Post-Game Talk: Jets 6 - Red Wings 2

[KingBogo]

I think the smartest posters we have look at these things holistically. Basing opinions of players play off seasons and not game-by-game. One game doesn't change anyone's mind. But 20 games or half a season definitely will.

Love that Pionk is putting up huge numbers and has been good most games. Doesn't move the needle for me a lot for what to do with him the next 5 years. Yet.

Love that Connor is playing well and showing more effort defensively and part of a great PK. On top of leading the charge scoring for the best PP in the league 10 games in. When that's been maintained for 20 games or half a season I will absolutely look at him in a new light.

And nothing much has changed with Ehlers as he is doing what most thought he can do with full time top PP unit. The 5v5 stuff didn't change much from one game, but it's always nice to see our top line dominate.

This team is so similar in personnel and coaching system it really does feel to me like a continuation of last year. Every year is a new year, but I don't think of it that way when evaluating guys and forming an opinion. In my mind it's almost like game 98 of 2023-25

Looking like maybe the coaching transition to Arniel may be the right move at the right time. We can't keep up our torrid pace but if we keep getting better we are in for an amazing season.

Our PP play is far different and improved far beyond Ehlers. Much more movement by everyone.

I didn’t read that in the post. I read Ehlers is doing well on pp, but, he is a small part of a larger picture.

I only caught the 2nd period so I don't have much good to say...

Ouch.
The first period was where it was at... as Damone said in Fast Times at Ridgemont High:

"Three. Act like wherever you are is the place to be."

I did watch the extended highlights this morning. That top line was clicking.

Ben Chiarot's contract might be Exhibit A in the People of Detroit vs. the Yzerplan civil trial.

I just scrolled through to find the your positive, uplifting post about the game last night. It's strangely absent. That said, you were very quick to post in the last PGT about Stanley lol

You're exactly the type of poster I'm talking about. You give me shit about complaining about negative posters, but then complain about me doing so. Ironic

Haha true
