Time: Tuesday 1900/TSN3
Stats: 13-20-7 @ 27-12-2
Streaks: W2 @ L1
Last Ten: 5-4-1 @ 6-3-1
Game Notes: The season is half over and since starting out 15-1-0 the Jets have played .500 hockey 12-11-2. 

 

Half empty, half full who cares, just make the damn playoffs. Do not look any further than that.

Once that's achieved win 16 games.

Easy peasy.

Ideally though you'd like to be going in on a roll and establish the game that made you so dominant in the first quarter of the season.  

We need two holes filled:

1. A solid top 2 D man to play with Morrissey.   This is a pipedream, but I would love to see Alex Pieterangelo in a Jets uniform.

2. A solid 2 C that can drive offense in addition to top line

AND MAYBE...

We somehow get Jonathan Toews into the lineup.  That alone would inject a tonne of life into the team, and the fans.  

I’m torn on Toews. He hasn’t played in 2 years and was putting up 3 center numbers the last couple years in Chicago. I’d sign him but he’s going on a conditioning stint with the moose 1st. Hasn’t played in so long. But the leadership and local guy would be huge. 

Agreed about needing a legit D man to play with Josh. Braden Schneider in New York or Pulock in Long Island would be my targets  

if the Jets finish the season how they started we are in great shape.

Friedman said a smart thing on Saturday night... Said the smart play for Toews is probably to wait until the offseason. Bust his ass all summer to get in the best shape possible and then start fresh in the fall. Don't half ass it for a couple months work this spring.

 

Ouch turns out Miller has a fractured LARYNX

That means more minutes for Pylon Stanley.  Ugh.

We should all accept that when everyone is healthy it’s 

Josh Demelo. Samberg Pionk. Stanley Miller. As pairs.

Think Arniel would put Fleury ahead of Stan.

I don’t know honestly. He did to start the year. But. 

Okay, Jets…. Wake up!  Can’t clear the zone and it’s quickly 4-0 in shots.

2-0 with a Bang Bang good start

They woke up.  Much better…. 2 quick ones with the 4th and 3rd lines on.

I will accept it. doesn't mean I can't complain about it!  Lol. 

Someone tell Stanley he can use his stick…. When he actually has it.

He should have left with Anaheim.  Pylon orange for a pylon player.

Slow start aside. The Jets managed to stem the tide and then roar back for a three-nothing lead.  

Whenever Stanley in d zone it’s an absolute **** show. Cogs and Ville looking more competent than Pionk and Stan. God Pionk misses Samberg. Pay Samberg. Move on from Pionk.

Where's your acceptance?

I’ve accepted it but they can’t keep pretending he’s top 4 even for another game. 

Man…. Really hope JMo is okay.  Can’t afford to lose him at any time, but especially with our D core being thin already.
