Being nosy but don't really care at the EOD, wondering the specifics of the alleged squabbles between Nuck's JT Miller and Elias Pettersson? I'm sure Redditt's got it covered but don't like to wander around those parts if I can help it.

Game 52 : @ Habitant French-Canadian Pea Soup
HardCoreBlue replied to FrostyWinnipeg's topic in Winnipeg Jets Discussion
To my untrained eye in watching Miller when he has played this year, sitting him makes no sense to me. I would think he grades out higher than how it shows here but what do I know as a random poster on the worldwide web. -

90%?? Way too low. Every receiver better learn how to block. -

That would be outstanding to watch. I would pay premium dollar for court side tickets. -

That's okay, you don't need to follow hockey, all you need to know is the Leaf's suck and will always suck. And now you have the only answer you will need to reply to any hockey related question you may get. For example, 'hey do you know how many regular season games there are in the NHL?' Your reply, Sure I know that. Leafs suck and will always suck. -

Fair and also need to move on from players (e.g., JT) who we can't trust to be consistent with their play on the field. -
I see they don’t call initial cross checks by Calgary just the follow up cross checks by Winnipeg. Ffs

2.87 .904 11 starts not bad. Healthy run support today would be appreciated.

If that's what highly skilled football people with minimal bias say then so be it I'm off the mark truly but to my untrained technical football eye, even when he's fresh off a rotation, it still feels we are playing with 11 players on the field, getting washed out consistently, no push with the odd tackle/pressure made but no consistency of play we expect with his reps. I think that's a reasonable request. It feels like playing sports where you had to hide that one player in the starting roster with the goal of minimal negative impact. E.g., like shoving the worst player to right field in baseball but the good teams would still take advantage of it. -
The injury to Chibrikov is quite unfortunate.

Fleury and Stanley healthy scratches I assume? Arniel busy with his blender I see. -

I'm sorry, who's this Harris you talk of? -
I'm a guy that doesn't take himself seriously but I take what I do for a profession seriously. This is a serious issue and the guy who threw the nacho's on the ice has to be dealt with and used as an example to help deter future behaviour like this, i.e., lifetime ban from the arena. This could give other low critical thinkers ideas where it aint nachos but something more dangerous. In this particular case making it funny and not serious comes with a risk which behind the scenes I'm hoping they aren't.

Game 48 : Long Underwear @ Magic Underwear
HardCoreBlue replied to FrostyWinnipeg's topic in Winnipeg Jets Discussion
Just make the damn playoffs. I assume nothing until that's confirmed. -
I did say praise and/or blame is distributed in varying percentages across the players, not distributed equally but the point remains QB1 is the guy who runs the show but can't do it all by himself, needs to be surrounded by a good supporting cast and have coaches/management who field this supporting cast and put them in positions to be successful that play to the QB's strengths. So when autopsies of games are done, yes bad QB play is exposed but what also is exposed is bad supporting cast play and bad coaching/management decisions. The beauty of breaking down game tape that as fans usually don't see and have the skill to understand what transpired from plays being whistled in to whistled dead. I've attended these game tape reviews in minor football and things were flying over my head constantly and/or helped me understand what was really going on that I didn't catch in real time.

Interesting with some valid points but losing 3 straight GC games does not fall solely on the shoulders of ZC. Football is the ultimate team sport ergo win or lose as a team. Praise and/or blame is usually distributed in varying percentages across the players, coaches and management.

In the case of Rider fans it's not that don't read Riderfan forums its that they can't read no matter how hard they try. 🙂 -
I don't think anyone is suggesting we lost because Ambles didn't play. I think its adding to the debate about dressing starters at 50%-70% versus dressing depth players at 100%.

What happens when Fleury is ready to go and no D go down in the meantime? Anything? It will be interesting to see what happens. -
