GDT: Preseason Game 01 - Winnipeg Jets @ Edmonton Oilers - Sunday, September 24th, 2023 - 5:00pm CDT - WinnipegJets.com - CJOB/Power 97

[None]

Jets top PK unit beaten by the Oilers what, 2/5 of their 1st PP unit?

 

[DeepFrickinValue]

Edmonton goal announcer sounds almost as dumb as Winnipegs.

 

[None]

Weak giveaway by Chibrikov off his backhand.

Weak giveaway by Chibrikov off his backhand.

He'll learn what he can get away with in the NHL. You can't be doing weak backhand passes through the middle of the ice in your own end.

 

[Atoyot]

Bad giveaway by Chibrikov.

Yeah, I didn’t get the Delia signing either

 

[Jetabre]

Yeah, I didn’t get the Delia signing either

I honestly forgot we signed him until I saw him in the lineup for today

 

[Atoyot]

Chibrikov nearly decaffeinated there.

 

[None]

Yeah, I didn’t get the Delia signing either

Given the 1 way contract I'm guessing there was some questions of Brossoit's health or they just didn't anticipate they'd have cap space for Brossoit

Pretty solid period overall considering the lineup.

 

[surixon]

Well lots of rust so far.

 

[Jetabre]

Some good, some bad, let's see what the 2nd period has for us.

I think there’s a strong chance Delia is our long-term Hellebuyck replacement but I don’t know what he was doing on that goal

Well lots of rust so far.

Agreed, the Oilers aren’t looking too good with the many regulars they’re playing against a bunch of never beens on our team

 

[CorgisPer60]

I really liked the flow of that period. Gaffes were kept relatively minor, and no one's game really stood out to me as poor. Heinola is being quietly good at getting the puck out of his end, and Chisholm's been juicing as well. Really liking Chibrikov/Zhilkin/Lambert, Iafallo doesn't look out of place on Lowry's wing, and Nino is working as advertised. Delia's been decidedly mid, as has Bauer. I thought it interesting that Bowness put D partners of comparable skill sets together, but I guess it's a mentoring role.

 

[None]

Well lots of rust so far.

Not as much as I was expecting at least from the players that are likely locks for the roster or at least on the cusp.

Lowry's line looked pretty good considering Iafallo is a new addition, Perfetti didn't look out of place at C, Niederreiter had some chances and was physical, Demelo and Dillon both look solid.
Chisholm stood out in a positive way of the players on the cusp.

Jets have had solid goaltending backups the last few years.

Flaherty must be part of the picking. They are doing something right with the goalies.

 

[Jet]

Chibrikov nearly decaffeinated there.

Hey, did you have a different username before?

I think there’s a strong chance Delia is our long-term Hellebuyck replacement but I don’t know what he was doing on that goal

I thought he looked pretty good outside of that misplay on the goal. I think it was deflected.

Odds on this pbp guy figuring out that Chibi is 90 and Zhilkin is 56?

 

[Atoyot]

Yeah, I didn’t get the Delia signing either

I think he was considered insurance in case Hellebuyck was moved. Even without moving him Brossoit isn't super durable and he's currently the only Moose goalie that can be called up.

 

[KingBogo]

That was a solid period. Liked how Chisholm looked. Despite a few mistakes at some point Chibrikov is going to jump off the page and be an important player for us.

Agreed. It gives us a goalie with at least some NHL experience in the system, with quite a few unknowns.

That line looked good. They definitely drive the play forward… once they get out of their own end.

 

[BoneDocUK]

Nice games so far from 7/8 D candidates and Moosebound Heinola and Chisel, Perfetti, DeMelo, Iafallo and 3rd and 4th lines generally.

Needles playing like the pro he is, Chibrikov making plays good and bad and some fine passes from Ville. Zhilkin looking like he might evolve into Nino 2.0.

I have a soft spot for DomTon. Maybe be a lifer AHL/ NHL tweener, but has skill and never takes a shift off, excellent mentor also.

Perfetti speedier as advertised, not much to play with setup-wise but honestly just wanted to see him play both sides of the ice.

EDM look crap, but not much to play for.

Agreed, we won't really get a good idea on Perfetti at center until he has 2 legit top 6 wingers to play with.

Yeah Cole hanging back a bit, probably wants to get his defensive reads down first. He also showed a bit of rust at times which isn't surprising given his layoff. I expect he'll become more involved as the game and preseason goes on.

Thought both Chisholm and Heinola had good periods.

 

[BoneDocUK]

Also looks like a higher-speed, higher-pressure scheme from the Jets, with some good exits and movement generally from the D.

I keep hearing that Schmidt is quicker, but he looks a step off to me.

Stanley and Capo or going to have to hold Chisholm off with both hands if he can keep this up through preseason while keeping the errors down -- tho Stan will get every chance.

To correct myself we do have another goalie we can call up, I forgot about Salminen.

 

[snowkiddin]

The Oilers are the Browns of the NHL if they hadn’t lucked into McDavid, change my mind.

Edit - NHL not CFL, too much happening for me to think straight haha
