Goalie

I'm curious to know why? Just because we're the most penalized team in the league to date doesn't mean we then need to be more scrutinized in our play than other teams. IMO each game played should be reffed on a clean slate should it not? I do know they're human beings but the more professional they are the better they can control their biases in how they call the game. I'm assuming the refs are taking this approach, i.e., doesn't matter who the teams are, they will be assessed equally. Any refs out there to help me out in testing my assumption. If it is indeed the case that we are being watched more closely/given less benefit of the doubt than our opponent (which is very hard to prove), then it becomes an issue a lack of objectivity of the part of the referees, no? Oh it's just my opinion and Blake Wheelers for that matter who after the Arizona game came out and said they were a "marked team". Do i think it's the case? Sometimes i wonder for sure, Sometimes when watching I see the Jets get called for a penalty and i think, that was iffy but whatever, as long as the refs call it for the other team, it's all good. Then the other team does the same thing and it doesn't get called and it makes me wonder a bit more. There is no way to prove it, but the eye test watching the games at times certainly does make me at least wonder if there is some truth to the fact that the Jets are indeed being watched a little more closely than the other team. Not sure if it's true or not, just my opinion and like i said, Blake Wheelers also but... who really knows. If it is true, that's a problem. I hope it's not true but... at times i do wonder about it. No way to prove it one way or the other, just like i said, watching the game, Jets get called on an iffy call, other team does the same and doesn't. Makes you wonder at times for sure. Regardless tho, the Jets need to take less penalties and actually capitalize on their chances when they do get the power play opportunity. Jets went like 1 for 16 on the PP these last 3 games, the other teams went 7 for 16 or something. Just looking at the numbers, does seem to actually be called pretty even but... at times, definitely makes me wonder about some calls or non calls.

Greg Quick eh. Interesting for sure, Montreal had a good D tho but most of that was probably due to Thorpe and the talent on the field, Not sure what this guys credentials are but i'd imagine, he's just another lamb for Chamblin to Sacrifice when things start to go south.

Honestly prior to this 3 game trip i thought to myself, Arizona? that's an easy 2 points so we should get 2 points at least and i'd consider that somewhat of a good trip. We absolutely got dominated tho by Arizona and after that i thought, oh crap, here comes the losing streak. Beat LA in LA? you kidding? awesome. Can't believe it. Big win too since we were tied with them in the wildcard standings. Thought if we could get a point from the ducks, unlikely as the ducks are one of the best teams in the league and you know they were gonna be fired up with the Teemu Jersey retiring, it's a great trip. 3 out of 4 points in a back to back is fantastic especially against LA and Anaheim. The Arizona loss really hurt them, should have dominated that game and got 5 of 6. All in all tho, i'd say it was a good road trip. Tough road trip but a good one. Jets tho are a marked team in terms of the penalties they take, they get called for some the other team gets away with. Refs are watching the Jets like hawks for sure, Jets need to be aware of this. I'd bench slater now, The guy seems to be a bit of a liability on the PK, the last 2 games he took 2 penalties that directly lead to a 5 on 3 for the other team and the other team capitalized on those power plays. Slater needs a talking too or to be taken off the PK for a while. Thought PAV made several huge saves, pretty spectacular ones at that, People can say what they want but Ducks had 43 shots on goal and several were pretty point blank chances. Pav played very well. Shoot-out sucked tho. Not blaming the goalie here at all, Wheeler scored on the first attempt,Ducks didn't. Chance to go up 2 and dagger the ducks in the shootout and we can't, ducks come back and can't score on PAV, last shooter can end it with a goal, he doesn't. Ducks come back and score. We had 2 chances there in the shootout to end them, 3 actually but just couldn't do it. Needed a goal but just couldn't get it. I love Buff and he's a beast but what you saw last night was good buff and bad buff, definitely cost us a goal there. But all in all, he was a beast and played well. Honestly, if someone told me we'd get 3 of 6 points prior to the road trip and those 3 points would be from the California portion, i would have said, no way in hell.

43 shots 4 goals 906 save percentage jets laid off after getting the lead again tho. Pav did play well,very well actually. Blaming him for a buff giveaway? K.

Lol. No. I just watched the game. You need to chill. Reading some of your posts definitely screams of way too emotional.

But if you must Quick 21 of 25 840 Hutch 25 of 29 862 Man the kings should send that Stanley Cup winning best goalie in franchise history packing.

Save percentage is irrelevant. Jets won the game. Stop reading In to stats. 2 goals on a 5 on 3 and then 5 on 4 pp.

So what, Toby might be small but he's a #1 d man or at worst #2 on most teams in the league, you don't give those guys away for crap. and old injured crap at that.

Enstrom for Lupul? WTF and WHY? Enstrom is our best LHD and on a contract that is very good and long term, Lupul is an injury prone winger who wouldn't crack our top 6. Why the heck would a Fan of the Jets even propose such garbage. Enstrom should be able to get you something better than an injury prone winger on a bad contract. Do people pay attention to the Jets? Draft and Develop approach or just think.. Hey, let's move this guy for that guy just because. A top 2 D man for not even a top 6 forward? Toronto adds and adds quite a bit actually. Let's just throw away our top d men for nothing? You kidding me? Want to become the Oilers? Most i'd give for Lupul and i wouldn't touch him but.. Postma and Thorburn. Nothing more. The guy just isn't worth much and definitely not worth a top 2 d men, hell not even worth a top 4 d men. Do people think D men grow on trees?

