Borsato
Sens woke up. I was watching Sens Sabres and my brain kept saying 4-0 Sabres every time the score was shown.

The effort was there and the chances were there - but what in the hell is 55 doing jumping on a guy that could easily smoke him when Dillon is already out there - does he think that is his role? One of the dumbest things I have ever seen on a sheet of ice.
Anyway, aside from the above and the PP of course, the team looks like they are ramping it up - not sure what they are going to do about the PP - it needs to be destroyed and rebuilt - maybe with a few guys that will pass less and shoot more.
I'm trying hard to stay positive . . . . .

I think the problem with the pp is that we have these positions and the players all go to them and stand there. They need to just take advantage of the fact that they have an extra player and be fluid and creative. Create some chaos.
Tough to lose that one, but this time of year it's the new reality. One or two mistakes and failure to capitalize is all it takes to lose a game you play great in.
We had our legs really going but maybe a bit too emotional. Really good game. Still need to be better

Expect the worst, you’ll never be disappointed.
The after game show will is a joke on 680, talking the Jets up like their jobs depended on it.
Yeah they moved back into 3rd and looks like LA is going to lose. I'm sure Oilers won't be looking forward to playing them in the first round.

This season can’t end soon enough.
Playoffs are a different animal.
Jets will be fine.
Hanging on to my bandwagon ticket.

That's the frustrating thing for me, they actually did play a really good game and made Vegas look quite bad in their own zone most of the night...except on the power play.

All these games list on “not playing the right way” are on individuals, not on the team as a whole. This game wasn’t so bad, but the Jets find themselves in the place they are in with veterans , the prime culprit being the ultra talented Connor, refusing since being drafted to commit to playing the game on both sides of the ice.
I get it, he’s a winger being paid to pick his spots to fly the zone, but his game and the Jets win column would benefit greatly from hunting the puck.
The F1 forward places pressure

Also Ottawa comes in on Saturday still not having won a game on the road against the West. Could be setting up for further embarrassment.
Well, outside of the powerplay I think the Jets played well until the call was overturned.
Vegas got called a lot but also got away with a bunch more. A couple of fairly egregious high sticks, one one Samberg, one on Lowry.
I disagree with the overturning of the call on the elbow. My view is that the Vegas player pretty clearly extended his elbow away from his body into the point of contact which was the head. Didn't Dillon get assessed a suspension for a relatively similar player and the rationale was that he should have been aware the players head was down? How is this different. I don't believe it is and it's yet another nail in the coffin of the league losing a lawsuit for CTE trauma down the road. They just don't do anything with consistency. The PA doesn't help, but the league is the one that has to own it.
Scheifele needs to think. Bravo on the stepping up, no question but there needed to be more thought. I disagree with the misconduct but as @Jet explained that's a rule in the league in the last ten minutes of the game, so it was the right call as little as I may like it.
Also can @Ponds dig up their post on Brad Lauer while he was in Anaheim I think it was? Seriously: #firebradlauer.
And look, I'm completely aware that the Jets aren't going to fire anyone, which is one of the organizations' fatal flaws, but pull him off the power play role for heaven's sake. Yeah, we got a bump with Monahan coming in but we're right back where we were prior to the arrival of him and Toffoli, so that was a trade-for-a-cat bump or something, but the approach still sucks bad. We're ranked 22nd I believe with 18.26 success rate. 10% points behind the best in the league. We score on one of five and I believe the outcome of this game (not to mention a couple of others) is different and we likely aren't losing five in a row. That impact cannot be downplayed. Seriously we might as well decline, take two minutes off the clock and re-start the game 5 on 5.
This isn't a bad team, the pieces are there. They may well be tired and slumping but with some changes and thought they could easily bounce back to being competitive. How about we do that, m'kay?
Also kudos to Stanimal for a good game. He'll need to learn to punch though if he's going to play like that because sooner or later he'll get a rep and have to face a real fighter not of his choosing. That currently won't end well. But aside from one dangerous, ill thought out pinch that didn't burn us, I otherwise liked his game.

The worst thing that could happen to this franchise would be to crawl into the playoffs and be shown the door quickly. Imagine fighting for first most of the season, hitting the skids and golfing by the end of April, I for one did not see this happening.
They sure like to admire there passes, passes and more passes like they are trying to score the most beautiful pp goal each and every time. Put 2 guys in front of the net and start firing the puck.

if we play like we did tonight and the 1st/3rd of the edmonton game and get any sort of pp production we should be able to make a series with who ever we get
