Post-Game Talk: Jets 3 - Hawks 1

[Inanna]

He looked pretty good,good skater, hopefully he gets more games.

He has to be a good skater because he got caught out of position more often than most defence men.

 

[KingBogo]

Don’t see chis getting lot of opportunities as hopefully we will have a healthy D so there won’t be opportunities for development.


Yet the coaches, plural, as it’s been that way since conception of new jets can’t see it.

All teams leading play more defensive late in close games. And all teams trailing take more offensive chances late in close games. That is why there is such a thing as score effects that adjust underlying numbers in those circumstances.

I'm not an expert on hockey (major understatement) and I probably don't watch the game as closely as most of you, but I thought Chisholm was awful today. Mistakes all over the place. Schmidt would be a major improvement over #47 and that's despite the 'large salary', 'need to develop the kid', 'needs time to adjust' arguments.

And while I'm in a cranky mood, I thought Nino was also terrible, flubbing all sorts of chances and even being out-raced on a few occasions. And I'm still waiting for Villardi to prove he is worth the first line.

Okay, I'm done.

He played incredible. He had one gaffe where he fell at the offensive blue line. Caused a chance but nothing more. His first pass is great, he's playing right as a lefty.
Great foot speed, great instincts.

Heinola is better, but I think Schmidt is getting a little slower and not an offensive threat.

Looks like I missed a good game. Was with the fam trying to pick a Christmas tree at the Windrift Tree Farm.

How did Chisholm look?

He played great. Set up a goal. Skated well.

Perhaps. My most frequent memories of Chisholm yesterday were of him racing to get back because he was caught out of position. He may be a great passer and have great foot speed, but he mostly used the latter to try and catch the man he should have been covering.

As someone pointed out, it was his first game up with the big club so he needs more oregano and thyme before we should pass judgment.

You spelled cilantro wrong.

 

[Gabe Kupari]

There is no doubt the only reason for attendance increase was for Bedard.

Dudes from Regina, Winnipeg is the closest nhl city. Could be tho afternoon weekend games = more kids since during the week, they all have school tho. Factor. Not sure Bedard only reason

And let's not forget Jonathan toews a winnipeg legend played for the original 6 team also

Lots of ppl bought mini packs they say, I'd pick Chicago in Winnipeg as one of mine if I could

And really, one of my goaltending heros at an extremely young age was Eddie the eagle Belfour, a Manitoban and Blackhawks legend. Chicago and winnipeg = history

 

[Gabe Kupari]

Chisholm looked better than Schmidt. Heinola in pre season looked better than both tho.

 

[Adam da bomb]

All teams leading play more defensive late in close games. And all teams trailing take more offensive chances late in close games. That is why there is such a thing as score effects that adjust underlying numbers in those circumstances.

But I wonder if there is any stats for most leads in final minutes.

 

[Inanna]

More than you realize.

I spell it C-O-R-I-A-N-D-E-R and I've probably cooked with it more than you have. (If I'm wrong, your wife is a lucky woman.)

It's was his first game of the season so i'm going to give him a little slack but to me the big difference between Chisholm and Schmidt is when they make a mistake, and Schmidt makes lots, is Chisholm has the speed to get back in position and Schmidt doesn't.

Yep, post #104 agrees with you. But I don't have the shade for Schmidt that many in here do.

I don't mind Schmidt but for 6 million a year i expect a little more, that's just me though.

 

[Inanna]

I understand but I've always pushed back against the "she gets paid so much I expect more" argument. Just personal irritation I guess.

President Biden is paid $400,000 per year. The head of Disney makes $27 million a year. The executive director of the Bear Clan gets $15 per hour. I made almost $350 in tips during a 4 hours shift last night.

Just a little coriander for thought.

Those numbers are pretty messed up. That the executive director doesn’t get paid more than a server.
From a hockey perspective you can’t build the strongest team if you are not getting the most for your dollar.

Actually, borh cilantro and coriander are part of the same plant.

Cilantro is the leafy part whereas coriander comes from the root.

And yes, Mrs. Jetson cooks a lot

I just meant there's a reason for the increase and can't think every game is going to be like that. Hopefully continues to go up but you can't use that game as a predictor.

Agreed, totally messed up (and ego says I point out I'm a bar assistant and relief bartender, not a server.) My anal retentive side has to point out that the Bear Clan leader actually gets more per hour than I do but nobody tips the people doing the really important work. I splash some brandy into a snifter, smile into a tired older man's face and ask him about his day for 2-3 minutes. When he leaves, there's a $20 bill left for me. It makes no sense at all.

Sure, I have to wear heels for a few hours and bitch about aching feet, but even I can't pretend I earned it. And it may be unfair of me, but I'll wager if the same old guy walking back to the Fairmont is approached by a homeless person asking for money, he'll angrily wave the poor guy aside.

There's something foxing wrong here and I'm part of it.

But not the cause of it. If you can’t fix a messed up system at least you can benefit from it. Sort of like Stanley’s opportunities over other players. He and other players aren’t responsible for how we overvalue some things like goals or size over other attributes like being defensively sound. (I know weak attempt.)

I wouldn't be sad to see Stanley put on waivers. We have quite a bit of bullpen strength so I don't think we'd miss him all that much.

I was trying to make a (poor) joke.
Cilantro on hfboards jets doesn't mean what cilantro means other places...

I knew your making a J-O-K-E which is why I went to the trouble of spiking it.

I'll probably regret asking this but what does cilantro mean on hfboards/jets?

Yep. He should be put on waivers, not his fault that others misplace values.
