I agree. If you call him up, play him.
-
A really good test for the Jets tonight... Montreal, New York and Chicago are the best in the league right now. We know how they did against the Rangers.
-
Golf trip?
-
That's how bad I want him gone...been saying it since spring actually. Thorbs probably won't be traded but I would guess he might go overseas to finish out his playing career.
-
Connor Scheif Laine Perreault Petan Wheeler Ehlers Little Armia Tanev Lowry Dano This might also work....no need for Staf or Burmi or Thorbs. Matthias and Copp in the pressbox rotating in and out of the 4th line. That is a pretty solid first three lines and MP is on the LW where he should be.
-
I'd do Staf, Burmi and Thorbs for a starting 3LHD that is better than Stu or Chiarot or a 2nd rounder. Staf probably won't be moved until the TD unfortunately. It'll be a shame to see some of these guys going back down to the Moose. Dano really deserves to stay. Maurice said MP and Staf are shorter term to return and are with the team for the road trip. I think it is the longest road trip of the year.
-
Thorbs knows this is his last season here and quite possibly, in the league. One of the reasons he is fighting more this year. I wold try to trade him somewhere. He could easily be replaced by Lemieux.
-
Seguin with 20 points in 16 games and Scheif with 20 points in 17 games as they sit on top of the points sheet.
-
Wheeler, Little. Stafford, Buff, Enstrom, Perreault, Stafford, and Scheifele isn't enough of a veteran presense?
-
Talent is more key and Lipon does not have much.
-
wow, what does that tell us about how far Lipon has fallen down the list?
-
November 21st and 22nd are the only two days in a row the team has off all month. They knew this coming in and the injuries should have been expected...maybe not this many but with this schedule, you have to expect more than usual injuries.
-
I honestly think Armia has been better than Staf since the end of last season. If Staf had Armia's D game, it wold be closer but he doesn't. Send Staf to Vancouver or the Isles for whatever you can get for him. A 2nd rounder? Okay. A 3rd rounder? Grudgingly but and 3rd and 4th or 3rd and 5th would be a lot better. If I had anything to say, Burmi and Thorbs would probably never wear a Jets uni again unless Thorbs wants to retire in one. Ehlers and Laine playing their "natural" sides had something to do with defending I think. Maurice mentioned it in one of the media scrums. All of the youngster's (not counting Howden because of only one game played) have played very well. I don't think any of them should be sent down but what do you do? The only reason some of them will be sent down is because they don't have to clear waivers. Next year will be a different story. edit...as per Little...it shows the team needs some depth at center and his and the other injuries might be a blessing in disguise as they have been able to look at these young players before maybe they wanted to or had a chance to.

What will the forwards lineup look like with everyone healthy? What I'd like to see... Ehlers Scheif Laine Perreault Little Wheeler Connor Petan Armia Tanev Lowry Dano What we'll probably see... Ehlers Scheif Laine Perreault Little Wheeler Matthias Lowry Stafford Tanev Copp Armia I think Maurice sends Petan and Copp back to the Moose and if they can't move Thorbs and/or Burmi, Dano will probably go down too. D lineup I'd like to see Enstrom Trouba Morrissey Buff Chiarot Myers Not sure what Maurice will do the the D once Myers is back. I've been saying since the end of last season that Stafford needs to go. 20 goal season or not. He will impede the younger players' progress. Matthias was signed for PK and the draft but I would pressbox him most games. I'd waive Thorbs and Burmi if they can't be moved. Chevy is waiting for the most he can get on Burmi but cut your losses and move on. We're in a playoff spot but I would still give Lemieux and Roslo 2-3 games to let them get their feet wet and a bit of a reward AND a bit of a carrot. Connor's D game has improved but he needs to pot the odd goal, first year or not. There's a few young players that are putting the pressure on him too. With Morrissey playing well, how the coach distributes the ice time between the D men once Myers comes back should be interesting.
-
Howden has no future on the big team....I would love to see what Lemieux could do with Lowry on the same line. I actually thought he had a really good chance of making the team before his injury. edit.......Roslo I would call up to see what he can do....just to take a look at what he could do in the NHL and give him a taste of the big money and the NHL. So, when he goes back down he knows what to expect the next timehe is called up... I am not talking about calling these guys up and giving them a spot on the roster for the rest of the season.

Game 16 : The Kids Are Alright @ Rocky Mountain High

Wheeler looked good to me..........let's not forget he is mainly playing with two rookies. -
They couldn't give Roslo or Lemieux a call?
-
Let's assume nobody gets traded and Armia, Little, Matthias, Staf and MP are back from injuries...what does management do with the lineup?

I think Hutch is an average backup at best but what do you expect from a 26 year old goalie making 1.15m per year? I thought he had a strong game to be honest. -
