2 out of 5 Schwarzenggers which I think is being generous.

Wheeezer is missing a brain! This tool was our Captain at one point! WTFH

Stopped watching the Jets because I wasn’t getting anything out of watching, then the W over the Coilers and it looks like they’re back on track and then F’N greedy Wheezer trying for a cheap EN goal ices the puck at the end of a long shift and costs them a point! F’n Wheezer!
Good to hear from you.

We're going to need to ride Hellebuyck down the stretch if we want a chance at this. Dave just isn't cutting it.
We need to win face offs. Going 0/6 on the powerplay is a structural issue, things aren't working.
We played well tonight but two bad plays cost us this game - Rittich fumbling the puck and Wheeler with a stupid icing. The rest was just usual Jet mistakes.
I mean it comes down to... why is Wheeler even out there - when 3/4 of our team are defensive grinders with speed

I hope Bowness has the balls to bench Scheifele - but I suspect Scheif has a direct line to Chipman...

This game had me on edge all throughout it. 1st star should be Reimer, he kept the Sharks in the game when the Jets outplayed them. 1-1 though for a good portion of the game and Rittich looking shaky I was very concerned the Jets were going to lose this game on one shot.

Instead the PP comes through, two guys who needed something good to happen to them connecting.

Next shifts are fine. Then Scheifele's line gives up the defensive zone faceoff.

I really didn't like coach's choice to close out the game. Wheeler is struggling for speed and Dubois is struggling, why not go out with the exact same checking line that put the puck in deep on the previous shift and generated a scoring chance, with Barron and Appleton. Those guys are hard to score against. I don't like the veteran bias there, one bit. To me they cost the team this game...

PK was solid tonight. Morgan Barron's hustle is great to watch. The way he torched Karlsson, should have scored. PP1 I like the movement and the personnel, shot selection, and moreover wasting pucks on 5-4's with a broken stick, not as much. You need to overload the front of the net in those situations, especially when d-men are without a stick.

Should have won, could have, would have, but in the end it's only one point in an otherwise rather structurally sound defensive game.

So many selfish players on this team. They have no chance of making any kind of run. Still the same old team. Blow it up, start something new from the top down.
Sick and tired of watching this shit year after year.

PP1 with 8-9mins TOI while PP2 had 3-4mins, Ehlers with the fewest among PP2 and Lowry with the most :laugh:

0/6 and nothing changed all game. The coaches have helped develop that selfishness.

As poignant as always! Welcome back Cotter.

Yeah his game has really fallen off. Barely noticeable out there.

He's looking exactly like he did down the stretch his first year for us. I get he's hurt but go to the net instead of sitting around the perimeter. Also why is he trying to be a playmaker on the pp, he doesn't have the vision nor the hands really to open those passes up. He needs to be playing exactly like El Nino is for us.

blame scheifele on a game that shouldn't have even reached overtime because he extended his shift a bit on a f***ing gimmick, when he was one of our better players tonight.

If the Stars can come back and win and if Vancouver beat the Preds this loss will be soften, but this team has a lot of warts that show themselves at the worst of times

Hellebyuck needs to rest as he played over a day ago and is tuckered out. Bowness needs to stick to his goalie rotation schedule no matter what unless he pencils in Rittich even more because points are not important at this point in the year at all. Resting is.
