Post-Game Talk: Buffed - Jets 5 Sharks 4 (OT)

[Mud Turtle]

Myers with a fantastic game.
That trade continues to look better all the time.
If Lemieux makes it, even better!
But if Lemieux becomes a regular one day, I have a feeling he’ll be just as polarizing on these boards as Buff is.

 

[Tom ServoMST3K]

Can't we all just get along, folks.

 

[Flair Hay]

Don’t mind Roslovic at all on that first line.
Is he actually faster than Connor? Almost seems that way. Like his game a lot.

It kind of looks like he is

I'm not sure they'll continue with three right shots on one line. Especially after that shift that tied the game.

 

[Robinson2187]

Holy #$%& what was that?! Looked like a junior game for chrissakes. Entertaining as all Helly though....I'm still vibrating.

That's the best game I've ever seen Brian Little play. Morrisey was fantastic as was Trouba, Myers, Buff and Fly. Armia sniping with Pate now? Bucky made some big saves at key times. He looks great when he kicks out that long leg for toe saves. Hope Kuli's ok.

Great call by Mo putting those 3 on for OT. Little and Ehlers beasting all night and mad Buff. Lowsy would have loved playing in this one...man there was some crunching goin on out there. Wheels not getting on the scoreboard but that's ok he was busy LEADING all night.

Someone needs to take KC aside and tell him he's holding on to the puck too long.

This team truly believes in themselves now and we all knew they'd be gooooood when that happened.

Does anyone know if they're still blaring Celine after a win or have they outgrown it?

 

[204hockey]

LOL, a veteran 7 mil veteran defender, arguably strongest guy in NHL did nothing to prevent fourth goal and than takes stupidest penalty that's embarrassing

he blocked the shot then it went right to meir stick and in and he was frustrated and took a stupid penalty. how was the goal his fault though?

I know I am.

 

[White Out 902]

This fan base man. We have some deep emotional scars to deal with when we can't just enjoy the win. Let's all light a spliff, have a sip of beer, eat a case of wings, whatever floats your boat, and enjoy the fact we're 16 wins over fake .500. I never would have guessed it going into the season.

And if that isn't getting your cherries to get tingly, think of a White Out in April. Oh lawd. I declare I have the vapors.

 

[PhilJets]

Win is a win... Got to keep on rolling.

Man Lowry's injury is serious than initial assessment. That's taking awhile now.

Hope Kulikov is back. He is very steady dman (THAT HERTL!!!)

When #55 is back
Perrault Little and Ehlers should be together hehehe

A storm is definitely coming

 

[Tom ServoMST3K]

I'd be kinda mad if I were a Preds fan. They seem to temporarily take over first every night, before we snatch it back

 

[Afterburner]

I know I am.

You playing it on the recorder

 

[Daximus]

I feel like Connor has slowed down a bit. He did what Morrissey and Laine did and loaded up on muscle and it's noticeable that all 3 lost a bit of a step. Morrissey still hasn't gotten his back. Kid used to fly in junior.

[Adam da bomb]

Little changing my tune. I just said today Lowry had a bigger impact this season than him and he puts in two goals.

 

[Instincts]

What I saw was he blocked the shot, then tried to knock it of the air, then it hits his skate and bounces to Meier stick, he isn't trying to shield the puck or the easiest way for a big guy like him just put Meier on his ass

 

[Aavco Cup]

It was obviously preordained

 

[sipowicz]

Little was great on the OT goal. Won a puck battle in the corner with 2 sharks on him and got the puck back to Ehlers, Buff does that same trick he always tries and again Little battled through a check to beat his man to the loose puck that was aimlessly passed in front.

Yet Buff is the savior? What the...

That's the same guy who stood straight up, knees locked and gave the lamest effort to try and stick check someone on the game tying goal.

This guy was awful all game long. One decent play and everyone thinks he's a god.

Unreal.


Little was great tonight, MP, Ehlers, Armia, Morrissey, and Trouba.

I thought Dano played well in his short time on ice.

Agree with all except the last line, Dano played well, not at all, he turned the puck over a couple times in the first two periods, thought he was weak on the wall and almost cost us in the third, really don’t get what he brings, he’s not fast or overly physical or even really skilled.

 

[Aavco Cup]

Actually sounds fairly optimistic about Kulikov listening to Maurice.

He is the weakest link, bye bye

 

[Mud Turtle]

Buff was not on the ice for any of our 4 regulation time goals for, and was on the ice for ALL 4 goals against.
So, beside the assist on the overtime goal, he had a terrible game.

 

[DharmaBum]

Little changing my tune. I just said today Lowry had a bigger impact this season than him and he puts in two goals.

Little has always had that affect on fans. He has always been a streaky scorer and when he isn't scoring fans get down on him and dismiss the overall impact he has on a game/for the team.

He has had a slow start to the season and my thoughts on that are that he is playing with 2 young wingers who he probably feels/has been asked to compensate for on the defensive side and perhaps he has been dealing with a nagging, but not out of the lineup, injury for a part of the season. And there is something to be said about the chemistry between the players; maybe the line isn't constructed optimally.

But in the end, he will be around 50 pts for the year (he is at 30 pts in 49 games) and fans will appreciate who he is as a player and what he means to the team.

I am a big fan of Little's and will ride out the cold scoring streaks having documented faith that he has a big impact on the game and lineup over the course of a season. Make no mistake that having Little on the team has a huge positive impact over the course of a season.

 

[bustamente]

If it's just stitches for Kulikov probably the best we could hope for, hopeful that a concussion is also not involved, and gets into the lineup as soon as possible only one game before the asg break.
