[iHeart]

it is third jersey night

 

Well he goes nothing, our backup is starting and it's against Care Price and two former Jets that have really shined since they left this team

That roster wooped the wild last game

Laine strikes first...or not

Another pretty goal nullified by a skate being off the ice.  That really needs to be changed.

Not to mention we were going to get a PP when Laine scored, so that also went down the crapper.

tie game

Bad coaching - Maurice ran his top two lines ragged in the first...

Got ready for their Christmas break yesterday.

I dare them to take that goal away from Laine this time

[captaincanuck12]

Brossoit looks like he started the break yesterday.  Beaulieu is Santa Claus with the gifts hes giving the Habs.

and Chariot slams Laine into the boards

Maurice playing Pionk more than Morrissey - doesn’t make a lot of sense

[iHeart]

okay we need a Scheif or Wheels sized miracle

[iHeart]

okay so, someone else will have to do the game day thread on friday because I'll be busy and likely won't be home til partway through the first period

Beaulieu was awful tonight.  The whole team was a dumpster fire in our zone.  A few early gifts before the holidays.

So, can I ask why the Jekyll and Hyde with this team? We seem to go from blowing teams away to getting blown away.

It's keeping other teams off balance...that way they won't know what hit them come playoff time.

Maurice has never been able to adapt to the Eastern Division speed style of game - he wants to 'grind it out' against fast teams 

The whole season has been riding on our goalie stealing games...  Blues back to back will probably define the season

Home ice advantage doesn't seem like a thing for this team recently. That was another stinkfest at BellMTS Place last night.

The depth is really getting tested at the moment. I think the blue line is starting to get exposed, too.

Yeah Maurice kinda said that too. That they have to “grind”.  Outside of Josh and Pionk the d lacks skill to compete at a high level every night.  Although they’ve performed admirably under the circumstances.  And Sbisa has been a pleasant surprise.

Also our monthly reminder that the trouba trade has turned out pretty good so far 

 

Pionk is also averaging more ice time. Might take a couple years for the D to shore up with reinforcements but the future looks bright.  I’d expect jets to look for an upgrade at the deadline if it costs very little and to be active in free agency next season especially if buff isn’t coming back.
