February 14, 20205 yr comment_462614 Maybe Niku as trade bait..the only way it makes sense..except that Maurice for some reason has a hate on Niku..never gives him pp1 minutes even when it sucks bug time..but oh well , Maurice aint going change after scoring his extension ..
February 15, 20205 yr comment_462619 Poolman doesn’t suck.... Bitetto sucks. Poolman is on the upswing. He’s not young, at 26, but he’s only played in 68 NHL games.

Constantly dicking with the lines, outside of the top 5, hasn’t helped our offensive flow either.
February 15, 20205 yr comment_462635 The pp has accounted for 1/2 our shots. Why can't we get 5 on 5 shots?
February 15, 20205 yr comment_462637 Just no puck luck. Connor snake bitten. Ugh! Good effort but we need to start getting some points . Coming down to the wire. Edited February 15, 20205 yr by captaincanuck12
February 15, 20205 yr Author comment_462638 Seeing Poolman on the power play is sad but then after Pionk and Morrissey I guess it does not really matter. Edited February 15, 20205 yr by FrostyWinnipeg
February 15, 20205 yr comment_462639 Reminds me of Jets 1.0 - blow the games against weaker teams that would let them get a leg back in the race... Kulikov doesn't know how to play hockey and makes $4.5 million a season Kane kicks the crap out of Pionk all game and we have no answer - team is too small now... Scheif needs to pick up his game - he's pretty weak in front of the net
February 15, 20205 yr comment_462641 Scheifele, Ehlers, Wheeler, Connor, Laine and Pionk had 27 of our 31 shots. Copp had 3 shots, so that would be 30 of 31.
February 15, 20205 yr comment_462643 Difference between the Jets and the Sharks? The Sharks are doing a better job of missing the playoffs. They're going to have a top 3 pick and the Jets will be lucky if they get 12th.

Yeah the Jets really need to fall out of this race to the middle, get the pick and focus on cleaning up their cap sheet/add assets to turn the team over to the younger core and hopefully open up the next contending window. I'm really fearful that Chevy is going to do something stupid at the deadline to try to shore up the roster for the present if the Jets are still kind of in the race. He's said a couple times about "owing" it to the guys who signed here long-term. I mean at some point they all have to realize they aren't competitive with the teams that are contenders. Better off making moves to contend again than making moves to finish 8th in the conference and lose in 5-6 games. Edited February 15, 20205 yr by JuranBoldenRules

There's one deal out there that makes sense - Alec Martinez for a 2nd and prospect (Frolik or Chibisov?) Then let Maurice works his 'magic' as a coach to get us into the playoffs... Aside from that I load up on expiring contracts from cap teams for picks and D prospects

The Jets need to restock, not add another Kulikov type deal with similar output.

Martinez is better than Kulikov - but yeah Im not super excited about him... but thats the move I expect - I hope we don't do something stupid like trade a legit player for this year's run There's some decent D in this draft but I think we need to be top 12 pick to get one - and we need to change the mentality that guys can't step straight into the league... its happening all over, Heinola would have been way better served playing with the Jets this year than in Finland

Makes that 2nd round pick pretty valuable too...that's the 41st pick right now.
