It sounds weird to say when he only got 1 point but Trouba owned that game, best game I've ever seen him play.

First bad goal Bucky has given up in a long time. He was very good otherwise. I nearly shat myself when Hendricks trotted out for the SO.

Patty needs to put D zone puck possession/exiting, on the top of his off-season training list even b4 skating. Although improving the latter likely helps the former.


I love watching this team play. They fully believe they can win every game they play.

Do you mean the guy that has the Jets in second place over all this year?


Lets see hot goalie with a .924 sv. %

Six real NHL D men

A really good top six with good depth in the bottom six,

but yeah I can see how second place in the conference is all on coaching!

I wonder if Maurice is attributing the team in 1st being attributed to his doing. He now thinks everything he touches turns to gold.

Choosing Hendricks in the shootout absolutely disgusting and shameful.
Hendricks actually has a good shootout history so people need to chill with calling Maurice a bozo for picking him to go. He did no worse than Little, Laine, Perrault and Wheeler who didn't score either. So educate yourselves before making comments like Maurice is a moron because in the end you are the pot calling the kettle black.
Unfortunately he was shooting against an older goalie who was fooled by the exact move years ago.Hendricks is known for his paralyzer fake shot move and had a 60% shootout attempt at one time.The goalies finally caught on to it though.Had Gibson stayed in goal he may have fell for it but goalies are also way more patient now a days and don’t fall for moves like that anymore.

thanks everyone for feedback on a hypothetical Jets vs Ducks playoff series.

I think we could beat Anaheim, but it would be a total war. We would not come out healthy.

As great as first in the central would be, I like our chances against Saint Louis quite a bit.

As for wild card teams, Minnesota or Colorado would be beatable.

Best jet Trouba. Also Roslo should have two points tonight a assist on Laine's goal but NHL.com said Liane's was unassisted.

About that 1-1 turnover. Pate you got to respect the blueline! If you get a suicide pass just below your blueline, you just don't stop it. Just let it go or give it more speed, but do not stop it.

Yeah I get it and I'm sure he's shown it in SO practice. I was just wondering if there was another motive.

I read today that Hendrick's son was with the team in Anaheim where he got to go out for a meal with them and to their practice. This was a huge deal for him because he was able to meet some of his favorite players like Laine and Wheeler.

In light of this, I have to hand it to Maurice for sending Hendricks out for the shoot out ...knowing how important this game was to him personally.

There's probably not one player on the team who would begrudge Hendricks this opportunity.....and not one player who didn't take note that their coach would do the same for any one of them.

Of course, I might be completely off base here, but it's a possibility.