Postma and Pardy would definitely be behind Clitsome, they are both healthy scratches tonight. Not sure if people have paid attention or what, but Postma has really struggled lots recently, actually most the season. When everyone was injured, Postmas ice time either went down or remained the same, The guy seriously averaged 10 minutes or less of ice time per game, on a good night, he'd play 12 minutes. Postma sucks, Pardy sucks, Clitsome did not suck, he made some errors at times sure... but the guy was and is better than Postma and Pardy, Those 2 being healthy scratches tonight pretty much proves it. Sure Enstrom and Stuart are back but.. I'd be willing to bet anything that if Clitsome was healthy, he'd probably be playing over Postma and Pardy that's for sure. Not sure of peoples fascination with Postma, He's not good. Clitsome is way better and it's unfortunate that his career more than likey will be over now. Sucks to lose him to an injury like that. Really nice guy too, Lives near my parents house, actually lives on the street my sister lives on and have met him several times, likes to go skating down at the local community club at times. Really nice guy and a pretty good player actually. All you really need to do is look at time of ice and see that Clitsome was trusted to play more minutes than both Pardy and Postma.

Was that a reported story? if so, can you share the link? I can't find it but i did read it, i believe it was on twitter. Not sure exactly tho, wouldn't make that up tho that's for sure. Kind of shocked me when i read it, not Bene turning the job down but the shocking part and the part that stuck out to me was Regina doesn't have a Childrens Hospital. It might have been one of those speculation type of reports, but i guess the main thing i got out of it was it's crazy that Regina is building a stadium but doesn't have a Childrens Hospital.

All i am going to say is it's too bad that Regina is building a new stadium yet they don't have a childrens hospital. That is a sad state of things for sure. Seriously? That's pretty brutal. I read one of the reasons Bene didn't want to go to regina was due to the fact he has a special needs child and regina doesn't have a childrens hospital. If that truly is the case, Regina needs to get off their butts and build one. How don't you have a Childrens Hospital yet you are building a 200 plus million dollar stadium.

Sad story, never knew the guy personally but always saw him around at bomber and jets games. Seemed like a very genuinely nice person. Tragic really. Anyone know what happened? Paper said he was found at home.

Just throwing it out there, Jordan Yantz, draft eligible no? Think someone gives him a shot? seems to have all the tools. Wouldn't hate it if the bombers gave him a chance.

Kane too. Big Game, LA and them are tied in the wildcard standings. This is a big big game for sure.

I agree with Groulx also right now, Just makes sense, we seem to have quite a few interior oline guys plus a couple "prospects" in Everett and Goossen even. Not much at the tackle spot. Groulx could be that guy.

Lots of Oline in the upcoming draft. A few will get NFL shots for sure tho, Boyko definitely. But, I could see how they maybe take a oline at 11 and someone else at 2. Last year they took 2 oline, Goossen at 2 and Everett much later, round 4 or later maybe? Can't recall but just because they say they plan on taking 2 OLINE, doesn't mean they need to take one in round 1 and 2. I disagree with the blog a bit, I do indeed see them going for an OLINE at 2, however, if free agency comes and they sign a guy like Holmes or let's say Heenan even, Things could possibly change. What if they sign both? Lots of variables first. Gotta see what happens in free agency, then i will probably go more in depth about what i think will happen at the draft but as things stand right now, January 10th, I do see them going Oline at 2. If they sign Heenan or Holmes even, i could see them going after the best available DL or Receiver at 2 for sure and then grabbing that oline at 11, surely one or 2 will be there still. I also see them taking an oline later in the draft and that oline going back to school much like Quinn Everett did. Waud is quite the specimen, but again, what if Bilukidi or Mulumba come north.. So many variables still, draft is so far away still.. so much can happen between now and then.

Ya. Pav played well last game. Had no chance on heck I'd say all 4. Maybe the last one he could have but was a nice play by the Coyote. Pav made probably 10 big saves last night. Played well enough to win. The team in front didn't tho.

Team is better overall but injuries have caught up.

Jets have lost 4 of 5 now. Hutch in goal for 3 of those I believe. Don't matter who in net if the team in front of him don't show up. Jets owned tonight. Easily could have been 8 9 to 1. Pav made the game closer than it was. Ppl need to stop with the goalie bs. It's the team not just one guy.

Coyotes aren't good, They are in the MCEICHEL sweepstakes for sure and if rumors are true are looking to unload some money and go full on rebuild. Guys like Vermette,Yandle,Doan even may not be long for Zona anymore. Jets should beat them, they are better than the Coyotes.

That tweet is Chris Greaves saying good luck to Mike Renaud Ahh i see. Well, guess i missed that lol.

Why did he ask it? Because Kessel took zero responsibility for the coach being fired. It's really that simple. I'm not sure why people are sticking up for Kessel here. The guy is in the first year of a contract that pays him 8 million a year, he's being paid 10 million this year actually. He took zero responsibility for the coach getting fired. He is the face of that team, whether he likes it or not and should show some darn leadership instead of sulking and crying. This isn't the first time Kessel has been a ****** either, it's not even the second, his character and work ethic has been question before. When Claude Noel was fired, every Jets player to a man stood up there and said, it was their fault that Noel was fired, Kessel didn't even come close to saying anything like that. Do some google searches on the history of Phil Kessel and coaches and you will see that the reporter had every right to ask that question.

i really don't see how renauds tweet indicates he has retired. Maybe i'm missing something there tho.. Just seems like a tweet to a friend he saw earlier in the day but didn't say Congrats on the retirement.

and then they go out and lose like 5 or 6 to 2 to Washington. lol.
