I think we are all pissed off but for anyone who doesn’t have Chevy at the front of the firing line why? He has been the boss for 10 years and the full weight should fall on him. If a new GM wants a new coach so be it and I’d bet on it. But Chevy owns this more than anyone.

i was told as we got close to the POs, PLD's play would be "beastly"
i guess we have 5 more games to go?

No way is the loss on LB......I'd put it on Forbort if anyone.

Yep, and who thought that was even a possibility just a few weeks ago?!?!
What’s POMO going to say after this game? Reporters will lob him a few softballs
If Cheveldayoff had the guts, he'd fire Maurice before the playoffs.
Honestly the team deserved to win tonight, we totally dummied Ottawa and held them to like 5 scoring chances all game, we had 17. I am not down on the team for an effort like tonight, we are having a terrible stretch in terms of puck luck but if they keep doing what they were tonight it will turn around and they will win.
Brossoit played well and did what he could tonight.
Morrissey was fantastic, was the best player on the ice and was a force both ways for the team. Him and Pionk played quite good together the back half of the game and if they can get some chemistry going then we have one pairing figured out for next year.
The top line was starting to find its mojo as the game went on, they had a lot of zone time. What they need to do now is turn that zone time into more slot opportunities. Still too much from far out.
Stanley made a poor clearing attempt on the sequence that lead to their GWG but otherwise had a solid night. He plays physical and can generally move the puck well so that is an asset on our bottom pairing. DeMelo was very good as well out there and him and Stanley gives us a good third pairing. We may only need to worry about building one pairing for next year.
Our middle 6 lines had some jump but couldn't get in tight to the net enough. Lowry really was rusty with the puck tonight and was making some real head scratching decisions. First game back so there is that.
Ves was solid again as was the fourth.
Poolman and Forbert were very poor again. No surprise they were the only dmen under 5o in terms of XGF%. If we can get rid of both of those two and get another good pairing we may be in business.

Poolman out, Forbort out, Heinola in and Samburg in. No way in hell that isn't a improvement. Connor, Scheifele and Dubois all need to do waaaaaaaaay more.

Barely a minute left and we have Forbort and Stanley out there.

Here for the hot takes
I like Chevy's contract negotiations (when he's not pissing off our players or re-signing Stuart, Pavelec or Wheeler), but his planning has been abysmal. No defence fixes in 2 years, keeping a stale coach and failing to fix locker room issues. I like Chevy, I really do. I don't think he is capable of winning anymore, though.

Plenty of blame to go around on the GWG but zeroing in on that seems like it would be ignoring the big picture.

I don’t think there’s any openings with Moose right now
I wonder what our game winning percentage is with Ehlers out of the lineup ?? I'd bet it's pretty abysmal. We need Nikky on the ice -- he's really the team leader, and play driver in my mind.
I agree the actually carried the play most of the game but such a slim margin for error with them. One bad clearing attempt by Stanley and it is a tire fire resulting in a goal

Sawyer should be on the Canadian Olympics squad for the gymnastics he does to pump the Jets' tires on the broadcast.
10 goals in the last 7 games - but this team is just a "bounce" or a "break" away from snapping out of it.
This team shouldn't be one f***ing bounce away from the Senators without their best defenseman. That's the issue, Kevin.

What was true last year is still true now...

Jets could use a forward who knows how to score goals.
