Post-Game Talk: Jets 3 Bolts 2

[gojetsgo]

This may sound crazy but do the Jets play better without PLD? I do think he takes too many shifts off but to play great against the Wild and beat the Florida teams with Nammy at centre in his place is nothing short of unbelievable. I do not think the Jets are contenders but they seem to be playing harder and with more effort.

Chevy please also lock up both tdl acquisitions long term!

this literally gets said when every time a star player is out and the team wins, we are 100% better with pld in the lineup

I loved the addition of El Nino but had no clue that Namaste could be this effective. He is a solid player with skill and hard to move off the puck .

Someone could run the numbers since the trade.

It may not provide definite causation but I'd be curious to see the results

Anyways we can now give up the narrative this team has given up.

That sounds like a line from Monty Python.

I didn't watch live as I was playing hockey but I hear Essyimont scored for us? So glad we didn't let him go

A goal deflected off him. Agreed on the line after I reread it

Both Nino and Names were excellent adds by Chevy at very little cost. Not a flashy TD but a successful one.

and that's why Chevy is the GM and not the Jets HF.

 

[SSCBLUEJET]

Back to back respectable games by the bottom six has been the difference IMHO.

Don't the pens have a better winning % without sid than with?

 

[ps241]

Really pumped we found a way to get B2B wins in Florida. Huge huge huge series of events at this snap shot in time. The clock is ticking on the teams chasing us and their wins tonight only help they keep pace. We only have 15 games left we just need to keep finding a way because the clock is running out.

 

[SimpleSimon]

Damn game… I tore a hole in my couch.

 

[Gil Fisher]

I think Jets HF was pretty happy with those two right from the start.

I've always loved Nino. Haven't paid much attention to Namestnikov, but he's been pretty useful.

 

[Gm0ney]

Big wins this weekend! Back into 3rd in the Central for the time being.

 

[Gil Fisher]

1st period aside in Sunrise, the last three games have been something approaching playoff intensity for the Jets.

 

[LowLefty]

Helle back to being the difference maker against tough teams - but can't complain about the effort out there and the fact that we walked away with 4 points in Florida.
Sometimes you need a little luck and a few breaks and the Jets were over due -

Take 'em any way you can get 'em - and get healthy again.
There's more work to do but things are looking up.

Bottom six did take a month off.

I would say without Scheifele they are not better and they were missing Morrisey. I did not say they are better without him.

 

[johnnyonthspot]

It was a must win as both teams won tonight

I think we should focus more on that fact that we've won every game that Morrissey has been out.

That’s a W that should help get the confidence back. Refs had their marching orders, that penalty on Scheif late in the 2nd was garbagio and then Kucherov with an Olympic-esque dive made it a two-man advantage but the Jets fought it off and killed it off. Really battened down the hatches and fought hard to secure the win in the third, too.

 

[WolfgangPuck]

Give Dave R the next game
Helle was great when he played 2nd of B2B against the Rangers then didn’t play too good for a week after that

 

[jetsforever]

You don't always need the flashy moves. Most cup winners don't make them. They make the low key complimentary type moves we did. I could have done with one more solid depth guy like Name but job well done so far by Chevy.

Although they do tend to start with better rosters than we did

 

[Truenorthducky]

If the jets somehow pass the wild, you can send a thank you card to Stanley.

 

[Jets 31]

Great hard working win by our boys.

No way am i starting Rittich next game, Helly plays better the more he plays and we still need some more wins to keep up the playoff drive.

Jets have been oddly great on the second half of B2Bs this season

As I deal with writers block, here is the jets B2B Record

Oct 20: 2-5 L @ VGK (f*** Vegas)
Oct 28: 3-2 OTW @ PHO
Dec 9: 3-1 W @ CHI
Dec 18: 2-3 L @ SEA
Dec 23: 1-4 L @ WSH
Jan 13: 4-1 W @ PIT
Jan 22: 5-3 W @ PHI
Feb 20: 4-1 W @ NYR
Mar 4: 7-5 W vs EDM
Mar 12: 3-2 W @ TB

9-3 in those games. I cannot remember a record this good before. We easily could have won that game against Seattle too - I remember that one, it should have at least gone to OT.
