[Raspewtin]

horrid period

give the team some xannys because that was embarrassing levels of jitters

Quinn is an inexperienced NHL coach. He has a lot to prove.

that goal had nothing to do with the system

As much as I hate to say it, it’s true. I still believe in his potential and in his ability to get the most out of young players.

Trouba shouldn't be on the 1st PP, Buchenvich needs to be stronger on the puck. Winnipeg is playing physical and hungry. We're at like 60%. We cashed in on 1 of 3 Marc Staal goals this year already just to come out even after getting battered.

 

[nevesis]

Kappo needs to be on the first pp

No idea why he wasn’t. Hope that changes quick.

ADA and Kakko should be on the first unit

 

[EdJovanovski]

Trouba stinks

 

[robertocarlos]

Sorry wrong thread. I'm reading yours and posting in Jets.

 

[Mac n Gs]

They pretty obviously have the jitters in the first period of the first game of the season. It'll change once they settle down, and it's not surprising that a veteran team like WPG is so well-synced and structured compared to us.

 

[effen]

it's freaking game 1 against a good team and the rangers are green af

lol at you people

a month of training camp doesn't matter, but 16 minutes twice or three times more against semi-AHL squads would have made all the difference, apparently

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Super jittery first period.

Hajek in particular looked like he was shitting his pants all period which is weird bc he’s one of the kids who’s already played in the NHL.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Could definitely try to get Kakko a little more involved...feels like they’re trying to ease him in, idk if that’s what we should be doing tbh.

 

[Levitate]

TBH, Buchnevich doesn't look great.

whole first line doesn't look good

This is the "new NHL"

teams don't start the season being lazy and casual anymore, they're after every point they can get. Winipeg is still good and they're a beter team than the Rangers.

The rangers have a bunch of rookies and young players, people shouldn't expect them all to be stars as soon as they hit the ice.

It's gonna be a battle for things to get settled down

 

[LeetchisGod]

Good pk thats about it for that period. And get Buch off the first unit and Kakko on it please

Makes zero sense. Kakko and Panarin were working magic together. Quinn decides that we don't need any more of that.

 

[NewLife]

Kappo needs to be on the first pp

Yeah they pulled Buch after hes fumble the puck a bunch. Kappos fat ass will protect the puck in the second.

 

[Zibanejbread]

Tied after a bad period... hope they come out more relaxed and at least look better

 

[bl02]

TBH, Buchnevich doesn't look great.

He gets run over. Unless Quinn is super stubborn it won't be long before Kakko is on the first pp unit. Do it now please.

 

[Ukkosenjumala]

I don't see any reason why Kakko shouldn't be on the 1st PP looking at the alternatives and what he did in the pre-season.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Super jittery first period.

Hajek in particular looked like he was ****ting his pants all period which is weird bc he’s one of the kids who’s already played in the NHL.

Making the team out of camp and playing in the opener is definitely more nerve wracking than being a mid season callup IMO

 

[will1066]

As bad as Skjei was in that period, I don't blame him for that goal. Winger has to be around down low for support. Haven't seen any good handoffs from the D to the forwards, and that's primarily Jets pressure but also us not being in sync. Thank Quinn for dressing the full lineup ZERO preseason games and not getting them acclimated.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Yeah that’s true and he actually talked about being super nervous about making the team and about opening night.

Hopefully the vets can settle everyone down in the intermission.

 

[Levitate]

I don't see Buch as a problem on that line at all. In general the team is just struggling to move the puck upthe ice with possession and establish some stuff in the offensive zone. that's not on any one player

 

[chosen]

Winnipeg just looks faster, stronger, and smarter, which isn't shocking.

 

[effen]

people already mixing and matching the lines to give their favored sons top time and situations 1 period in. impressive.

Panarin and Zibanejad look much better, Buchnevich was clearly the weakest link there.

Not sure what 95% of your post has to do with what I said.

But anyway as I was saying before the season started, Trouba's not a PP guy so I don't get what he's doing there. He's not good at it.
