Happy Wilson is back.

Well for one the commentators who did the game mentioned frequently the tough part of the schedule the Jets were in implying the reason the Jets why the were playing the way they were and secondly a few posters here posting were we really expecting to win this game considering, again implying the schedule part. Just to name a few. I think Josh Morrissey hit the nail on the head as the saying goes.

That is a bizarre line shuffle.

They only talked about Schultz after he passed away. When he was sick for the entire year he was gone, they left an empty chair Never explained why. Never mentioned Schultz once all season. Then the next season, he joined the Argos radio crew where he worked until he died. Only then, did TSN acknowlege Schultz. Hear! Hear!!

Obviously we are not a great team this season. Last time I checked all of the NHL is working with a condensed schedule. I'm not sure who's making schedule excuses for the Jets, I haven't seen anything like that. Our all world goaltender rarely plays back to back, especially on the road. Yet coach Arneil plays Comrie twice in a row. Wtf was that! Get Milic in there and get valuable experience, giving Comrie some needed rest. Quite often in baseball, when you play a part timer full time, they get injured more often than not....I hope that doesn't happen to Comrie.

Are you sure? Lambert has 1 goal 3 assists in 11 games and Chibrikov has 1 and 1 in 9 games. 2 goals between them, isn't exactly highlight real stuff.

Biggest offseason in a decade was last offseason and they screwed it up pretty badly, this is the most urgent offseason in a decade though, and I really hope they understand that.

I actually couldnt agree more..The boot to the plums the Three got was well needed to kick start things The bolded part....if done...and done right I dont think we even see a hiccup and are right back at the top next yr...sadly if this was the mantra since the end of 2023...we probably win 2024 and were back last yr Biggest off-season for us in a decade...lets hope we get it right...

JT was out in the waiting area when OW came out with his new contract and asked OW, am I up with a smile on his face? Awkward. Sorry It’s going to be a long off season with me hanging around here especially with how the Jets are playing these days.

So we have our first player signing (well extension) in Pokey Wilson. This is exciting as its locking up a good, young player, not a old boys club member.

Wonder how much Cody got.

Looks like there are no crazy short weeks (4 days) for any team this year but in July, we have consecutive 5 days weeks with travel in between. Wouldn't be so bad if one of the short weeks was home & home but they aren't. Losing extra days for travel isn't ideal and we end up playing 5 games in 27 days that month. We have a bye right after though which is good because they'll need it!

Yes, after he died. But I don't recall a word being said about him after he stopped appearing on the broadcasts, same as for Dunigan. Maybe I'm wrong. Broadcasters don't typically pay tribute to people they part ways with. If the individual retires and wants it announced as such, I could see it. But if the departure is at the behest of the network (as might have been the case with Dunigan and Schultz, for all we know), the network is simply going to move on without comment.

I used to love the Thursday games too.

I am in agreement on Walters performance. He has overseen a massive talent decline since 2021. I wanted him gone this offseason as well and am not particlularly happy he is back. That being said, he's who we got, and from 2013-2020 he did a pretty decent job. He needs to get back to that and I will be happy. If he repeats the same failures as the past few years we are in trouble. I am hoping the Canadian mafia got a big dose of reality this season and enter this offseason understanding that the work needs to be put in, and that we must utilize all potential advantages in order to win. Walters can't sit back and not be active this offseason, must make tough decisions on players even if it pisses MOS off, and MOS must be willing to utilize the naturalized import rule, and say goodbye to some of the guys he has favored for too long. If we do that we can start climbing up the hill again....maybe even rapidly. It seems to me that they got too comfortable and forgot that winning is more than running it back.

Yeah Schultz gotta plenty of thank yous and was honored pretty heavily.

AND thank gawd we are not the Riders. What a constant relief that is.

Nice to hear about Pokey! One of our young talented game breakers. This was a must. Really happy with the schedule as well. Not sure why it was so difficult to put out a balanced schedule, but I’ll give the credit when it’s due.

Thank god we don’t play the Riders five times again.

Not for me. I don't want to be stuck in the city on a Friday - I want to be at the lake.

Excerpt from my man JM taken from the Winnipeg Free Press: “Part of being a great team is handling that schedule. You might not feel your best and you might not be snapping around like you do when you’re on your A-game, but you’ve got to find ways to stay in hockey games, push games to OT and obviously get those greasy ones. I don’t think that was something we’ve done a good job here of late.” It's as simple as that to all the 'but the schedule'.
