Ehlers ...tied for 3rd for most assists. 16

Laine ... tied for  2nd for most goals. 13

Scheifele ... tied for 2nd points race (26) and tied for 2nd in goals. 13

How lucky are we to have had them carry the O while we have had so many injuries?

 

fixed it...oops

Crosby has 15 goals.

Saw some people on twitter saying Ehlers is snakebit and will come around soon and yet he's having a great season.  I breath easier on a break into the O zone when he has the puck.  He's so good.  He's really good in a way Laine isn't yet.  But when Laine does come to play at his level all the time and understand the time and space of the NHL game, he will be unstoppable.

You see Laine and you think there is a player that can score every single game.  Give it two years, maybe three and E-S-L will be scoring a ton of points.

Gotta think if Little Trouba Myers Perreault were all here and or healthy that the record would be better. Play of the vets kind of concerning tho. Trying to be to cute

As far as the Jets go, Wheeler is playing very well as of late and Little has been missed as has MP.

Staf can just go away and take Thorbs and Burmi with him. Buff is trying to do too much because we are always chasing the game and Enstrom and Trouba have played well. Buff playing 30 minutes a game is crazy.

"Interesting" take on The Trade from a Sabres fan perspective, calling the deal a bust for both sides.

From the blog, particularly the takes on Armia and Lemieux, of which I presume the writer is basing purely on stats and not from observing any play since they have left the Buffalo organization:

Fast forward to today and nearly every person involved in the trade has disappointed in some way.

...

Joel Armia: A former first-rounder, Armia was starting to blossom in the AHL when he was shipped off. He has since split time between the AHL and NHL and has 14 points in 53 games for the Jets. It’s beginning to seem like he’s not going to make it as a scorer at the NHL level.

Brendan Lemieux: The son of legendary pest Claude Lemieux was taken with the first pick of the second round in the 2014 draft. He was supposed to be a carbon copy of his old man: talented, physical and a pest; the prototypical ‘hate to play him, love to have him on your team’ guy. He dominated in his final two years of juniors, but hasn’t produced much in the way of offense at the AHL level. In 24 games over the past two seasons, he’s put up just 10 points. He won’t be 21 until March, but early returns have not been encouraging.

Armia will never be a top line scorer, but he's shown definite signs that he can be an effective middle 6 winger.  Lemieux's key attributes are not going to be purely offensive.

Further still to get what the Jets got in moving Kane, when they had absolutely no other choice but to move him after the tracksuit incident, hard to call the trade a bust from a Jet perspective.

Roslovic alone might make it a win for the jets.  Too soon to tell. Funny how they want to compare the two experienced NHL players to the prospects we got. Give another couple of years and revisit.

Id thought Kasdorf would be backup by now in Buf.

Also we have to wait to see who BUF gets for Kane other then VGK's first rounder :P

Didn't know where to put this...

Jets have 8 forwards and 3 defensemen that were 1st round draft picks. That's 11 out of 23.

I'm not counting Myers or Armia or Connor...

Sure shows you how much drafting higher up in the draft means.
