Kuli is usually getting roasted for bone head plays - I agree 100% - he played one smart game today, especially in his own end.

Jets win and this is all you have to post lol. Your last 5 posts are all bashing Ehlers.
I’m just glad Ehlers is finally good at hockey. It was touch and go there for a minute.

Can't pick on Hellebuyck anymore I guess.

Did he ever. Here's a guy I desperately want to see get rewarded more.
________________________________________________
Your sort of on the right track -- but it is Laine that I would trade, for a Buff, or Trouba style defenseman. Laine is a bit of a soft player, with poor skating skills, but he doeas have a great shot, and we could get a real good player back for him -- maybe 2, as he's overrated.
Agreed completely. The plus with Connor is that he's at least still getting himself into scoring positions and getting chances, so his instincts are still okay. Definitely need to find a way to get him confident though, he seems to be thinking a little bit too much when he's got a chance.
Also props to the coaching staff and leadership in the team for making this lineup work. I know we all have our issues with the coaching staff at times but the guys showed up today, and leadership/coaching deserves some praise for that.
Assuming we make it out of the series and injuries aren’t a factor, I’d restructure our lineup like this:
Harkins-Scheifele-Laine
Connor-Wheeler-Roslovic
Copp-Eakin-Ehlers
Perreault-Lowry-Appleton
Harkins and Copp could switch depending on how the top line is going. Feel like it’s spread much more akin to how Pens or Blackhawks would approach playoffs with offensive weapons on each, but not overloading a single line.

Healthy Kukikov is a decent D. Has always been. Sadly he seems to be so often having a nagging injury.

This is just typical Connor. Has happened many times in the last couple of years. So close but just can’t get that last little bit and then goes on a streak. His stick was in good position against the breakouts and on the forecheck. That’s good hockey and something to build on.
Nah, we borrowed the name from California (Ryan, Fowler), who borrowed it from Carolina (Aho), who borrowed it from Minnesota (Koivu, Dumba), who borrowed it from Chicago (Havlat)...
The other one they do a lot is the three on one scrum with gloves punches.
Cheap dirt bags the lot of them.Hey man, didn't you see how much Johnny grimaced on the bench? He had an owwiee.

I'm telling you boys and girls I don't want to lose Adam Lowry. Or have to play against him. He's a pivotal piece in this team, started from year 1.
We got Calgary to boil over the edge, and Ehlers finally got the monkey off his back. That's a playoff goal, right in the trenches. Awfully proud of the team effort.

Let me know once you find another Buff, and one that a team is willing to trade...

Woo!!! The recipe strategy worked out perfectly.
As per request from SUX2BU, here is a beef dish from Bourdain's "Appetites: A Cookbook".
Meat Loaf with Mushroom Gravy
What you'll need:
- 2 1/2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 large yellow or white onion, peeled and very finely chopped
- 3 ribs celery, very finely chopped
- 2 sprigs fresh marjoram, leaves only, very finely chopped
- 3 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves only, very finely chopped
- sale and finely ground black pepper to taste
- 2 pounds ground beef chuck
- 1 1/3 pounds ground veal
- 3 eggs lightly beaten
- 1 cup panko bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup tomato paste
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 pound cremini mushrooms, diced
- 2 large or 3 to 4 shallots, peeled and finely chopped (about 1/2 cup)
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 1/4 cups veal stock
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- *instant-read thermometer*equipment
What to do:
In a large, heavy-bottom saute pan, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium heat and add the onion, celery, marjoram, and thyme. Season with salt and pepper and cook over medium-low heat, stirring regularly with a wooden spoon, until the vegetables are soft and translucent but not browned. Remove from the heat and transfer to a large mixing bowl to cool.
Pre-heat the oven to 350 F.
Once the vegetable mixture is cool, add the beef, veal, eggs, bread crumbs, and about 2 tablespoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and mix well with scrupulously clean or rubber-gloved hands. Use the remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil to grease a loaf pan and transfer the mixture to the pan, packing it down gently. Cover the loaf with foil and place the loaf pan on a sheet pan. Cook in the oven for 1 hour.
Remove the foil and spread the top of the meat loaf with the tomato paste. Continue to cook for another 30 to 45 minutes, until the instant-read thermometer inserted into the centre reaches 150 F. Remove from the oven and let the meat loaf rest, in the loaf pan, on a wire rack.
While it rests, make the gravy. In a large, heavy-bottom saute pan, heat the butter until it foams and subsides. Add the diced mushrooms and cook over high heat, stirring occasionally, until their released juices evaporate and the mushrooms begin to squeak against the surface of the pan when stirred. Add the shallots and salt and pepper to taste and continue to cook until the mushrooms get browned and the shallots are translucent or slightly golden, 3 to 5 minuets. Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and stir well to evenly coat. Cook over medium heat, stirring more or less constantly, for about 2 minutes, to cook off the raw flour taste, then stir in the stock. Whisk the mixture to pull the stuck flour up from the surface of the pan and into the gravy. Add a splash more stock or water if necessary if the mixture seems to thick, then reduce the heat to low and stir in the cream. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
Serve the meat loaf in slices, with the gravy ladled over or alongside. Accompany with mashed potatoes if you like.
Serves 6 to 12
What a game, so happy for Ehlers for that winner. Apparently the boys get "home ice" for next game, which happens to be tomorrow? Classic Western Conference travel I guess ...
Go Jets Go!!!

This is the same poster who would repeatedly tell us that Helle wasn’t an NHL goalie. And then that his 2017-18 season was a fluke and that he actually still sucked.
He’s objective, alright. Objectively wrong about everything.

Jets full marks for their win tonight. Kept the Flames out of the slot all night
Great games by Harkins, Lowry, Roslovic, Morrissey, DeMelo.
Conner started getting into it and Ehlers went from goat to hero.
Anyone still want to call this team soft?
Great gritty effort.
The team showed a lot of grit, heart and soul tonight. Really stepped up. Almost no softness at all, Roslo was one of the only ones for example.
I would like to thank whoever called out the Jets for how soft they were in game 1. Clearly they read the comments, took it to heart and really reacted strongly today!

I’m not fat. I’m cultivating mass.
A couple years ago i would have said Jansen Harkins was going to be a career AHL'er. Not anymore.
