Post-Game Talk: Jets fall to the Knights 3 -1

[Adam da bomb]

Reality? I want no part of the reality that thinks Joe Morrow is a better hockey player than Toby Enstrom.

Hey, Morrissey only has 1 point these playoffs, maybe Morrow should come in for him. The only place you place any value is the score sheet, it's pretty short sighted. It's clear you have no idea what makes guys like Enstrom or Morrissey as good as they are, it's no use discussing it.

If only Enstrom was still as good as Mo.

The top scorer in the playoffs gets crosschecked to the ice over and over and the refs allow this crap?

$500 M in expansion fees does have it's benefits!

I thought the owners got that not the refs.

Look there are more suckers in Seattle willing to pay even more for a franchise, you think the NHL wants to blow that calling an impartial game when with a little help an expansion team could be playing in the Stanley Cup Final!?!

Your right --it's no use discussing it--so let's don't. Morrissey has a great hard accurate shot, and is very good defensively --there is no comparison between him and Enstrom. I don't think Enstrom will be with the Jets next year--for you to discuss--unless he's willing to take $ 1.5 mil per year. It's all he's worth.

It gets split evenly amongst all the other teams. It does not count as revenue (and thus does not need to be split 50/50 with the players).

 

[Weezeric]

How many points does perreault have over his last, say, 40 games? How many at 5v5? Can't be more than a handful

 

[Adam da bomb]

little must be so happy he signed his 5 mil at the perfect time. Last year.

Sadly Enstrom no longer has a shot, I’m not talking NHL level or even AHL level shot, he doesn’t have any kind of shot left period!

 

[Kaako Kappo]

The play of Ehlers warrants second line changes, in my opinion. Change him and Perreault.

 

[sipowicz]

A lot of talk about not worrying about secondary scoring from various posters and media sources around Winnipeg, but aside from Tanev’s 4 goalsin the Minny series no one from the bottom six has contributed jack squat aside from Armia’s fluke goal in game vs Vegas!

 

[sipowicz]

Better yet sit Ehlers a game and dress Roslovic!

We obviously need at least 1 of 2 in vegas. Hopefully at this point there is no crap in Vegas with so much on the line. The guys are there to play hockey. For whatever reason we continue to play better when the series is tied, we don't seem to have a killer instict to put a team down 2 games. Probably not a good sign. But if we can go up 2-1 next game, all is good again until the next one.

 

[PhilJets]

Man i want game 3 to start already.

Jets couldn't get anything going.

1st time Schiefele probably felt another team is constantly keying on him.

Go Jets Go

Ill be honest I thought this was by far Laine's best game since game 1 of the Wild series. He was pretty dam good today, threw good checks got some great shots off almost scoring. That line just look off right now. Its like if they succeed its by themselves and not as a unit. I dont know whats going on.

Im no Laine "homer" either. He over handles the puck right now and when pressured gives it up too much, however today he was pretty dam good.

The game was lost because 4 idiots decided to go for a line change when the puck was still on our side of center, I will defend Conner to the death on that one. And "Tuba" making an absolutely stupid Buff pinch from 3 years ago at the red line without forward support.

Take those out this is a different game, 8 million posts were hit in this game and some weird bounces everywhere (did we forget to freeze the pucks?) that was even if you ask me, Helly needed to come up with a big save and didnt today. Its a combo of mental farts and not round 3 goal tending that sunk us today not Vegas who I thought got away with a metric ton of stick infractions today.

I dont usually predict scores but I do think we blow them out next game then win a 2 goal game in game 4.

I don’t think it was his best game thus far in the playoffs but it has definitely been his best non-scoring game. I think his lack of acceleration and agility gives opponents the opportunity to check his long stick pretty quickly and easily, tonight that wasn’t a big issue, it was not an issue before Laines injuries either, maybe and hopefully this is Laines pre-ankle injury/post self that can handle the puck well enough to set up his own shots and send Ehlers to the opponents blue-line flying. Anyways he looked like the best 5v5 forward(as Morrissey and Byfuglien where very good as well and probably better, so I’ll stick with Laine being the best forward) tonight, hopefully this is the Laine we have for the rest of the playoffs but while saying that I also hope Conn Scheife, Wheeler Dealer and Vezinabuyck show up as well.

Ummm....you might have missed the point.............the sarcasm you definitely missed.

I often do.

I think Little will need to be in Lowry's right wing. If Jets wants to have a 3rd line with some scoring.

Lowry Little shutdown line is good.
But the other bottom line needs to produce.

If both Lowry and Little centering each of those lines . It will be tough.

Putting Lowry and Little together and help shutdown Karlsson line will be better.

Copp and Perrault as another unit

I am surprised you haven't yet called for the Jets to scratch Laine and Ehlers to dress Appleton and Buddy Robinson yet

 

[Adam da bomb]

End of the day we are all over-reacting and either we will have turned it around or found much better excuses for why the Jets didn't. Like we used up all our mojo on Nashville, except much better reasons than that.

 

[tntkid]

Jets were not outplayed other than the 2nd half of the first period.

The bounces all went Vegas's way and I never expected to sweep these guys as they are a very good team.

Lots more hockey to be played in this " 7 game series" .

I'm down with Big Buddy Robinson in, he can take Wheelers spot!

Niku in for Enstrom!

Appleton in for Copp!

 

[razorsedge]

That 8 minute stretch the Knights dominated us in the first killed us. MAF played really good to.

Jets played decent, other than a few brain farts that cost us.

All in all I blame Stacy Natress for loss. Stupid anthem shenaigans. Sing the songs like you have been all season and go sit down.

 

[Lowered Expectations]

Dat sweet hobbit flavored cilantro kicked in after first 10 minutes and the whole team turned into one big turnover machine.

 

[snowkiddin]

While we’re at it, drop Morrissey and his lousy one point! Melchiori in!
