    I saw an interview with Doughty and he said that Vegas is maybe the hardest team to play against b/c they give full effort on every shift. That what building a team full of grinders will give you. Get

Reality is going to catch up to this team sooner than later.

I kinda think so too, especially with Fleury out.

I'm definitely cheering for the Knights...there's so much Manitoba content everywhere on the team, from the front office on down. Here's hoping they keep it up....

Knights arent good tho. They probably will crash hard soon. The talent outside of James Neal just isnt there. 

They'll come back to earth... but its a sad commentary on Buffalo and Arizona's rebuilds... probably Boston's too

At age 19, he's already become a fixture in his native Finland, with national media covering everything from his hairstyle to his girlfriend to the kind of car he drives. But he's not a heartthrob actor or soulful pop star or even a doe-eyed Instagram model. He's Patrik Laine, one of the NHL's top young scorers.

When it comes to all the attention the Winnipeg Jets winger has garnered in his homeland in such a short time, Laine just doesn't get it.

Kulikov has been fine.  Im more concerned about Myers who hasnt looked very good at time. 

im willing to give him a long leash as he gets his legs and game back.  hes been speedy and quick in the offensive zone... defensively, not so much.

 

I seem to think he was always more considered for his offensive skill set anyway tho.

Oh boy 

 

God Maurice sucks. Chiarot is Stu 2.0. Poolman has shown good puck moving ability and control. Chiarot just repeatedly bangs everything off the glass and out causing us to get hemmed in our end

Poor decision by Maurice. Then again, that tactic seems to be his bread and butter.

I'm disliking that undeserved extension more and more with every passing day (and loss).

RHD should play RHD. Even the TSN guy made note of Poolman the other night.

 

Chiarot isn’t terrible. He’s a good 7th D and has played well. 

As far as what side they play, some D men have an absolutely preference. Others prefer off side. Some don’t care. 

Poolman played both. Was he so bad on his off side that they’d prefer to start a lesser talent? I don’t think so. 

Speaking of D

was it a clean hit? I vaguely remember hearing it during the play by play on the radio.. but nothing beyond "what a big hit.." type response.

Wait, didnt he come back to play after the hit?

If so, it will likely be too late.  He needs to be fired by Halloween. 

He's got some really smart people hoodwinked. 

Or TNSE just loves to play the blind loyalty card. Maurice, Huddy, Flaherty... None of them have earned ****-all.

Why not a 3rd Pair of Poolman Chiarot.. Oh wait that would require removing a vet. Maurice won't do that. 

Why not just keep Chiarot in the press box until someone's hurt...  Poolman was absolutely not our worst Dman last game

Myers, Enstrom, Trouba were all making absolutely awful decisions
