sucks to hear about vilardi. hopefully he rests up and is 100% for the POs. iafallo on the top line i saw, ehlers you spend all year with perfetti and namestnikov, here's appleton & lowry 
. but in all seriousness, i wouldn't mind seeing lambert get a look. that middle-6 really needs a boost offensively. lambert at least has some juice to his game. would separate him and ehlers so each of the middle-6 lines have elements of speed though.
if iafallo is top line, id be interested in something like;
nino-lowry-ehlers
perfetti-namestnikov-lambert
and then appleton on the 4th, with tanev and barron.

Well that is dissapointing. He was 10 away from a fully healthy year. Hopefully he's available for the playoffs.

Over all he was having a pretty good season apart from going ice cold the last little while. It's to bad I hoped he had gotten the injury bug out of the way. Injuries near the end of the season are death to a team having a great year especially if the injured players aren't available for the playoffs.
As has been talked about many a time winning ugly is better than losing pretty, you play to win the game doesn't matter what it looks like.
Don't worry Johnny. The Jets have the cup in the bag. Just look at the odds - they are number one.
If I were you I would start picking out your spot along Portage for the parade.
If it was indeed the slew foot that caused injury penalty or not he still gets injured. It's one of the most dangerous plays in hockey
The line changes make some sense, but the PP decisions are beyond baffling.
Perfetti should be on PP1 instead of AI and Lowry should be on PP2 instead of Appleton.
With the way Appleton has played this year, especially the last 2 months, how can he get promoted at both 5 on 5 and PP when Gabe goes down?
I think the blender is going to get a work out in the up coming games
It's about roles though. If they plan on leaving the scheme the same iafallo is a better fit to stand right in front of the net. But I'd think that if Gabe is gone for a long time then maybe they need to completely revamp the PP and find a spot for Cole on unit one. But hard to do with one day between games.
Appelton shouldn't be on pp 2 though. I'd put Lowry on it.
Apples on PP2, his play lately warrants pb duty not a promotion to the 2nd unit

Yeah.... Appleton is lucky to be on the team given the way he has been playing, and now he goes to the 2nd PP
In the last 30 games Apples has 2 goals on 42 shots.

Whiteout Is Coming.
Yup the difference in the game ... the refs with a 2 goal swing.
The ref does not call the interference on Demelo where the Sabres scored the first goal but then he calls a weak interference on Appleton that results in a Sabres PP goal.
Yes he called a BS interference penalty on the Sabres with 5 mins left ... maybe a make up call?
I assume based on your name you are Finnish and cannot read English very well. The Odds makers have Dallas and Florida as favorites.
The only thing I will pick out is my spot to cross it once renovations are completed.
The Minnesota Mild have as good a chance as the jets do of winning the cup.
What poster said the Jets suck? They had zero puck luck yesterday but also kinda played into Buffalo's game plan.I have never seen a poster say the Jets suck but i hope i'm wrong more.
A few years back.....??? How about 13 years ago?
History does repeat itself is al li am saying and this team is not playing anywhere near the same way it was playing on February 1st. I think you can admit that!!

Helle has been rather under average himself, lately. I'm personally in favour of Comrie getting some more starts even if he lays the occasional egg, versus the traditional Helle regression come playoff time possibly due to overwork/fatigue. I'm in favour of at least giving him a bit more rest down the stretch to give it a try that fatigue is why he's been sub-par in the playoffs and that more rest will give us a better chance.
No Vilardi and Pionk sucks , hopefully they are both back sooner than later .
Now that is silly talk. Sportsnet is the beeleafer nation.Also since that lost against the Jets ... Dallas has not won a game in regulation time. DeBoer even called out the team also Rantanen the biggest TDL splash only has 4 goals (one an empty net goal) in 20 games including the Canes.
The good news is SN gave the top story at 11 to the Jets and I also noticed on Saturday the Leafs losing to the Preds was not the top story.
Can it be true SN cares more about the Jets than the Leafs?
Dallas and the Jets have both been subpar since that game, which is good news for the Av's and Blues to a lesser extent . Both teams are 8-1-1 in last 10.
The Jets are lucky they had such a good start.
I truly hope this is not the collapse many of us feared.

The games are less important now than game 83. It's why you put the points in the bank, so you don't have to battle injured through the playoffs.
The Schenn and Tanev acquisitions have been good at least.

I would say coach is trying to help him get one in, so that more come after. Scoring in the NHL is very much a confidence thing. Appleton did a good job against Buffalo getting to scoring areas. The guy was a good scorer on the Moose, I think he's just missing confidence right now. I would have like to have seen Lowry on PP1, but you have an older model tank there, might be trying to keep some mileage on him.
@spiny norman what the hell man!!!
We need you to stop attending games in person!! Your mojo made us lose to Buffalo!!! Buffalo!!! (Just kidding!)
