Wow Rittich.  That's a terrible goal to give up.

And the three game winning streak comes to an end.  Columbus sweeps the series.  Absolutely atrocious power play.  Really terrible goal by Rittich and the offense completely dried up.

On a positive note, CBJ is no longer the worst team in the NHL.

Our next 8 games 😰

Is it just me or does this team still find ways to play down to its opponent on a consistent basis?

The East is some kind of kryptonite for the Jets.

They're 10-12 vs the East. They have 4-10 on the road and 6-6 at home vs the East. 

They're 24-8-1 vs the West.

Regardless of location, F'ing Columbus whatever jackets!!!?? It was suppose to be that free bingo card space.

Oh well, scrub this junker from memory and move on.

Thanks for compiling the data. That is bewildering.

4 pts to CBJ (sweep), 2 pts to DET, 2 pts to MTL, 2 pts to PHI. 10 pts to garbage teams that could've had this team sitting quite comfortably atop the division and the conference. Hell, even OT losses would have them sitting atop both right now.

Bewildering.

Wasn’t able to watch the game, aside from about 10 minutes of the 1st.  1-7 on the PP and 0-3 with a 2 man advantage??  That is really disturbing.  I guess it’s better than struggling 5 on 5, as it’s easier to address, but it definitely needs to be rectified.

The struggles on the PP, IMO, are attributed to losing faceoffs.  Consistently the Jets lose the first face off when the PP starts and they lose 15 PP secs right off the bat.  Guys are scrambling to get into position and the opposition PK forces the Jets into making mistakes as they enter the zone.  If they can rectify the faceoffs, they will be more relaxed on the PP, and not as scrambled.   

Also faceoffs in general have been a problem for this team.   If they can start winning more draws, they can start dictating play, because they have more possession.
