Great game by the Jets , it's gotten to the point now that every time Laine lets go a one timer i expect it to go in the net , what a accurate bomb of a shot . Tonight is just one more example of why i just love watching Buff , one moment he is mad as hell , the next he is singing in the penalty box . :laugh: Just priceless stuff and i love watching him play . Helly is starting to look like Price to me , very calm and cool , his angles are really good , not too many bad rebounds , just very solid . Man this is a good team . :yo:

I hope the Jet's leave the lineups just the way they are right now !!! One of the most important things is to keep Connor on the first line with Wheeler and Schief. These are big guys, and good at winning puck battles along the boards, and they get it out to a guy like Connor--and bang, it's in the net. Connor can work in very small tight spaces, and is our most accurate scorer "in close"-- he has magic hands.

I hope they leave Roslovic up as well, and same with Petan, as they are both looking real good. I've noticed Petan is driving hard on the puck, and playing with a lot more intensity, and goals will come for him-- he has very slick hands.

Also Chiarot has looked good to me -- not panicking, and making good exit passes out of the defensive zone. He's also big and tough, and we'll need his physical presence in the playoffs, when the going get's tough. Nice to have such depth.

It’s not the first game I have not disliked him lately. That is a step forward and I will enjoy it while it lasts.

I think he’s been average 6th D.. up from mediocre 7th D.

(Yes I know average and mediocre are pretty exactly same thing, but when I write it like this it sounds like he improved a lot.)

Didn't catch the game...how did our new third line look?


Btw, seeing how effective Patty is on PP...should we start to play him on both PPs...at least at times?

Thanks Paul for asking advice from us. I think eventually you should have him do full 2 minutes but for now PP1 is good.

Maybe you can sneak a look at him on PP2 to see how he meshes but don’t take that out of his PP1 time.

I liked everything about the Jets last night including that line. Felt like they had a bit more room so maybe that slightly softer match up is ideal “for now”. I know after the first period they all had pretty high ice time as well (before the penalties in the 2nd).

That line looked good - Copp doing a bunch of lunchbox stuff to dig the puck out for Laine and Ehlers. I think this line would be fine even on the road where you don't get the matchups. Worst case scenario, they get matched hard, and CSW and/or PLR feast.

It's quite a "3rd" line (in quotes, as their TOI wasn't that of a 3rd line - they were 1st in TOI in fact).

Yup top 9 with three balanced scoring lines and the rest is just labels that don’t mean anything. Keep the lines the same as last night then when Lowry is back put him with Armia and Tanev on the 3b line and now tell me how sexy that team would be......dam.

Roslovic is so interesting I have been trying to figure out why he seems different and I think I have it. Most talented rookies can score or set up goals when they have quality chances but they often struggle with the rest of their game. Defense, positioning, routes, forecheck, back pressure etc....that stuff takes time.

Rosie is the reverse.....he is a bit snake bitten on the points and they are almost a lagging indicator compared to the rest of his game. He is not flawless but the kid is advanced in his play without the puck.

That was a statement game.
A young player doesn’t try to pick a fight during a very one sided game and not expect push back.
Buff was awesome and I had no problems with the response.
Often we criticize Buff for his play and attitude but certainly that was not the case last night.
Buff is a huge part of the room and his response in essence is a signal to the rest of the league going forward that this team will not be pushed around.
Great win and a galvanizing moment in the Jets season.

I agree completely. Very smart player, very good skater, and seems to be very well positioned most of the time. Probably a credit to Vincent and the Moose - seems polished beyond his years/experience.

He's offensively talented, so as you note, I'm not overly worried about him putting pucks in the back of the net. He's so well positioned that he's getting chances - he's shown a proclivity for scoring in the past, so he'll eventually start converting those chances.

I picked him as my dark horse to make a difference with the Jets this year.

Nicely said. I have been one of those who suffers living on the fence with respect to assessment of Byfuglien's play.

Currently, I get the sense that Buff has tweaked and altered his game in during the past month. After the point (in the murky depths of December/January of 2017) where he made a few gaffes in the 0-zone, a poorly timed pinch, etc, the usual "bad" Buff assortment of goodies, it feels like Maurice told him to stop stretching for the goals - the goals will come - play to your strengths - something like that. And I think there was a major reduction in ice-time when Trouba went to the de facto first pairing. I'm not a psychiatrist, but I guess all of this (if I am right?) could be humbling stuff with a guy of Buff's psychology.

Somehow, some of that experience has tempered his play.

He has taken that wide-open-Superman-hold-off-a-guy- with-your-arm-and-lets-have-a-jolly-good-time-and-dance- around-the-crease-hell-yes-I-can-wraparound-oh-no-holy-suffering-mother-of-Mary-they-have-a-breakaway part of his game down a notch - just a few ticks. And, far more importantly, he has revved up his defensive game. And I love a good comprehensive statistic as much as anyone, but this is only my simplistic impression.

The other thing about Roslovic is that he's very strong on his skates, so he's very effective in the corners and in traffic. Add that to his very good quickness and speed, his very quick processing of the game, and his puck skills and you have a top-6 type of winger. His impact on the game is actually very similar to Perreault's, as has been noted. His style and effectiveness makes him an asset on any type of line.

Yup. As Maurice noted in his post-game interview, Buff has played a quieter game, picking his spots for offensive forays more judiciously. I think he's calmed down since the goals / points started coming. This style of Buff can play very effectively for a few more years, and I think he could be a force in the playoffs.

Here's a belated celebratory tune for the pasting of the Avalanche - too many family commits last night.

Ribonucleic acid freak out, the power of prayer.
Long halls of science and all the lunatics committed there.
Robot Lords of Tokyo, SMILE TASTE KITTENS!
Did you not know that the royal hunting grounds are always forbidden?

Are you rolling tape now? Bits and pieces large and small
Sector, vector, eat them all.
It's already in their eyes.
Among the metal ones a messenger will soon arrive.

Yep. His "Forecheck-fu" is strong, similar to Perreault. Doesn't quite have the "Danger! Danger! Will Robinson!" reckless abandon of Perreault, but gets on the puck quickly. Connor has this trait as well - nothing like highly skilled "grinders" who can skate, score and dig for pucks. Good combo.

Roslovic actually seems more composed, while bringing the same speed and tenacity on the puck. I think Roslovic is just scratching the surface of his skillset at this point. Connor is on pace for about 25 goals and almost 50 points as a rookie. He's also learned how to be quick and tenacious on the puck. With a bit more strength and experience, he's going to be deadly. The Jets have ridiculous young talent and depth at forward.

Absolutely love Roslovic’s game. No need to comment further on that.
But also, in addition to the extra hustle and urgency in Petan’s game, yesterday I noticed that he’s now really making quick decisions with the puck in most cases. Good to see that his NHL brain is growing as well.

As good as our other youngsters have been, Roslo is the only one I'd want to see on the PK.
