Post-Game Talk: Jets 6 - Red Wings 2

[The Blue Baron]

BACK ON TRACK BABY!


5 out of 5 John Wicks




ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!

1st place in the NHL ain’t half bad!

Kyle Connor is a superstar.

He's always been a top rw sniper but this new defensive ethic has really taken his game to new heights

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

Great bounceback game.
And Connor! He's on fire.

At this rate they will have a playoff spot in hand by American Turkey Day

 

[Jet]

It's wild to me that we have the 2nd and third leading defensemen scorers in the nhl and theyre on 2 different pairs.

Absolutely - he is much more engaged in all zones which helps his transition game a ton.
The "one and done" stuff we've seen previously is not nearly the same problem it was - he's stripping pucks, turning things up ice and that has helped him be a much better offense and zone driver than he as ever been.
I hope he sticks to this game style - no reason he can't.

They usually like to spread the jackets around but tonight they got bang on.

Lady Bing guy can score. I've been watching Connor since he was in college ball. He is what Laine could have been. He's got the foot speed you need to have.

Shhh do not jinx it!!

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

It shouldn't bother me that PGTs are quieter after wins than losses, but here we are

We scored 5v5
Top line won their matchup
Special teams were OK
Pionk played well

I guess there's just not much to bitch about, so people who don't know how to do anything else steer clear

It is what it is

WTF do you want?

There is no back and forth after a game like that because no one has anything negative to say. So we come here and make positive comments and then we are done. Argue with the positive comments and there will be a lot more noise here.

 

[winnipegger]

I remember one time I read a post on here I didn't like. It was a dark day. Ultimately I was able to move on with my life.

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

And for those who bash the Connor Schiefele duo. Playing all the time with the teams #1 center will be front and center in any contract negotiations with Connor. IMO at least he is the guy we can't lose because how much of a premium is placed on actually putting the puck in the net.

The Scheif/Connor duo has changed the script this year. Both are playing a better 2 way game and not losing any offence. In fact their offence is also as good, or better than, it has ever been.

The problem was never their offence. It was the amount they gave up. Well they aren't giving up a lot this year.

 

[White Out 902]

Ya, there interest ebbs during the wins but somehow flows for the losses. What a coincidence

Boy some people are just f***ing miserable and have to find something to bitch about after a win

 

[More Cooley]

That assist by Vilardi on the 3-0 goal…

 

[Nut Upstrom]

Congrats Jets fans on thumping my Wings so soundly. Was about what I was expecting.
You're looking great this season, hope your boys keep it up and I can join you all as a guest for a long playoff run.

Good luck the rest of the season.

What do i want?

It would be great for the guys who shit on players when they play poorly to come into a PGT to praise players after they play well

85% of PGTs after losses is posters saying "See? I'm smarter than the coach. If he did things my way, this wouldn't have happened"

But they somehow skip PGTs where the results make their opinion look wrong (or in the case of the "we need a top line to win it's matchups in order to win consistently" crowd, outright ridiculous) as the wins pile up

I honestly think that there are posters on here who hope we lose games while Schief and Connor play together just so that they can look "right". They're the ones who are absent in here after we win

And 85% of your posts are needlessly calling out other posters you have a grudge against. This is a sports fan forum. People are going to pretend to be coaches. If all anyone does is cheerlead then this is the sort of threads you get... short.

Wow, I don't think I've ever seen you post in a PGT after a win before.

It was such a Jet's master class that even the refs giving the Wings a chance with piss poor game management could not stop KC and the band! I do think Lyon was not great but the Jets making hay against non playoff teams is positive. I still need to see them vs Dal, Vegas and Col(when healthy) to know if this is real. The leafs game is a mulligan given the scheduling of it. Hard to complain about 9-1 but there are tweaks to be made. Columbus will be a real good test given how they are playing. Perhaps, then you will get some back and forth!
