May 17, 20187 yr comment_330327 Jets sucked for 2 periods. Decided to dominate 3rd.. Fleury had horseshoes or Jets win this game 4 or 5 3.
May 17, 20187 yr comment_330328 Fleury has been the difference the last two games. Don't get me wrong: the Jets have committed some disgusting errors and most of them have resulted in the puck in the back of their net. They need to get back to playing fast, smart, and tight if they hope to get back into this series. Hopefully, their play in the third tonight is a sign of things to come. Friday is now a must win game.
May 17, 20187 yr Author comment_330329 Didn't like Helle tonight and Laine had a tough time I thought on the PP as the puck was close to the blue line. Freaks me out some times. On a positive note... On a negative note... Edited May 17, 20187 yr by FrostyWinnipeg
May 17, 20187 yr comment_330331 We got Mauriced that game... Tanev-Stastny-Laine is the most ridiculous line since Thorburn-Little-Ehlers Enstrom is injured and is just not good enough - a healthy Kulikov should have been inserted Not ready to start the first and not ready to stay focused after a goal... classic Jets. Fleury is on his game - Jets need everyone focused.

I mean, we can crap on Maurice but it's the players who aren't executing on the ice. They simply have be better. For pretty much two straight games save last night's third period, the Jets seem to have underestimated their opponent and they've paid the price for doing so. They need to get back to what's made them successful in previous rounds, a part of that being having a healthy respect for one's opponent.

Yeah I think Vegas kind of sand-bagged the Jets in Game one and gave them a false sense that they weren't nearly at Nashville's level, and that made the Jets slack off a bit. Plus there's still a hang-over from the last series, which was a monumental achievement, beating the best team in the league. Let's hope period 3 is what we see for a full three periods on Friday. It's time to put this pretend team of cast-offs and losers in the dirt.

I didn't watch Vegas at all during the season - their speed and tenacity as part of a team concept is quite an interesting mix.

Fleury is on his game - Jets need everyone focused. Tanev almost scored on a great individual play. Regardless of the line he plays on, at least he puts it all out there on every shift.
May 17, 20187 yr comment_330363 Vegas plays their system and never breaks away from it... Jets are having huge defensive lapses and sloppy line changes I don't think the Jets were sand-bagged... I think these are two very good teams Sportsnet panel was pretty accurate last night - Enstrom is unable to keep up and is a liability on line changes and Helle should not handle the puck

Don't know if PaMa wants Arm or Ros playing their off wing especially Roslo.

I'm not suggesting Tanev belongs on the second line but Tanev has 6 points (31 shots) to 7 points to those three combined thus far in these playoffs. What have those three shown in these playoffs that warrants second line play? Did Tanev impede Laine's play last night? I didn't see it.

What have those three shown in these playoffs that warrants second line play? Did Tanev impede Laine's play last night? I didn't see it. I'm guessing Tanev has played way more minutes that Armia, Copp and Roslovic. Heck JRoc has barely played. I don't think anyone is saying Tanev isn't a good player, but IMO he's a good 4th line player, on this team. Having him on the 2nd line isn't good. He just doesn't have the right skill set to be in the top 6. I have no way to confirm it, but I noticed a couple of times, last night, where it appeared that when Laine had the puck, he looked over to Tanev's wing, but elected to hold onto the puck and distribute it elsewhere. If that was the case, and he doesn't feel comfortable with Tanev on his line, it's likely impeding his play. Hopefully Ehlers will be back and we don't have to worry about it.

If he did, that's on Laine not Tanev. And yes having Ehlers back would be ideal.
May 17, 20187 yr Author comment_330377 Ehlers 7 playoff points, Tanev 6. Is it that bad? FWIW Copp 3. Edited May 17, 20187 yr by FrostyWinnipeg
