Colorado really was the game that Helle should have started... but I think Maurice keeps running with Pavs now - except both the Jets and Pavs are coming back to the reality that we won't score four goals every game Streak watch: 13 games - Jets have allowed 3 or more goals

Since when does Colorado play a grinding style of hockey... is that what Bodner was trying to install there? Avalanche have been run-and-gun since day one.

Classic Jets... finally put three together and then they are not prepared to keep winning. Or just don't care. Ehlers and Laine playing peewee hockey. Buff playing at halfspeed. Jets must have had a good Friday night. Why is Thorburn in the lineup if teams can still run our best players at will? Is 5 minutes a game really intimidating anyone?

why are Laine and Ehlers on second powerplay unit... this is ridiculous

why is Maurice not losing his shit...

Scheif destroyed and Jets still playing like its a sunday drive...

What a joke - Jets come out worse after Zadorov has been headhunting all game

Total head shot

They should have been benched in the second... knock some sense into them

Maurice let's them play a very free-wheeling style... which is strange because he likes players like Lowry and Copp Ehlers and Laine need to get their head into this game Matthias now using Thorburn's patented spin/shoot strategy

12 consecutive games giving up 3 or more goals... wow - thats a crazy stat

Everyone should be happy with this game.... Pavs is better than we give him credit for and coaching really is the problem.

Pavs on fire... team still playing shit D

Pav is definitely on his streak... but its unfortunate to see Helle sit against Colorado - I'd like to see Pavs play 2-3 games then Helle 1 and cycle that through rest of the season... its nice to win but the team is just treading water again.

Since we're arguing about Corsi etc... I thought I'd throw out a fancy stats report - at least how I interpret them http://www.hockey-reference.com/teams/WPG/2017.html - Ehlers probably should have been our all-star instead of Laine... - Petan has dropped a bit but still has nice numbers with a marginally increased role - Armia is dropping off, his stats were dominant earlier in the season - injury? - Copp has looked good with increased role but his stats say he's not driving play... something to watch - Petan, Laine and (sigh) Stafford are our best powerplay performers - Buf is a liability on the power play but is dominant 5v5 - Enstrom and Trouba should be our PP point men with Laine or Petan - Morrissey should get more time on PK - Chiarot with surprising good stats on PK...? - Lowry probably should not be our main option to kill penalties - Our special teams still suck

Never said they were cheap. I said they don't spend near the cap. Either way, they will be forced to spend to the cap in a couple years... maybe then we'll be in the playoffs.

If the Jets won the staring contest, he would be here for 6 years at $5.5... Other players have signed deals like this and been traded. More than have re-signed I think... As for the Myers contract... it probably doesn't really matter since the Jets don't spend anywhere near the cap - then again, if they did, we probably wouldn't be arguing about goaltending, coaching, etc etc on here and might be talking about the playoffs

Anyone else think that the fix was in so that Crosby's team met McDavid's in the 'final'?

Buff is the third highest paid D in the league... Enstrom is 19th and Myers is 26th... http://www.spotrac.com/nhl/rankings/cap-hit/defenseman/ So how do you tell Trouba that he's not worth $7-7.5 million a year for six years to stay in Winnipeg... Chevy has already established that you get a premium to play here. Myers contract is garbage for the fans... great for a team - that's already swimming in cash.

I mean I'd take Matthias, Lowry, Copp or Dano ahead of Hellebuyck... especially if Raanta, Fleury, Bishop, etc are exposed

Darling would be one of the only goalies I'd look at right now... I think Chicago would trade him knowing they'll lose him to Vegas. Then protect him and play the odds that Vegas does not take Helle.

Here's a crazy idea... since Franklin is still under contract with the Eskimos, maybe he stays there this season

I don't see it as a great contract anymore... heavy cap hit for a 2nd tier or 3rd pairing D

We should sign Greiss.

Wtf are you talking about. You started this whole thing by insinuating that other people (me) think 'only' fancy stats matter. Along with our 'buddy' Craig Button...
