With our present lack of depth, why are we spreading our pp so thin? At least stack one of the pp units so at least one has a chance to succeed.
I don't mind it. Create some competition, and have 2 options if one group isn't going well. Also when you stack I find some guys are just not really a part of the PP - seem kind of wasted.

For me the issue is they've gotten back to just standing around, passing around the perimeter and then trying to force something through a well protected box.

Moving around pulls the PK out of position and creates seams. There are guys in both those alignments who can pass and shoot.

EDIT: I did realize that Lu made an error but my point still stands :)

I'm sorry but having Appleton on the first PP over Gagner is just stupid. Gagner has shown he can score if given the opportunity, Appleton not so much.

Here’s hoping for :
KFC scores
Barron Gets a point
Stanley does not look out of place
Ganger gets some top 6 minutes.
Jets play 50 to 60 minutes.
and…..the jets score 3 goals At least.
Yikes that is quite the laundry list! Advice, don’t bet on gettin’ half that stuff!:teach2:

The Winnipeg Jets take on the St. Louis Blues tonight at 7:00pm. The Blues are currently the NHL's only undefeated team at 3-0-0, after a 2-0 victory over the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday. The Jets, on the other hand, are 2-3-0 after a 4-1 defeat at the hands of the dreaded Toronto Maple Leafs. Both teams are going in opposite directions, so let's hope the Jets can turn things around this evening.

We all know that St. Louis is the “Gateway to the West”, but here are a few fun facts that you may not know...

The tallest man in documented history was Robert Pershing Wadlow from St. Louis. He stood at 8 feet, 11.1 inches tall. I wonder if he could be a good pairing with Logan Stanley...

St. Louis is known to consume more BBQ sauce per capita than any other American city. That must be one messy city...

Before he became famous doing Skip The Dishes commercials, St. Louis' own John Hamm was a drama teacher, who taught Ellie Kemper of “The Office”...

The first successful parachute jump from a moving airplane was made by Captain Albert Berry in St. Louis in 1912...

7 Up was created by Charles Leiper Grigg, who launched his company, The Howdy Corporation, in 1920. He came up with the formula for the drink in 1929 which was originally named “Bib-Label Lithiated Lemon-Lime Soda. Which we are really glad was shortened.

It was one of a number of “medicine products” popular in the late-19th and early-20th centuries. Its name was later shortened to “7 Up Lithiated Lemon Soda” before being further shortened to just “7 Up” by 1936.

It contained lithium citrate, a mood-stabilizing drug, until 1948. No one really knows why the name was changed to contain the term 7 Up or shortened to just 7 Up.

In 1928, Jim Howe, a pharmacist in St. Louis, developed TUMS in the basement of his home while trying to figure out ways to treat his wife’s indigestion. A love story and less heartburn…two things we are here for!

Needless to say, TUMS caught on and Howe began commercial production in 1930 in downtown St. Louis.

The factory complex remains the main manufacturing site for TUMS...

If the Jets keep playing the way they have been, we will all be needing some TUMS before too long... So let be the "first" team to give St. Louis a loss this season!

Go Jets Go! :hockey:

Here’s hoping our top two lines can take advantage of a cold back-up.

Oh my word! Feel bad for the guy, no question. This also hurts the Jets potential progress. Arney behind the bench really does nothing for me.
He's got a better record than Bowness behind the bench so far. I think he's the eventual next head coach, whether sooner or later, this is his apprenticeship. If Bowness is out for awhile I wonder at what point the Jets call up one of their 2 defense coaches on the Moose, since that's Arniel's job here, and PK.

Well I sure hope you are dead wrong. LOL

Jets go no where but down if this is the case.
If it does happen this further proves my “old boys club” theory with these Jets.
