Top line wasn't good enough.
I thought that was Samberg's best game.
Morrissey looked iffy all game, just bleeding chances against.
Lowry line felt like they generated a lot but nothing overly high quality. I don't really feel like that line plays as big in front of the net as they probably should.
Felt like there was a narrative against the 2nd line in the GDT tonight. They were fine, they generated some high quality chances and didn't really cause many against.
Schmidt had a solid game. Basically like Lowry's line though, generated a lot but nothing high quality.

I mean I don't often question coaching but it was certainly an interesting decision to not use the one guy in the shootout who scored on a penalty shot against the same goaltender earlier in the game already.

People would be losing their minds if Lowry took a shootout shot ahead of several players, he is pretty good at shootouts but not 3rd shooter good.

Last 2 mins in the game you have PP and you can’t score … don’t expect to win.
Lowry scored on penalty shot … why not use him in shootout.
Jets need someone who can stand in front of the net on PP.
LB was very shaky … im shocked the Habs only scored one in shootout.
Over all still happy with the Jets play at least they got one point.

Put out your three best players with historical above average shootout percent, then pick up the d20 and hope for the best. I’ve never seen a shootout line go past 6-5 either way, and I think if bookies just made both sides -110 and called it a day, the vig would hold.
Not knowing anything about gambling and what it's lexicon means, this post has me as confused as one of Kanadalainen's fish posts. :laugh:

Yeah, we've seen it in this game. Also, it shouldn't have been a decision based on skill but based on mental aspects.
