Next year it will be interesting to see who makes the line-up. I think it's time to say good-bye to Thorbs, but I also don't see the point of bringing up a new young kid to play 5 minutes a night or whatever the 4th line is getting. Petan is kind of wasted on the 4th line too. Will he move up? Or will he be moved out? Edited April 2, 20178 yr by kelownabomberfan

Play the AHL hoping for a chance or be a star in Europe.

April 5, 20178 yr Author comment_257243 Jets might be the only organization that can make its fans have mixed feelings about a five game winning streak. 14-3-3 without Enstrom this season... just sayin' Wonder if Jets would be a playoff team if they had admitted that Stafford was a plug back in October... instead of giving him top 6 ice time.

Bruins are in the playoffs now, with Stafford. Stafford is not the reason the Jets are not in the playoffs. He certainly was not going to help this team get into the playoffs but he wasn't anywhere near the biggest problem.

Don't worry, I'm not blaming Stafford for everything... this team had multiple problems.

Enstrom's 2016-2017 WAR will be his worst. He is 3rd pairing at best now - but Jets are still playing him against the oppositions top players... Its not Enstrom or Stafford per se, its playing vets in roles that they were good at three years ago. Melchiori and Nogier might be AHLers but they slow down the play and can clear the front of the net.
