Its just a microcosm for the greater control of media throughout the world... sports media is banal at its best. No big loss.
These companies realize that fans will occupy whatever analysis was previously provided by 'sports reporters'... my advice to Wiecek is to write for JetsNation and start his own brand.
Sports, in itself, is just a nice pointless activity where we can argue about random and meaningless statistics while we delude ourselves that we have some sort of attachment or influence on a multinational corporation whose basic responsibility is profit and not winning. It fulfils our base and gladitatorial instincts while keeping us restrained within civically acceptable mores.
That being said, I will watch the game tomorrow and wait for Lawless and Order's 'analysis'.
Interesting comments out of Columbus... that one of the first things Torts did was get rid of the game day skate... so maybe rest isn't so bad after all.
Assuming they will actually practice between Saturday and Tues... of course
Interesting idea with Czuchman... I remember how good Chiarot looked before Stuart mentored him
Speaking of which... we'll probably see Myers-Stu before anything...
Jets have to ride it out - trade deadline is the time for deals not now.
Only changes I would make:
- try Trouba-Morrissey as your top pairing, they've looked great in limited ice time... let Enstrom cover for Buff all the time maybe even Chiarot back with Buff and Enstrom with Postma - there is just not enough talent on our third pairing to match up to anything...
- move Petan up to second line and Perrault to 3rd/4th line C
- play Helle until he drops... let him find his groove
thats about it - re-evaluate closer to TD
No, what is sad is that everyone is saying that its part of the problem but you just want to take credit for some kind of epiphany.
And what is also sad is how you still don't understand that we need Hutch for the expansion draft.
See this is what you do... you just post and post and post and then take credit for something when one of your 10,000 variations happens.
Its like pretending that you had some special insight that Stafford and Thorburn suck or claiming you knew we'd never make the playoffs.
The only thing you really went with was trading Myers... and now that Myers is hurt you can see how bad this D is without him.
So you say you knew all along Jets weren't making the playoffs... but now its a better plan to have two goalies sit and do nothing rather than have Comrie develop in AHL and Helle carry the team for the rest of the season.
Might be time to step back on your Hutch obsession.
Helle
1st year - 28GP, .918, 2.34, 2SO
2nd year - 28GP, .909, 2.71, 2SO
Price
1st year - 41 GP, .920, 2.56, 3SO
2nd year - 52 GP, .905, 2.83, 1SO
But yeah, let's give up on Helle, he'll never amount to anything.
