This team. I really don't know what they were doing 3/4 of this game. They looked completely discombobulated out there. No one Ilyas making good reads and as a result we squandered what could have been a bunch of decent looks. Can anyone actually tell me what systems we use because I couldn't see one tonight.

Helle actually came to play tonight which is the only reason we were still in it after 2.


Refs were a joke and gifted them that empty net on an absolute blatant trip. Good on JoMo and Dubois to give it to those useless hacks wearing stripes. I hope someone rips them in the post game press conference.

This really should make it easier for Chevy.

I'm glad that this will give us clear direction at the TD, and I hope that whoever the new coach is, they have an understanding of empty-net-mechanics that has at least evolved somewhat since the Expansion era.

Every time I see a team pull the goalie with 3 minutes left down by one, I weep. That could be us, too!

But what about pulling the goalie when you're down with 12 minutes to go?

Clown show all around….

Helly good except on two goals where he got lost and lost the puck…

schief, Wheeler MiA in a big game as per usual

NHL and refs. Caught a break with the Dillon puck over the glass after they had given Stanley a penalty for a clean hit trying to ensure a Jets loss!

painful season all but done

Copp dressed!

Oh wow. Add that to my list of proof of Roy's vindication. Down by 3 with 12 minutes left, why not. I suspect it would be clearly correct on a power play, where you only need like 2:1 'odds' (i.e. a goal for only has to be twice as valuable to your P(Win) than a goal against). 6-on-4 PPs are surprisingly resilient. Honestly, my only concern would be being hauled in front of the league's office on suspicion of throwing the over/under. And suffice it to say this mindset is far closer to optimal than Jurassic Lowry's bizarre refusal to start the PP with an extra attacker out in the offensive zone with only 1:20 left. Remember when Ehlers almost holds it in? If he's set up there, he holds it in.

I don't think he's necessarily saying that the smaller defensemen are to blame in that quote. It's more an indictment of the Jets defensemen as a whole in my opinion.

Relatedly, how the f*** does Charlie Huddy still have a job?

He should be on the first flight out of here after the year. This teams defense has been crap for 3 years now and the defensive coach still has a job somehow.

And that's how the season dies.... shooting the puck over the glass.

I don't even want to discuss WTF Lowry was doing when it comes to pulling the goalie...

Difference between the Jets and the Bruins... Everyone on the Bruins shows up every night to play.

f***... If Chef even played with half the effort Marchand plays with. Yeah, Marchand is an idiot, but you can't question the man's desire and effort.

Did Scheifele even play tonight? He was pretty darn invisible to me out there.

jets got outworked and worked over in their very first game against the Ducks and then again a night later by San Jose…Jet players figured they just had to show up to win and still do….team has no guts or will to do what it takes to win…captain wheezer overpayed and his boy robin scniefle play like they don’t give a shit MOST nights!
