A pretty entertaining goalie duel last night, IMO. Both made some impressive saves. Just because a game isn't high scoring doesn't mean it was boring.

It isn't all on the coaching staff. Roster changes have been made. And yet, this team continues to make the same mistakes consistently from the standpoint of being a complete 200 ft. team and playing better defensively. A coaching change during a season rarely helps but considering the continuity outside of Maurice resigning, we see the same struggles with whatever system remains in place. Lowry as a placeholder doesn't seem to be working, so it seems like a fair and reasonable assertion that new blood on the bench is the next step in righting the ship. He's also not a 5th year pro, BTW. Logan Stanley isn't even 24 years old and hasn't even played 100 NHL games yet. He's in his second season with the Jets, having spent two (2018-19, 2019-20) with the Moose. I understand it's frustrating as hell watching this team struggle and perform poorly against seemingly inferior opponents. Attacking one player for "not having brains" based on a single mistake in which the Jets made several last night, and then making **** up to somehow justify your ridiculous opinion isn't objective or rational, though.

It's not just back-checking by the forwards. Granted, that is an issue, but there are more than a few noticeable deficiencies in terms of how this team plays. Last night's final frame put that all on full display. Whatever system's in place is not working, as we have seen what the talent on the roster can do - albeit very inconsistently. the only way to remedy that is by overhauling the entire coaching staff. This blind loyalty to inept coaches is not something for which TNSE should feel any pride at this point. It's hindering the team.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/manitoba-meteor-second-night-in-a-row-1.6396058 Anyone catch this last night? Happened around 9:45pm and was reportedly very bright.

Maurice keeping him around, not only initially but for as long as he did, was a brutal miscalculation.

Not perhaps but undoubtedly. He's been the busiest goalie in the NHL over the last five seasons: https://www.quanthockey.com/nhl/seasons/last-5-nhl-seasons-goalies-stats.html (the next busiest has played 26 fewer games) FWIW, he's still performing in the top 10 this season (https://moneypuck.com/goalies.htm) despite the Jets being a middling team in terms of puck possession (https://moneypuck.com/teams.htm). Individually, his stats have suffered and he's struggled often, but I think it speaks to broader issues that continues to plague this team: poor defensive zone play, questionable coverage, shot attempts allowed (high danger chances), and puck movement/clearing in the defensive zone. Plus the continue special teams issues, particularly on the PK. The Jets' identity as a 200 ft. team, save for the 2017-18 season, has been mostly non-existent since Hellebuyck assumed the role of starting netminder. He's fared considerably well, though. Imagine if the organization decided to address those glaring issues, instead of maintaining the status quo with a shoddy system and inept coaching.

Even if these figures are overestimated, half of that is still a staggering number over a timeframe of four weeks. That's a substantial percentage of the 150K troops sent. It's incredible how poorly planned and executed this invasion seems to be thus far, especially when Russia's military was deemed amongst the world's most formidable.

It'll be even funnier if they manage to miss the playoffs.

That Hellebuyck... What a lousy goalie. /s
