Quick thoughts (Heritage Classic edition)...
ESW - Ehlers had some good jump early and tilted the ice. Scheifele was fine, but not that noticeable. Ice conditions like this impeded his style, which relies on a lot of close puck control. Wheeler was just okay. I think his effectiveness on the PP is questionable at this point. Roslovic would be better in that spot because he's quicker to retrieve pucks and a better shooter.
CLL - Laine had a really good game considering the conditions. He was aggressive and had some good puck control. Little was okay through the game, though it was hard to get a read on his defensive play watching through the lens of the upper deck cameras. Connor wasn't that strong during regulation but that OT rush was scintillating.
CLR - My goodness. This line pummelled the Flames all game. Roslovic was outstanding - best Jets forward all game. He really adds punch to the line. Copp was his usual beastly self, and Lowry was strong. Love this line.
PGB - Perreault had a ton of jump. Too bad he's playing with Bourque and a rookie. Gus wasn't up to the pace. Bourque was wasting space. He does absolutely nothing on the PK.
44-3 Best game from Morrissey this season. Smart, fast and aggressive. I'm really appreciating Poolman's progress. He had a strong game.
7-4 Kulikov is playing much more aggressively this season, and for the most part that's been good. However, he's making too many mistakes with the puck and has tunnel vision in the offensive zone. Pionk was good again. He has a lot of talent and he played a smart game.
23-2 Dahlstrom was okay. Bitetto wasn't very good, but this pair was simple enough to get the job done most of the night.
Hellebuyck was really solid, which is all the Jets needed.
