Stast will make the road trip though

Not sure if Jets beating Pens 1-0 or Toninato beating Wheeler 2-0 🤔

[iHeart]

I just hope the COVID Wheeler had didn't become long haul

[iHeart]

ugh tie game 

[kelownabomberfan]

I hope Guntzel or however you spell his stupid name just woke up the Jets...

[BomberBall]

The Pens 2nd goal shouldn’t have happened. Vesalainen was held up/interfered with trying to pursue the puck into Pittsburgh’s zone.  Should have been called.

We **** the bed and likely lose this game.   Jets aren't getting to the dirty areas to score.  The system is too reliant on skill and hellebyuck.   

Notice that since PLD and Wheeler were put together PLD hasn't scored?  Wheeler needs less ice time.  Unfortunately unless the coach changes there will be more frustration to come.

Yeah, Wheeler has looked terrible.  He just had a decent shift, but overall he looks old and slow.  He needs to be taken off that line.

Wheeler is in the 3rd now, where he belongs. He's a good match for that line.

Absolutely abysmal performance tonight. 2 days off and to show zero urgency outside of the 1st period.  

[FrostyWinnipeg]

LOL! 55 had a guy lined up just like the first game against MTL and he doesnt take him out

 

[BomberBall]

After the Pens tied it at 1-1, shots were 21-10 Jets.  Shots ended up 36-31.  Piss poor.

[JCon]

That was a good 30 minutes of hockey. Sigh...

[Piggy 1]

Jets were sluggish and sloppy. And Leah called it like that..........

Fascinating that he was put in an almost exact situation from last year.

[Noeller]

coming into this season, I woulda said Scheif is a lock for the Oly team, but right now, I think he's played his way off the team, while someone like Mangiapane in Calgary has played his way on....

Bread eater vs Scheif? Say it ain't so.

Lol. No way mangiapane who has no history with team Canada of any kind makes it. I'd say Morrissey who has Jr history might make it. Defensively strong D. Dubois even . They have held multiple little summer camps and 55 has been to each one.  Should he make it based on his play? Probably not but political

except for, y'know, being their MVP at the Worlds last year. He's 100% playing his way onto the team. I'm not saying he for sure makes it, but he's absolutely making the case for it. And it makes me sick because I hate the fLames and their fans almost as much as Riders fans......
