Ughhh. Society is doomed.

 

[Aavco Cup]

So, if the Jets appealed Trouba's suspension, he would be able to play tonight, right?
and we get a week off after this game.
And Toby could possibly, although not likely, be back immediately after the bye? (2-3 weeks as of Feb 17 surgery was my understanding, correct me if I'm wrong)

....

Maybe this defensive tire fire could be somewhat mitigated?

Incorrect. The Jets can't appeal. Only Trouba can. But he would still sit out while the appeal is heard (remember Wideman last year) Because of the Jets break it's possible he could have it reduced in time for him to be back against the Wild if he appealed.

If it was reduced to zero he would just get his pay back

Just retire already Bob. You're not funny and your article yesterday was garbage

was really hoping to see Strait tonight.

Just go to the MTS Centre. I'm pretty sure he's in the lineup

 

[Trilliann]

Ugh. What does Postma have to do to get justly rewarded. Melchiori on the top pairing is Barf worthy. Playing one of CHariot/Morrissey out of position on the 2nd pairing is also less than ideal.

I think it looks more like he wanted one decent d-man on each pairing..

 

[cheswick]

Too stupid to be funny. TSN shows pretty much all the Leaf's games out here in Calgary, but of course when the Jets play them it's only on TSN3 and locally blacked out again. It's almost like TSN and the NHL don't want to promote Winnipeg as a "real" NHL member. Hell, we get more friggin' games with the Islanders or Hurricanes than we do the Jets.
[Frustrated]

TSN doesn't have national rights to broadcast games. They can't show Leafs games in Calgary...

 

[Lempo]

Ughhh. Society is doomed.

As far as unhealthy interest towards Laine goes...

... people and glass houses.

 

[Trilliann]

That scene in the Winnipeg dressing room around Laine is pretty insane

yeah, it is. And it's probably even worse for Matthews

 

[Whileee]

I think it looks more like he wanted one decent d-man on each pairing..

But he'll surely be mixing and matching, because there's no chance that Melchiori can play as many minutes as Buff.

There's been so much angst about the Jets' 10th D...

 

[Trilliann]

But he'll surely be mixing and matching, because there's no chance that Melchiori can play as many minutes as Buff.

yeeaaa.. i got nothing
Maybe the logic is that if anyone can carry him it's Buff.. ?

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

And this is why Chevy needed to be proactive in fixing our defensive issues. Bring in someone like Gelinas for free. A pretty good defenseman (Stone) was acquired yesterday for almost nothing.

Even with injuries, there's really no excuse to be filling out a lineup card that features Stuart, Chiarot and Melchiori. It's not like they're young guys that we need to have a look at.

Barberio for actually nothing. No, needs more

 

[Aavco Cup]

yeah, it is. And it's probably even worse for Matthews

I think maybe in training camp, but they have access to Matthews all the time.

RR had a guest on who said that's the biggest scrum for a rookie he's ever seen, including Crosby and Ovi

 

[yukonfloyd*]

Feel like Maurice's plan is to 'juggle' his D pairings all night... yeah. that should work.

wow, and I was told no one in Tronno even cares where Winnipeg is

 

[Hank Chinaski]

Didn't mention Barberio because the Avs had waiver priority over us, so it's possible Chevy put in a claim.

That said, I'm sure Bergevin would've put out courtesy calls prior to waiving him. Jets could've just given the Habs their 7th round pick back.

The rules are different in hockey than baseball (I don't know other sports' rules)

In hockey you still sit during your appeal.

 

[Hank Chinaski]

Exactly. My guess is that we'll see a handful of shifts with Morrissey and Buff paired together.

 

[yukonfloyd*]

Stu/Buff will be our main PK unit... be prepared for that

 

[ffh]

Stu/Buff will be our main PK unit... be prepared for that

Maybe he should put out trouba and enstom

 

[Neuf]

If Winnipeg had Laine first over all, or any other team had drafted Matthews FOA, I wonder if Laine would be as popular in the media...

 

[Whileee]

Feel like Maurice's plan is to 'juggle' his D pairings all night... yeah. that should work.

Right, he should stick with the pairings that have practiced a bunch together instead.
