Thought the Jets looked WAY more structured and more like a patient, quick strike team. Calgary just looked like they wanted the preseason to be over.

This sums up Calgary's level of "class"...
Looking forward to the regular season now. Go Jets!

Glad it's over. Hopefully Dubois's injury is largely a precaution.

Team looked a lot last last year to me...sloppy at times, no depth, skilled enough at the top to overcome it. We will see, I guess.
Shot count was deceiving that game, Jets mostly limited the Flames to low quality chances. Depth became a massive issue after Dubois exited, offense immediately extinguished.

I thought Heinola had a quiet game(in a good way). Seemed much more comfortable. Nice to see.
I still think we need another 2nd line forward.. depth concerns me and one injury to a Ehlers/Connor could derail things pretty quickly.

That's twice in 2 games the Flames hit Perfetti from behind.

Decent game. I think Heinola has won the opening night spot with that game. He was uneventful and boring which is probably exactly what the coaching staff wanted against a full NHL lineup.
Top line flying.
Botton-6 is the main concern with this team... nothing seems to happen with them on the ice. Gagner will help but hoping for a waiver claim to bring something there.

I still feel like last year the lack of depth was a product of our coaching. We had the depth last year, it just wasn't utilized effectively.
Now we're a year in the future minus Copp and Stastny and hoping our more aggressive defenseman in all 3 zones can help make up for some of our forward depth deficiencies. It'll be nigh impossible to make up for injuries in the top 6 though so hopefully Dubois is okay.

There was also a lot of hometown tracking going on in this game. Some Jets shots weren't counted. The Flames broadcast said that Shane's Furniture or whatever was offering some prize for every save Markstrom made. Maybe Shane paid of the trackers to undercount shots against Markstrom.
Main difference was the opposing team could not get shots from the front of the net. Whereas last season it was open season in the ~10-12 feet region in front of the Jets net.

Encouraging stuff, let's see if it holds up in the regular season.

coach was probably doing him a favor - it was getting chippy out there for a preseason - no point in getting mugged by a flame goon who thinks they're playing game 7

Win or lose this is going to be a way more exciting team to watch every night.
