I saw one play on the pk where Connor lost possession on an attempted exit and he slammed his stick on the boards.
I do not think the issue is playing 82 perfect games or even finishing first or second. It is does this team have the pieces to excel in the playoffs. They have proven to be solid in the regular season. It is a great start but is it sustainable all year??
Yup, the Jets have something like 157 GM’s.
Agree about Stanley and his passes and lack of "lugging" the puck up the ice. It's what? Three games in for him? And he still has trouble making a simple pass? He's been practici g the whole time. Right? I'll take Fleury. Actually, semi-surprised he has drawn back in yet. I guess as long as Jets are winning...
The way I look at being 7-0 isn't that it's a great streak ( and it is ) but as wins now mean you can have a bit of a slide later and still make the playoffs.
7-0.... 14 points
75 games left, Even if the Jets were to play just .500 for the rest of the season add those 75 points to the 14 they already have.... that's 89 points. Almost enough for the playoffs. And I think we can say the Jets will be a little better than just .500... so playoffs it is.

Bro - he hasn't been practicing the whole time. He had meniscus surgery.
I’m not worried … I have seen enough of the Jets this year to realize they have a good team which includes the coaches. Good special teams coaching does matter. The only thing that can hurt the Jets is major injuries but that goes for every team.The way I look at being 7-0 isn't that it's a great streak ( and it is ) but as wins now mean you can have a bit of a slide later and still make the playoffs.

Interesting that the top 3 teams in the NHL right now are all in the Central - Jets, Stars, and the Wild. We haven't' even lost yet and they're each only 2 points behind. That's nuts.The way I look at being 7-0 isn't that it's a great streak ( and it is ) but as wins now mean you can have a bit of a slide later and still make the playoffs.

Our magic number to win the division is 74. 67 to make the playoffs.Castillo kicks the convert and we win. 7-0. Yay.
Almost have a playoff spot locked up.
Just like the Laffs board...That's because we keep winning games. Wait until we lose one, we'll be up to 20 pages within an hour!
Hard to say. At his best he's not a fast guy, but even without higher end speed it seemed like he looks sluggish to me. I don't expect him to race up and down the ice, but I don't think I've seen him "engaged" so to speak. Might just be me though. I'm not worried, just something I've noticed a bit.
Sadly, it likely means this team is doomed. You have to go back about 40 years to find a team that started the season with 7 or more wins and went on to win the Cup. It seems like an even bigger kiss of death than winning the President's or Vezina trophies. Which could also come this way, in which case they would have the trifecta of karmic catastrophe.The way I look at being 7-0 isn't that it's a great streak ( and it is ) but as wins now mean you can have a bit of a slide later and still make the playoffs.

Some people need to realize the Jets are not going to dominate a game for 60 minutes ... this is the NHL not pee wee.
Two assists ... one of them on the game winner and Scheifele had a bad game???
Let's give credit to Seattle they played a hard good game but came up short against a better team. Jets had total control in the third period ... two good Kraken plays and the game was tied ... sometimes s*** just happens.
Now for team corsi score yes 81/55 were on the ice for 2 goals but was it really their play that lead to the 2 goals?
Pionk makes a long pass that's intercepted and a long stretch pass the other way and a pass to an open man behind the D and the puck is in the Jet's net. The first goal Connor checks the player but the puck goes to Beniers for an unassisted goal on a nice shot.
Scheifele/Connor on the ice for 2 goals against and 2 goals for including the game winner. So this is 7 straight games that 55/81 has not cost the Jets a game.
Well Scheifele is scoring at a 58 goal 117 point pace and has been involved in several game tying and game winning goals when close games have been on the line. Our PP our biggest weakness last season is also 1st in the league and a big part of that is 55 and 81.
