Post-Game Talk: Dallas 3 - Winnipeg 1

[Adam da bomb]

Good: Lowry, Helly, Vilardi, Fleury and for the most part, Morrissey.
Not so Good: Stanley, Shuffles and sometimes KFC.
Missing pieces: Samberg and Ehlers.
Possible fixes? Shorter shifts for Sheiffle’s line. Sit Stan and put Coghlan in.
Practices. Extra laps for Shuffles and maybe KFC..We expected more.
Disappointed that Arniel praising Stan.
Not a good sign. Ouch.

Next game: Must win.

Why do U say kfc was bad? He was the only jet who backchecked on their first goal. Demelo should have got up faster and tried to get back.

I think we can now see that it was probably Arniel that pushed Stanley into the lineup for the playoffs last season.

The Jets love to say that the NHL is not a league for development, but they sure seem focused on developing Stanley at the NHL level. He's only been in 164 NHL games, so I suppose we should be more patient.

I feel badly for his teammates that have to constantly kill his penalties and try to make up for his mistakes.

 

[winnipegger]

Garret Hohl shat on the Stanley pick when it was made 10 or so years ago. I think he may have been onto something.

It's ok guys the NHL is a tough league and losing to Dallas and Vegas is understandable. If you had told me after 25 games the jets would be 18 - 7 I would have bought you a beer and said cool.

At least get the saying right: The jig is up,
Unless you think its a musical act?

I stand corrected but I called the losing streak!

 

[White Out 902]

Can't be a hockey fan unless you think your team sucks.

Yes that's exactly what I said. Want a cookie now?

 

[tbcwpg]

Yes that's exactly what I said. Want a cookie now?

No you didn't, only that a fan isn't a hockey fan if they don't think the team is about to have a full on collapse. Must only be a pie in the sky Jets fan.

Arniel... "He's a big body."

It's true, he fills up the penalty box like few others...

 

[Howard Chuck]

Every team that is beating us lately is hard forechecking. We need fast dmen who can retrieve a puck quickly and get it out before the forecheck can hem us in. If you’re fighting in a corner or cross checking guys in the crease, you’ve already lost the battle.

 

[raideralex99]

You can basically tell by the schedule if a team will go on a winning or losing streak.
We know about the Jets schedule.
Let’s look at the Leafs schedule … 4 games in 12 nights 3 of the 4 games the team they play plays the night before.
Leafs have the best record in the league in the last 10 games.

Was Arniel here with D. Lowry and Maurice too?

Almost as if they’re tired from flying across the continent every two days….

I think it’s time to change the lines. Put Connor on the Lowry line and Nino on Scheifele’s line. Watching Connor and Scheifele trying to check along the boards is sad … using their sticks when they should be trying to put the guy through the boards. Sure against the lousy team keep them together but against the top teams they need a power forward on each line. Roll all 4 lines evenly and by the 3rd period out them together and they should take over the game.

Fair enough. But my comment was directed to the use of Stanley over better options. Heinola for one is a fantastic skater.

Granted there may be more to them taking him out.

Like Ehlers

 

[surixon]

The top line plays too many minutes and takes stupid long shifts which leads to them gliding and trying lazy stick plays when they are gassed. Which is often these days.

It doesn't seem to matter the coach, Scheifele is going to extend his shifts looking for third/fourth/fifth offensive forays. Not sure what can be done at this point other the maybe limiting their shifts if they keep extending.

I cannot believe it's been 8 years and we are still having these Stanley discussions. I'd rather have Mark Stuart in the lineup at this point. It's exhausting.

Holy smokes! Has it seriously been that long?
