Ovechkin needs 8 to break Gretzky’s record which of course he’ll do tonight. So I’ll say it’s 9-8 Jets with Ovi getting all 8 Caps goals.

If it was 3 goals or less he'd be guaranteed to break it, thank god it's an unrealistic number

 

[johnnyonthspot]

I know it's petty and mean but I kind of want Ovi to come up one goal short and then have some non life threatening/altering incident that forces him to retire.

I guess Putin could crown him King of Russia?

Appleton just has the least upside of all of our players. Because of the pairing with Lowry he gets way too much ice time.
That's the problem.
Barron, Kupari, Gus are all still improving Appleton is what he is which is a defensive player.
If all our guys were healthy I would have a hard time dressing Mason.
Tanev seems to bring a lot more to the line with Lowry.
Iafallo is useful in many roles.
Appleton forechecks ok and overall does his job but moving him up the lineup is not a good choice.
Perfetti is hot as hell and we are essentially demoting him.

My big hope is that Nino can score some goals now that the monkey is off his back.
He was a big producer in Oct/Nov we need that guy.

I hope this top 9 approach works.
Even if I was going to go in this direction I would use essentially ANYONE else in the bottom 6 instead of Appleton.

If we fall behind I think they should try Cole with Scheif and Connor.
It may not be a good long term fit but I could see them doing some damage.

My guess is Arniel hopes that Fly can jump start Lowry and Appelton and that Cole can continue get Nino going.

We are going to need line three to be clicking and he's left them together long enough to figure it out themselves. I don't think it's a bad thing using the players who are hot to try to get those who are not going.

King of the Gulf of America

I love that Wayne is living rent-free in so many people's heads

Cry harder, folks

Finally the Jets play a team above them in the overall standings, missing a couple of players makes it tougher but if the Jets can get some production from all 4 lines and Helle plays like he can a win is not out of the question.

Helly is really the key to everything

Or maybe Arniel has a plan ... he doesn't want to show his playoff lineups since teams are starting to scout at the end of the season for the playoffs.

Famous last words.

Last chance to get your guesses into the Prediction Contest...

I don't believe that for a second.

 

[abax44]

Were there any roster moves with Vilardi out? I know Kupari and Gus are available, but wasn't sure if they called anyone up just because... or maybe they wait until they're heading out of town?

[kanadalainen]

Ehhh f*** em both. Wayne especially.

I wonder if someone has scraped the shyte off his statue yet?

 

[SUX2BU]

I couldn’t find anything on that either

 

[bustamente]

Must of been my old eyes playing tricks on me, but it sure seemed like the page refreshed by itself.

 

[Fatdrunk]

Nope , not every game. I freaking picked them to win last game!!

Isn't there a leaf game tonight.....?

 

[Fatdrunk]

I guess Putin could crown him King of Russia?

Wouldn't that be a Czar?

 

[B33R LEAGUE]

No Gabe tonight?

Uhoh.. I think I brought us some bad Juju with this one..

Hopefully the Hockey Gods saw my latest update and all will be forgiven and the balance of karma restored.

 

[johnnyonthspot]

Wouldn't that be a Czar?

Perhaps! or Grand Prince or perhaps First Deputy Director of the KGB.
Let's just hope he is appointed before he breaks the record tonight! hahah.

I understand that Taylor Made has downloaded the intrinsic neuromuscular skills of Rory M. into each of their new drivers (quite exciting), but that the chip interface implant into the C5 section of the spine is an additional $40k and three days in the surgical ward?

I like golf, but thats just nuts.

 

[The Blue Baron]

Who else is bloody hell sick of seeing Ovaltine high lights?

Feck enough already. Lick his privates while yer at it!

 

[bustamente]

Looks like a lot of red in the arena tonight

Or, we could just shake our privates at Wash pig-dogs.

Scheifele hasn't scored a goal in 8 games, his longest goal less streak of the season. Last goal came against Philly in that 4-1 win.
