True but getting 5 mil a year should motivate one somewhat to produce to get those minutes up.

Idk I've been a fan of his but MP hasn't impressed me for sometime now. He loses a lot of puck battles and seems to be working hard, expending a lot of energy but with little purpose. I seem to recall Tanev last year received the same sort of criticism from some but I think it seems more relevant to MP's play of late.

All great points but if I was forced to focus on one the Bombers need to do: neutralize Jefferson, i.e., do not throw the ball anywhere near him. Make him cheat inside, lose containment etc. The greenies feed off his energy. Turn his energy into frustration. That frustration then will influence his teammates. Result: we win they lose.

Around The NHL 2018/2019

Interesting take. Not sure if I completely agree with the matter of fact tone to his perspective. -
Not a big PM fan? He got our Jets to the Top 4 last year and still has the team above .500. Could be worse, like Senator worse. But hear what you're saying, he has his quirks.

When that happens, I've always heard in these type scenarios that management decided well before the game and the game outcome (W or L) had no bearing on the decision to let him go. -
The other side of the coin is if Maas sits his starters it's a big eff u to them and even a bigger eff u to his starters if he wins with the back ups. He actually would be taking less of a risk by starting his back ups because if he loses today to our predominately 2nd team there will be a bus ticket waiting for him at the end of the game.

I like Sutton and the way he plays, he's a gamer but I'll take Harris everytime. -
Game 12 : @ 5am in Toronto

Hmmm I'm not as positive but he did look good on Lowry's line so there's that. -
So do the Eskimos. Awwww.

Game 12 : @ 5am in Toronto
HardCoreBlue replied to FrostyWinnipeg's topic in Winnipeg Jets Discussion
Hughson doesn't mention Jets played the night before in Detroit until the final two minutes of the game. If Toronto had be coming off a game the night before they would have mentioned it 7,367 times during the game including the pre game. Laine looks 1 step behind right now and we all know he is very hard on himself. This is where Wheeler is extremely important for him to help on the mental side. For the first two and half periods we looked really good. Still early in the season to put that all together. -

Actually I was not impressed with MP tonight. Lost ALOT of puck battles. -

Trouba plays well when he plays with an edge. When Khadri hit him from behind his play elevated. Someone needs to p*ss him off right before each game. Just saw his first period intermission interview where he says they are playing in a filthy game. Here's hoping more filthy games for him. -
Dinged up apparently.

I personally don't think he's trash. I think he's very inconsistent which has to be very frustrating for Hamilton.

Nope let's ensure TSN has a heading tomorrow 'Cancel the parade' -
Game 11 : @ Detroit Breakdown
HardCoreBlue replied to FrostyWinnipeg's topic in Winnipeg Jets Discussion
I'm starting to warm to our new back up goaltender -
For the most part I can handle the fans, it's more certain media supporters that are very hard to stomach. One of the first headings I see after this game was something to the effect of how the Leafs have now proven they are Stanley Cup Contenders. Whether that's a backhanded compliment to our Jets because the Leafs beat another Stanley Cup contender in ourselves and/or whether in fact they are legitimately a cup contender, it's how they report on the Leafs that makes me frustrated and want them to go 0-82. To check my hypocrisies, I'm sure some Winnipeg Jet Media supporters do the same thing but doesn't make it anymore bearable considering they receive more national attention then the Jets.

Knowing it's not answering your question but If Nichols wasn't available for what ever reason I'd take Masoli. Watching him for sometime now he's grown on me.
