If Pionk leaves it will be even worse, Jets will need immediate help that the draft can't help. I like Vladdy if he can continue to play the way he is playing but if he goes cold for an extended time we are in trouble on the second line.
Thoughts? If the Jets win 5 of the next 7 do the or should the Jets stand pat. Lowry comes back, Barron maybe after the deadline just might be enough to keep the train going. We have players that we can plug into the lineup and they seem to be a very cohesive group.
That whole line has some concerns about their ability to step up for the playoffs, but I think that's not exclusive to them, there's some players here who have to step up in the playoffs beyond what they have done in the past.
Yup, starts with the goalie doing what he is doing again this year but this time continuing it into the playoffs and the rest of the team following suit.
Are you sure that samberg wont just elevate whoever hes paired with... miller would prob be fine as our 2nd pair
That's the issue because he always goes cold for long stretches, he tricks us with these nice little runs and then drops off a cliff, I still think we need to get that elusive 2C with term but there just doesn't seem to be one available.
How do you feel about Cole Perfetti then who has gone 9 games without registering a point as compared to a season long 5 games for Vlad?
It feels great, I love when Cole goes cold, makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside LOL.
I think Chevy will look for any potential upgrade, whether it's at 2C, 3LD or 4RW (or anywhere else in the lineup). We're probably set at starting goalie though lol
Except it’s almost written in stone that Stanley is locked in at #5 defenseman. There in lies the problem.
I think when playoff starts, Stanley should line up during opening faceoff like Tkachuk and set the tone ala BUFF
hit everybody and then fight two guys - - - - but that won't happen Don't think Tkachuk would fight Stanley as you mentioned. Stanley is not an important player in comparison to Tkachuk.I think when playoff starts, Stanley should line up during opening faceoff like Tkachuk and set the tone ala BUFF
You never know what's happening with this stuff when it comes to the Jets, but I think every player is going to be waiting to see what shakes out in terms of the cap and how things go in free agency this summer. Some new high water marks are about to be set.
A new beer and burger tuesday deal?
Besides Corsi, Stanley and Miller are nearly identical statistically.
Really think we should be giving gus a shot at 2C...
That seems a little drastic, as the 2nd line is clicking. But if Arniel goes back to Lowry between Nino and Apples which was obviously working better with him than with Kupari maybe Iafallo-Gus-Kupari as the 4th line if Barron is still out?
