Fuck, that harmonized guitar line is baaaaaaad asssssssss
He didn't say for sure if Montoya would play against Columbus, with how little work Price has had to do this week I would expect him to play that game as well.
No one likes to talk about it, but Fefe has been a shadow of his former self since he missed a week with that "minor" lower body injury that they were all so vague about. God even typing it makes me want to puke.
Fair, but I slave away on these posts, I mean really put my heart and soul (and the time and energy I should probably be using for my job frankly but whatever) so I need you at 100% when you reply. Pucks in deep, keep the game simple, full 60 minutes next time.

I have to say I don't quite understand the Jets. It seems like they have enough good players to be good (Scheifele, Wheeler, Laine, Ehlers, Byfuglien, Trouba etc) but seem to let games slip away from them at some point.
Ugh, I could post a thousand words but.... you and me both fam.
Team is still young but the goal tending has been average at best this year. Discipline remains a problem and the special teams are *bad* as they always are. I really think it's time for Maurice to go, structurally this team is just poorly managed and they don't get results in line with their growing talent.
I thought this year they were going to be a bubble team and just miss the playoffs but improve over last year. They aren't even reaching that modest goal so far. At this point I'm just hoping for more bullshit luck with the ping pong balls, although there isn't a truly great talent in this draft Patrick or Liljegren would sure help.

Maybe it's a leadership thing? Not sure if Ladd was a good captain.
I agree their goaltending is average, and their special teams aren't great, but I do think the game last night could've gone either way; Markstrom played well and got some luck. That breakaway goal was brutal though; you don't give one up at even-strength when in the offensive zone.

I will say that Hellebuyck doesn't seem quite ready for the #1 gig, which of course means he may never be ready. Jets may need to wait until 2020 once Comrie is ready in order to be competitive.

They're built to be a 8-9-10 team. They need a quick reset.
It's time to move a pick or 2. 1st rounders. Get a good young player who wants out of his current situation. Free agency will be their draft.
Goaltending is an issue. I bet there's a back-up in California they could trade for.
Defence needs to be shored up. Free agency should be focused on grabbing some grit 'n' tuffness.
Coaching too. Maurice lacks the experience IMO. A guy like Ron Wilson, when he's healthy, would be an ideal choice.
Make space on the roster via buyouts. Jets fans have waited long enough, right?
The final piece, or pieces: Add a local kid, gritty scorer type. A guy who'll risk a suspension and jump over the boards to protect Ehlers or something.
👏
I burst into tears reading this simply because a sizable minority of Jets fans would agree unironically with this 100%.

33 points in 35 games is light years ahead of 31 points in 31 games? Stats, oh they are stats my lonely friend.

Edit: I was wondering where i got the word baitiest from.
I said it earlier this year and I'll say it again so you guys can put me on a pedestal or laugh me out of the OT never to return again: The Golden Knights will win a playoff series before the Jets win a playoff game.
I don't really believe it but I stand by my stupid opinion

Oh come on it's not that hard to tell when a post is made with the sole purpose of getting the salt flowing.
It happens like 15 times per page in this thread.
Yeah that's crazy and almost impossible to imagine happening. As it stands right now the Knights are getting SHIT and the league has a few months to make trades simply to make the offerings even worse.
The stories of Vegas being more than a bit disappointed at their mock drafts cracked me up, but I'll admit before the season I totally bought into the idea that the expansion draft would be reasonably deep this time around. Guess not! I think the anonymous scout who said they were going to have 1 third line and 3 fourth lines was on to something.

The Jets will win a playoff series before Vegas gets out of the bottom 10 in the standings. Vegas is gonna be pretty shit for a while and the Jets could theoretically turn around pretty quickly with the solid players they already have.
Babsock is replacing the best real gud pro and real gud human bean on the team with another real gud pro and real gud human bean

I wonder if Froese will play over the Goat or if he's here to be an extra. Or maybe Willy goes back on the wing, Leivo gets scratched and both Froese and the Goat get in.
Either way, I don't think this team is ready for life after Bozak. Centre depth is kinda nasty without him.

I'm much more the "Conan" type when it comes to the good things in life.
They'll have a couple of good goalies (Pens will trade one so they don't lose Murray though I bet) and 1 or 2 decentish defensemen, but all that means is they'll lose a lot of 2-0 and 3-1 games.
I expect the Jets to lose someone like Adam Lowry or Marko Dano and that will be one of their better forwards and probably play on their second line. That shit's going to be grim for a while.
Wings play on Xmas Eve here (technically the 23rd in the States). If they don't win I'm going to be very Grinch-like. The team has sucked so far. I'm angry and not used to this. It feels like withdrawal.

Vegas will be a contender with Luca Sbisa on their blueline.
To be honest he actually hasn't been that bad lately. But with Gudbranson getting an extension and Stecher/Tryamkin coming up, he's too expensive for a bottom-pairing guy.
Sbisa is just 26, to be fair. While forwards can enter their prime in their early 20s or even late teens, dmen sometimes take more time. I don't think it's so bizarre. And it's not like he's putting up more offense than usual.

Tanner Glass was the glue to keep everything together
Brad Shaw being hired has been an overlooked acquisition. A third of the blue line are rookies, one being a 2015 7th rounder, and then there's been JJ. Doesn't explain Murray stalling but I'm optimistic.
