That was a scrappy win.

A skate blade save from OT.

Good for Perfetti to have a strong game. The 2nd line was the catalyst. Watching Namestnikov outwork Schenn on the GWG, that's what hockey is all about, battle level. Ehlers had some fire in his game tonight.

Credit to Adam Lowry too, not on the scoreboard, but another strong game for him and his line.

Kupari is carving out a nice niche for himself.

Liked Miller's game tonight. Getting scoring from 3 pairings is something that hasn't been seen around these parts in years.

Stanley didn't look too bad out there either.

It's kind of a nice ride to start the season 6-0.

Honestly Snerg has turned into a younger version of Dilly very quickly. We've got our 2LD as long as he's on the roster, I love what he brings.
He's had top defensive analytics for a couple years and now he's being less sheltered and that gives him a chance to play with and read off of more offensively creative players more often and he hasn't looked out of place doing it, which is very encouraging. I see him as a Slavin type more than Dillon, smart and responsible enough defensively to play a ton of minutes and his offensive numbers bump up as a result.

No, he's not too bad - him and Miller were the only plus dmen tonight, 3 blocked shots, not bad (or maybe even good).
I've come to the conclusion that this is the best the feedback will get for this player - not too bad.

I'm thinking Arniel played him today anticipating the kind of game we saw. Not as fast as some games but fairly heavy. I don't necessarily mean a lot of big hits, but close checking and using the body.

Im expecting close to the same game we saw tonight when we face seattle. Similar team metrics to the blues per the first 6 games, might be bit more of a challenge IMO. Daccord has looked good so far

Worse case is if leafs snap the streak.
arent the leafs a thorn in our side? when was the last time we won a game vs them?

Announcement - Villardi has officially entered Sip's doghouse. Could get a bit ugly. :laugh:
He's never really looked good with Connor and Scheif, seemed like he really enjoyed playing with Ehlers and they were really effective together.

I get it many don't like Stanley but he played pretty well tonight, he is not as bad as some think, sure he will have his moments but he pairing with Miller is working out. Fleury did well with Miller too. To summarize Miller is the D whisperer.
I am happy they kept Miller over Schiddy Scmitty and Dare I say over Dillon. He just fits in nicely.

Blues did well blocking a lot of shots and not giving up much in their own zone.

Top line getting their shift lengths under control this game. Please continue with that.

Helle back to positive in GSAx after a rare minus game in that metric against the Sharks.

I liked Arniel as the guy who became our next head coach because he knew all of the players and when Bowness was out last season the Jets played very well under Arniel . Really like how he's running the team and the lines, good job so far by Arniel and the coaching staff .

He is also a much better skater. Considering age Samberg likely surpasses Dillon by a fair bit as the #2 LHD. Of course Chevy will need to pay for that after this season. I think people should expect something in the $5.5 - 6 M range on a long term deal.

I was a Dillon fan, I liked what he brought physically and that he could step up when we needed him. A nice luxury to have a fighter who can play number four minutes respectably. That being said Samberg is a material upgrade as far as skating and skill goes. I think that skill has taken pressure off Pionk which has a compounding effect on the second pairing.

Ok let’s address the 10,000 pound Elephant in the room. Perfetti 3 points vs Sip zero posts.

This winning is killing both his joy and the volume of @sipowicz posting.

I blame Perfectan mostly because when he plays well it litterally scares Sip off the board. Dark days for the other doom and gloom posters too. :razz:

Never fear, a couple of losses and the Michael Jackson thriller video extra’s will be back volume posting to make up for these dark days to start the season.
