I’m guessing they play Ehlers with Lambert as that is how they practiced yesterday. If you want to give the kid a good look you want to see if he can build a little consistency.

Retrieves pucks and ducks
I like the looks of that second line. Here’s hoping we get to see that.

I'm hoping that's the plan -
IMO, the second line is the one that needs to be sorted out - and I see it as a very important pce in the success of the Jets TY -
The top line is what it is - and hopefully we see more determination from that group (meaning compete) - I'm hopeful.
But the line that I'm most excited about is that second line - add Cole and provide Lambert a few reps in the middle.
If they can get that group clicking, we might have that additional scoring we've been looking for.
And not forgetting Names, wouldn't it be nice to add him to our bottom six?

Kupari really needs to show something sooner than later, after the hype about him turned into a big turd all last season!

I wouldn't be surprised if the lines going to Minnesota are something like
Perfetti-Lambert-Barlow
Iafallo-Yager-Chibrikov
Barron-Toninato-Appleton
Torgersson-Shaw-AJF,
to give Lambert a different look, with Perfetti, but more size on the wing. And some finish.
Hopefully the Jets send Samberg and Pionk to Minnesota too...I wouldn't mind seeing Stanley and Miller get a look tonight as the prospective 3rd pairing, to see what is really there, and have Lundmark play with Salomonsson, which would be I think an improvement over what Anhorn/Sauntner can add to the rook's game, with the Moose.

There goes the Jets chances of repeating as the Jennings trophy winner…. Re = more goals against….
I don’t have a good feeling of Arneil leading the Charges this year…
Recipe for cluster- fuk soup…..
Bones didn't play him too much on the PK (or maybe that was Arniel running the PK the last two years?).
But before that, I thought he was decently effective - didn't get lost as much as he seems to at 5v5. There's a little more structure to the PK system and he seemed to know where he was supposed to be.
Statistically, in 2021-22 (the last year he played significant PK time) he was the best, or 2nd best Jet with >100 TOI on the PK in CA/60, FA/60, GA/60 and xGA/60.

He has good physical tools to be a PKer... good lateral movement and can accelerate to loose pucks quickly
I think the biggest problem he has defending is trying to actively take pucks away from guys, which isntnas much of an issue on the PK

Released to Junior:
F - Kevin He
F - Jacob Julien
F - Connor Levis
F - Markus Loponer
F - Kieron Walton
Julien released back to junior (London Knoghts). As a late birthday / after Sept 30th he was eligible For the AHL but clearly not ready.
If he is not signed by June 15 th 2025 he would go back into the draft.
If he has a monster season in the oHl ….. we can sign him after Xmas for a 3 year ELC starting next year.

Is he injured?
I thought he was sent to the Moose, which given the small number of games he has played, is where he belongs this year.
Good thing then that the guy that was in charge of our awful PK last year in now in charge of the entire team.

Yeah that element is reduced. Any signs of the PK strategy moving away from 4 guys standing passively still and hoping for the best is a positive one in my books...

HFJets thinks they created this term?Did Murat steal the phrase power kill from us, or was it the other way around???
In March of 2019, Mike Pfeil coined the term “powerkill” at the Seattle Hockey Analytics Conference.

Lambert is looking like they are giving him a real look. Knowing how the Jets typically construct their lines, it seems like he needs to win the 2C (or 3C role if you consider Lowrys line to the line 2) to make the team. Recent comments by Arniel that skilled players may PK more, gives me a glimmer that we could possibly use skilled players on the 4th. So you never know, but there are other players and contracts that would need to be addressed.How my Seattle Thunderbird boys looking in TC
Can't add much to Milic though myself.

Milic got 2/3 of a shutout in the Young Stars, won both his starts. Haven't seen him since. As the backup goalie battle going into TC is Comrie vs. Kahkonen. Milic has a decent chance of being the 1A goalie for the Moose this season.How my Seattle Thunderbird boys looking in TC
Bauer didn't participate in the young stars, which was a curious move, as all other players in his age group were there. He's in a numbers game with the Moose this year, and has some competition for playing time. I read a good interview from him about fighting, and improving as a hockey player, so hopefully he has a stronger season. So far he has played one game this preseason, might see him again on Friday in Minnesota. He's down the depth chart here, with a couple of new defensemen in town. Up to him to show he can play at a higher level.
Lambert is getting a long look in TC at 2C. He's on the cusp.
So far so good. Lambert has a pretty big bandwagon behind him as people wanting him to get a real shot at making the team.How my Seattle Thunderbird boys looking in TC
