Post-Game Talk: "Little" Afternoon Delight - Jets win 4-1

[LucianoBorsato]

That post game shot of Perry sitting on the bench boards dejected and alone was awesome. Best part of the game for me

 

[Jets2point0]

Remember the days when we didnt know if the Jerts would show up to compete? Feels good man

 

[jets2020champs]

We can't start worrying about that. If we keep winning somewhere near where we have will be battling easily in the top 3. There will be plenty of time for scoreboard watching.

But who do we want to win tonight? St. Louis or Nashville?

 

[LowLefty]

Nice to see the Little line getting it done - all 3 working a lot harder tonight.

Good job on D all night long (other than Troubla - what is going on there???) - guys did a great job along the boards in their own end. Couple of turnovers but we're not perfect. The butt end is going to cost a game or two.

PK looks good - keeping most of it to the outside and blocking most of what was coming from the point.

Coach is getting it done - team is tightening up nice defensively and neutral zone play is solid. Our forwards are patient and working hard - lot of that comes from coaching - gotta give it to him.

Best of all, I can't call out any of the 4 lines - we are now rolling 4 and lookin good!

Good goaltending and good PP go a long ways!

Nice to see the second line come through finally.

Wheeler and Schief a little cool right now.

Why is Hendricks playing
Every game? Need to rotate a few guys in his spot, Hendricks goes one length of the ice and he’s gassed, Armia and Perreault always playing short handed!

Doesn't matter to me as long as it is not a 3 point game

 

[Tom ServoMST3K]

I don't think I'm emotionally ready for the Jets to be a top 3 NHL team.

 

[Saintb]

Buff doesn't have a goal and he may be having the best year of his career.

Faceoffs

 

[Do or Die]

When you can win on the road, without the #1 line doing much.......you are getting there.

 

[KingBogo]

But who do we want to win tonight? St. Louis or Nashville?

We want a 2 point game. In all honesty I think Nashville ultimately finds itself in 1st and we will be battling with STL for 2nd.

I just hope that when it happens, we handle it with more tact and grace than other fanbases. >_>

Player post-game audio: Little, Hellebuyck and Ehlers.

Coach Maurice post-game scrum topics: On how the Jets started the game. Did he like the speed from his team tonight? On the contributions of the second line. On having patience with the Ehlers/Little/Laine line. On the team maturity for not having a letdown after the disallowed goal. On playing with the lead. Thoughts on Hellebuyck's play. Starter tomorrow against the Sharks. Redemption games for Hellebuyck after giving up five the previous game. Having success early in the season in tough buildings.

A Friday afternoon game, against a california team, and the Jets actually win?

And actually play good as well?

 

[Board Bard]

Maurice says Mason in tomorrow.

 

[Adam da bomb]

The player who really needs to get it going tho is Trouba.

 

[PhilJets]

Buff doesn't have a goal and he may be having the best year of his career.

Turning into a shutdown guy

He will be awesome at it..it be great for the Jets. Jets will need a player of that type in the playoffs if they will make a serious noise.

To man handle other teams top lines and not worry about scoring. That burden is not on him anymore.

If Jets wins a cup he gets to lift it up 2nd after Wheeler....

 

[bustamente]

4-2 golden knights in the 2nd and our next opponent have pulled their goalie.

All you can do is laugh at the situation. The second we see at least a little bit of promise that the second line is getting it together, it is the first line that is "struggling" for the third game straight. This has to be some kind of joke.

Just to be clear, this game only reinforced my beliefs about switching up the top-6, but it was nice to see a sharper ELL after 35 games. Good on them.

Plus blocked shots and over all work on the PK - are we winning in spite of his play? Not IMO

 

[LucianoBorsato]

I think thats a better scenario, I would not look forward to playing Nashville in tbe first round.

That D core could just go beast mode and win a series.

Trouba is now goat

Jets haven’t had to chase the game much this year. So Byfuglien hasn’t felt the need to rush the puck on all chances. He’s picking his chances now. I like that he’s been throwing some hits to get the team going.
