They want him to get some nastiness and grit it sounds like

Personally prefer Fleury his skating is excellent/ better than Stanley’s but there’s something in Stanley’s game they’re trying to get that Fleury doesn’t have
The 17th overall pick they spent to draft him which included giving up the 23 and 36th overall picks to trade for him. :sarcasm:

I wouldn’t mind driving down to see this game. 2 hours from Vancouver or so.

March 16 jets play again in Seattle if anyone is interested in going? Look like cheap tickets down yonder.

I don't know how I'm going to manage to watch this game. It ends at nearly 2:00 in the morning for me, I have to have the kids up at 7:00 make them breakfast and lunch and get them to school by 8:00.
Breakfast: Donuts + Red Bull = 15 seconds of prep time.

Lunch: (Number of kids) x (can of ravioli) + (1 can opener + 1 Caramilk bar) = 30 seconds of prep time.

The Caramilk is there to teach them how to win board battles, seeing as how they'll be in an educational setting.

More Stanley, eh? Trade him to Seattle, they can call him Space Needle (although the Space Needle does revolve more quickly, so maybe not apt).

Hmmhmm...

Ahoy! - he's not talking chocolate chip cookies in your piehole
Grab a mic like a hockey stick and put the biscuit through your 5hole
The kind of guy to check a rookie with his head down
Hitting the bookies is your best bet while we're visiting your town
No need to frown... or drown in debt!
We have captain Adam on deck
Even though we rep a Jet, our ships sail is set
Catch a Kraken in a net... and maybe put a few pucks in em
If there's games of hockey to be played, the team from Winnipeg is winning them
Speaking of captains, I'll pass on the Morgan barkeep!
Instead, give me a shot of Appleton through the goaltenders crease... neat
Now cease and desist with all that darn pollution!
The villain pledges a solution:
Quit goofin, time to clean up your act on the ice Seattle!
Or you'll need some for your jaw after we clock you like Mongo in Blazing Saddles
Now excuse me while I whip this out!
Then skedaddle off to that weird barn in Alberta
Blow a kiss at a cowgirl and promise not to hurt her
Just make sure you tell her where to find the best team in the league.
That'd be?
Why, in Manitoba!

I'm hoping the 4th line can get a point or two tonight. Would love to see Iafallo and/or Barron get a goal.
It's hard to be disappointed in the team but Barron needs to pitch in and soon or he might find himself rotated out of the lineup. A I seems to have his role cemented with the team but a goal or two would be nice. I'll add Vilardi he came close in St. Louis, he is past overdue to score and when he does I hope he goes on a streak.

Hopefully showcasing him for a potential trade.

Fleury is big. Not Stan big, but big. And unlike Stanley, he is mobile. It was only 4 games but I think he is clearly better than Stanley - and I am not knocking Stanley here. He has improved to the point where he is an adequate 3LD. At least against opponents who are not too fast. But the faster opponents just blow by him.

We still need to see Heinola. He hasn't played a game in the NHL in going on 2 years. If he can handle it we can platoon him and Fleury.

I agree it is that nastiness and grit. It really isn't part of Stan's game either. He appears to be trying to develop it.

If they really think they need that, trade Stan and bring in Bauer.

If enough people jot down Vilardi as the first scorer in the prediction contest, we might be able to manifest something..

No idea, but I miss him and his posts. Always upbeat. A while back i checked to see when he posted last and it's been very intermittent since the draft

BTW.. are you calling HIM a big ugly guy who wrangles fish, or are you referring to the fish that he wrangles?

I'm sure @Inanna can help you with your sentence structure to make it more clear lol

Until we find the resident HF Jets bard, Chat GPT will have to do

In ice-bound clash, the Kraken face the Jets,
A storm brews fierce, as foes align to fight,
With every pass, the tension softly sets,
In Seattle's home, where hearts ignite with light.

The Jets take flight, swift as the winter wind,
Their skaters weave like shadows in the night,
But Kraken's grip, unyielding, won't rescind,
Each check and shot, a dance of pure delight.

The crowd erupts as goals ignite the score,
With every save, the hope begins to rise,
In this fierce duel, the stakes are hard to bore,
As dreams unfold beneath the brightened skies.

So let the ice bear witness to their might,

In battle's thrall, they chase the gleaming light.
That is KANA to you!
