Pre-Game Talk: Pre-game vs Jets

[schwang26]

Dvorak and Matheson should be scratched.

Yes but scratching them lowered their value. Jokes aside, I think Matheson can still get something of value

Everyone struggle alongside Matheson.
Guhle/Hutson/Struble/Barron name it. The sooner they get ride of him the better

Habs need better veterans

I looked at Jets roster and it's hard to call their roster more talented than Habs'. Save for their goalie. What is that they did in last 2 years to turn it around without going through the rebuild?

Added scorers in Vilardi & Perfetti. Got rid of Wheeler who created a toxic atmosphere then made hard worker, tough guy Lowry captain. Also saw internal improvements from Morrissey & Samberg on D. Shit-filet had bit of an attitude readjustment with new coach, new captain.

Still have strong goaltending, too. At least in regular season. We'll see what happens in playoffs.

A juicy story about Laine when he was with the Jets, as recounted in the Jeff Marek & Greg Wyshynski podcast, here from the 44:02 mark:



Apparently, Laine went through a lot of big screen TVs whenever he was on the road.

If Pezz sits tomorrow night it’s a complete joke. I’m not saying Pezz is a great player, better than whoever they sit, or will make one difference in the game. He is a bit player at best.

However, he works his ass off and will go thru a wall for this team. After a 9-2 loss where many decided to quit and mail it in, if he is not in the lineup it shows MSL holds no one accountable except Pezz and Wifi.

The Jets had only one player under 6 ft (Cole Perfetti) until they called up Chibrikov (who has two goals and an assist in two games). The Habs have 5 players under 6 ft in the lineup although that includes their top three scorers.
