Post-Game Talk: Best in the league. 7 in a row. Jets win 3-0

[Gm0ney]

This is good and the Jets are 4 reel, but the Stairs aint goin away and they got some good ole US jam. Jets will need to pretty much win out between now and the playoffs to hold off the Stairs... They are gunning for #1 with games in hand.

The Dallis Stairs who just lost to the Duchs?

Edit: We also lost to the Ducks - twice...but one was on a b2b and the other was just an OTL during migration.

We have a 10 point lead on the 4th place Stars. The Stars have a 10 point lead on the 17th place Flames.

That's insane.

It's really impressive how the Jets continue to outskate their opponents. They have that higher gear that teams can not match, especially the Eastern teams.

PP2 with the heroics, but a good 4 line effort, on a night where the top line didn't really do much.

I wonder how much Kupari's recent play is affecting Chevy's view at the center position. He seems to be getting more confident with the opportunities he's getting.

I like that Ford kid, when he's wheeling he looks good out there on the forecheck. I didn't follow the matchups too closely but there's not really a weak line on Carolina and he looked sharp.

Samberg and Pionk are just dominating games of late.

I like the way the team played in front of Comrie. Breakdowns happen, but he saw the majority of shots.
Which makes saves easier. As an aside what do you figure he's on? The post game interview I was commenting on how much faster he talks than everyone else, reminded me of Kramer in his coffee addiction episode.

One more to go and that's a great way to head into a period of rest. To recharge for the final push.

I know it's insignificant beyond the symbolism, and we often mock other teams for having theirs, but I'd love to see this Jets team earn a banner for their regular season efforts, something no other NHL Jets team has ever done.

A testament to how good they have been.

Keep on rolling.

Happy birthday Mac.

Holy shit, Sip's on the Gus Bus!

Running out of whipping boys......game by game.

The footsoldiers were awesome, tonight...

3 bad turnovers in the first 2 minutes had me a little concerned, but Comrie was up to the job and Jets righted the ship.

Were Scheif and Connor suffering from the flu? Strange that PP2 started the first 2 penalties. They each had a couple of good shifts but were mostly invisible. Other lines picked up the slack.

Comrie was really good. Full value for the SO. He made it look easy by being in the right positions all game.

Jesus, when will the Caps finally catch up on games played? Feel like we’ll be waiting until after our Game 82 before we find out if we’re legit 1st.

It doesn't have to take that long - if they would just lose to someone other than us a little more often.

Another 2 points in the bag. I like the fact we have been beating good teams recently.

Those penalties were against the 1st line if I recall correctly, so PP2 is the rested one ready to go.

Underrated positive about tonight:

The team played well in front of Comrie vs calgary, then tonight they play great with him in net against a dangerous team and he gets a shutout. Comrie's confidence grows, and the teams confidence in him grows as well

Comrie is now at a very respectable .912 save % for the season. He has been a really solid, steady, sneaky competitive back up that has given his team a shot to win pretty much every game he has started in.

Great hard working game from the depth of this great coached team, now we boogie-woogie.....

79 points by February 5th ......

I know on the first PP opprotunity the reason the 2nd unit started was the Schiefele line had a really long shift and Schielele drew the penalty. I believe that might have been the case on the second PP as well as Vilaridi took the high stick right at the end of their shift.

I enjoy clicking on the STANDINGS button and then hitting LEAGUE.

The Jets are 10 points up and Dallas only has 2 games in hand, last time i checked you only get 2 points for a win . The Jets aren't scared of taking the Stairs either, they are all in pretty good shape.

We honestly might not see a season this good again it's been that good so far. I agree a banner for the best regular season team in the entire NHL for the Winnipeg Jets would be absolutely awesome.

To me this is why we wanted a NHL team back , being entertained by a very good hockey team all winter long. Obviously i want to have a great playoffs too but it's a very long and grueling regular season and to be playing this well is absolutely fantastic. Go Jets Go.
