TrueBlue4ever Posted March 7, 2023 Report Posted March 7, 2023 So I don’t like calling for trading players for extended poor play because you never know what might be underlying (like when everyone slagged Morrissey two year ago before learning he played through his dad’s cancer), but there are more than few key struggling Jets right now (Ehlers, DuBois, Pionk, Lowry stand out) and in cases of Ehlers and Dubois who have been injured and playing through it or come back slowly, at what point are these players better off sitting than playing hurt ineffectively? Best this club showed was when their Moose call-ups were in and working hard. Since the regulars returned they should be better based on talent but results are not there. Is it just attitude or is there something more, and is a 100% Gustaffson better in the lineup than a 60% DuBois?
Noeller Posted March 7, 2023 Report Posted March 7, 2023 any time you lose to a bottom feeder team, you played poorly. Jets deserved to lose that one, if for no other reason than their complete ineptitude on the PP.... Stickem and Piggy 1 1 1

Mark F Posted March 7, 2023 Report Posted March 7, 2023 (edited) I think possibly the Jets do not have a leader that elevates those around him. like Jonathon Toews seemed to do. it almost seemed like his teammates were afraid of him a little bit. and afraid to let him down. the odd time I watched them anyway. he was grim. intense. Just a guess, cause the Jets have good enough players to be doing better than they are, and have done. probly not coaching. Edited March 7, 2023 by Mark F

I think Morrissey is TRYING to be that guy, and has shown it a few times this year..... and I feel like Lowry is close to being that guy. I used to think Scheifele might be that guy, but he's slipping in my books... Mark F 1
blue_gold_84 Posted March 7, 2023 Author Report Posted March 7, 2023 Scheifele's defensive lapses are baffling at times. But I feel like that can be said for a number of top players on this team. It's hard to be certain but it seems like Bowness has lost the room a bit. Noeller 1

I used to think Scheifele might be that guy, but he's slipping in my books... Lowry can’t be that guy because he can’t score. Sometimes the leader doesn’t just have to scare guys, he needs to say “ I am putting this team on my back and single-handedly winning this game.” A guy who scores once in 34 games is not that guy, no matter how much “character” he has. A Connor McDavid can call out his teammates for poor efforts and not producing because no one can fire back “oh yeah, what about your performance of late?” Right now the only guy on this team who can criticize others for lack of results in the past two years and not have to look in the mirror about his own play is Hellebuyck.

captaincanuck12 Posted March 7, 2023 Report Posted March 7, 2023 Buff has been gone for 5 years. The team should have moved on by now. Not sure wtf the problem is with the Jets, but it's very concerning their play as of late.
blue_gold_84 Posted March 7, 2023 Author Report Posted March 7, 2023 Uh, it hasn't even been four years yet.
