Positivity Thread II - Now with more Cations

Well well look who's got 3 players in top 30 goal scoring all of a sudden.

Jets are in a playoff spot on American Thanksgiving. This is positive.

Laine has his mojo back and is moving up the goal scoring list, now tied for 8th overall

Agreed. Bad periods and games happen. Bottom line is we're 7th overall with 1 or 2 games in hand...

Happy US Turkey Day to us!

 

[Jetfaninflorida]

Bad loss last night. But those kind of games will happen. It is Thanksgiving in Florida and the Jets are in a playoff spot. So we have about an 80% chance of making the playoffs. That's pretty good.

 

[kanadalainen]

Laine's heating up.

 

[Saidin]

Dano (who's on waivers again) > Petan.

 

[ERYX]

I'd say its a definite positive that we're 7th overall despite not playing our best hockey and Hellebuyck being shaky. If Helle returns to 17/18 form look out.

Also, we have games in hand while holding onto this position. Beats the pants off of barely clinging to the last wildcard spot while the teams below us have games in hand and we're biting our nails about whether we'll be able to hang on and sneak into the playoffs.

And points % we are 5th.

Laine = Awesome

Our second line is freaking amazing

Four Jets in top 50 scoring

 

[Dayofthedogs]

I pretty much gave up posting on this forum after last year. Realized a large segment of posters simply don't ever want to have a positive take.

The Jets are pulling off a 6 points in 5 record while firing on about 3 of 6 cylinders. Connor has become a stand alone driver of play. Laine is heating up something magical. Ehlers is playing better now that he's been with chef and wheels. Buff/Trouba/JoMo have all been good. PP and PK have been excellent and good respectively. Backup goalie has done his job. Helle is getting there minus the hiccups. We probably have the youngest most skilled 4th line I can think of, Petan has been excellent, Roslo coming along nicely, Lemieux when not busy shoving his head up his own ass has shown flashes.

It also appears the Jets have found some late round gems who are doing some really nice things with the moose. Appleton, Suess and Griffith are coming along nicely. Berdin as well.

Apparently PoMo's rope and dope routine through the first quarter of the season is still in effect and working beautifully.

Great game against a crap team with an even worse keeper. Fun as hell to watch!

 

[EpicGingy]

Not necessarily a positive per se, but it's a little amusing to look at the goal stats for Winnipeg.

Laine has almost twice as many goals as Scheifele and Connor who in turn have twice as many goals as the next leading scorer (Ehlers).

Laine was third a week ago

Despite what we would all agree is an inconsistent start to the season the Jets rank in the top 10 in the following:

8th - Points% at .636% (104 point pace)
7th - GF/GP at 3.36
9th - GA/GP at 2.77
T-1st - PP% at 30.4%
10th - PK% at 81.6%

When we get on track we will be a very dangerous team.

I mean, we've hit the 6 in 5 mark for every segment so far. Two 6 point segments and two 7 point segments. I'd say the results are the opposite of inconsistent.

We're over a quarter into the season. If we stay on that pace, we'd be over 100 points.

Glad you didn't give up posting on this site. It's always nice to read some positive posts so make sure to continue sharing your point of view.

Jets fans are very passionate about the team which is why comments sometimes come across as negative, particularly after a loss. I think many are simply just frustrated because it seems like the Jets have been underperforming to a certain extent so far this year.

We all remain Jets fans whether they win or lose. We're just hoping they'll start playing up to their potential more consistently. Perhaps last night's game against St. Louis is a sign of good things to come. It sure was fun to watch Laine score 5 goals. Looking forward to seeing him become the superstar that we believed he was when the Jets were lucky enough to draft him.

I think they have been inconsistent/uneven in performance not results. That is why I like the 6 in 5 concept so much, it flattens out the highs and lows.

Laine with 100 goals.
101

Nashville is 4-5-1 in the last 10 games and the Jets are 6-3-1 in the last 10 games despite the fact the sky is falling on our Board.

 

[MrBoJangelz71]

So, after 24 games played this season, we currently are 3 points off of the pace we had last season through 24 games played, yet it seems we are of the mind set this season is well off of last seasons production.

Here is something many probably forgot about last year, we had a stretch of 6 games in December last year where we lost 5 of 6 games and looked like we were headed in a tank.

It was not until January where we really started putting together full 60 min of effort and started imposing our will on other teams.

When is Laviolette being replaced? Clearly can't manage that roster.
