I don't judge teams based on b2b games. Without rest you aren't all there. Having said that the jets were pretty good for the 1st and parts of the 2nd. The wheels came off because glycogen levels ran low. I have faith in the team I think they've earned it lol.
I think it had as lot to do with energy / stamina too - we looked good until the fuel ran low.
I don't think this Pred's team was by any means good - they just had more energy - and that's all it takes against a team with no legs.
At least I hope it was this -

Tough loss and tough break for Samberg, should be out week now with a broken foot!

Comrie good, rest of team not, piss poor effort and by the look of it conditioning on a back end of a back to back!

Gonna see what Tiny Heiny or Coghlan or Stan are made of!

people predicting jets can’t keep this up are probably right… That said there is no reason Jets have to be a legendary team. They can be merely very good team. I’m not going to waste time worrying about the future.

We've seen them overcome hurdles this season already, this road trip will be brutal and losing snerg sucks but losing the back half of a b2b against a desperate team doesn't really raise many red flags. They all looked tired. We know what this team looks like when firing on all cylinders.
Plus side, even with the loss, im a bit more confident in comrie after tonight TBH.
Too much panic in here rn

There's a lot of teams that have faced adversity with injuries early in the season. It was bound to happen sooner than later. I thought Samberg was easily one of the 3 best Jets defensemen to start the year, so that's going to hurt. I don't think this game gave Scott Arniel much confidence in Haydn Fleury to step up, he was fighting it a bit out there I thought.

Miller did well to step up, with Pionk on his offside, but this one could have some impact. The only other shutdown LD on the team is Morrissey so we'll see how that affects the lineup.

I thought the Jets started well enough but as the game wore on legs weren't there. Happens on back to backs. Lowry's line was the only real pushback line from the 2nd period on. Loved their goal.

I didn't like that headshot by Nyqvist in any way, and I was surprised there was no response from anyone, it was fairly obvious.

Kelly Sutherland didn't do the Jets any favours either, but let's not go there.

On to Minnesota. Next man up. Is that next man Salomonsson?
