  1. 10 seconds left in the first and buff pinches and Pavs has to come up with a huge save to keep the game tied.
  2. I think Maurice is watching Helle's confidence and erring on the side of safety when it comes to giving him games right now. How would he take the Blues coming out and putting 3 behind him quickly? If they do it to Pavs, he's seen it many times!!!!! Besides, he isn't here next year anyway. The more I think of it the more I like the move to start Pavs. Give Helle one or both of the next two games in Dallas and Colorado. Come back from the road trip and give Pavs the Wild and two days later Helle agains the Hawks in the first game of a b2b.......decide who plays TB the nexy night based on play (TB is in Minny the night before). What I'm saying is, to help Helle build his confidence, give him the games you think you have the best chance to win and the Hawks because he seems tohave their number. (He could very well be facing this team in the playoffs more than once in his career). The Jets are 3-4-1 in their last 8 games which have all been aginst conference rivals and so are the next 5 counting tonight. The last 6 of these 13 games are agains central division rivals. It's an important stretch of the schedule.
  3. We were out of it by December. The Central is the weakest division in the league this year. I can't believe that if we win tomorrow, we could be 1 point out of a playoff spot. I think Maurice didn't want that pressure on Helle and he will get an easier game like Dallas and/or the Avs and then play Pavs against the Wild.

  5. Should be aware that he ahs only played 5 more AHL games than Comrie. You'd think by 25 he would have got a shot by now? Should also be aware that Comrie was born in 95 and Copley in 92.
  6. So is Helle and Hutch? For the millionth time I said look at him, not annoint him the #1. You think it hurt Copley the other night to get in a game even though he let in 5 goals against us? Too late now anyway, they called up Pavs.
  7. Probably doens't want to put any more pressure on Helle...what if he came out and let in 3 quick goals again? Helle probably getting the next start. Having said all that, if I were the coach, I would have given Helle the start. Also, Helle should have had some competition and not really annointed the starter. I don't think Pavs or Hutch are the right goalies to give him that. He had a pretty good season last year but he did nothing to say he should have been the starter this year. He had every right to fight for it but Hutch isn't much competition. It'll be interesting to see what Chevy does about the goalie situation after the season is over. Should have taken a quick look at Comrie.
  8. Okay Floyd (or anyone) you have to help me out here, serious question....I am looking at Corsi CF% and looked up the definition and it shows Trouba with a lower % than Buff, Enstrom, Morrissey and Myers. I see how they get there numbers by taking shots for divided by shots for plus shots against. Does this mean Trouba is poorer defensively or not as strong offensively or a bit of both? I also notice that the Fenwick and Corsi numbers are close on all D but Myers who has a lower Fenwick number. Does this indicate that a lot of his shots get blocked?
  9. Armia was coming on and got hurt last year. When he returned, he didn't play all that well.
  10. I think I remember hearing that they put all profits back into the MTS Centre and whatnot.
  11. He can file for salary arbitration and then the team gets to pick one or two years and they will pick one year. The same thing the next year he won't sign any contract offered and then he can file for salary arbitration and he'll only have one year left of restricted free agency. This is a worst case scenario.
  12. I can see deals where Chevy might say something like, take Matthias (ex.) and we will trade you a 3rd and Lipon (ex.) for a 5th. They need to stock a farm team too. They should take Stu and send him down to mentor on the farm and eventually moving up! edit ... they can also trade a player they draft can't they? Draft de Haan (ex.) and trade him to us for Petan and Armia (ex.).
  13. I think Raanta would be a great pick up. If I were the Rags, I'd trade Lundqvist and keep Raanta. Bishop would be good but costly and MAF I wouldn't be too interested in from a Jets' point of view.
  14. A lot to pay a guy that will play 3RHD though, no?
  15. The Las Vegas franchise must select one player from each presently existing club for a total of 30 players. The Las Vegas franchise must select the following number of players at each position: 14 forwards, nine defensemen and three goaltenders. The Las Vegas franchise must select a minimum of 20 players who are under contract for the 2017-18 season. I believe they will have the same odds as the 3rd team in the lottery.
  16. Trouba has been our best D man this year. I think maybe Morrissey has been more consistent game in and game out but Trouba is our best D man. Get Tyler on the ice and on the PP scoring goals and trade him before the expansion draft, preferably at the TD, for a young expansion draft exempt LHD (if before the expansion draft) . He makes 4m this year and 3.5m and 3m the next two years so this has got to be attractive to some teams? I wouldn't mind seeing a deal between AZ and the Jets with Chychrun and Myers the main pieces.
  17. So, it appears Trouba was right and he is ready to get 1RHD minutes. He has excelled this year in my opinion. So, if he wants to re-sign, how much is he worth/do the Jets give him...assuming his play keeps up. If he keeps up the stellar play, I would give him 7.25m x 8, 6.75m x 7 or 6.25m x 6.
  18. Yes we should after the expansion draft when he becomes an unrestricted free agent
  19. and yet you and yet you give me a hard time when I said he should have been traded.
  20. Although I will give your buddy button kudos for an article I read yesterday stating that the Jets goaltending sucks and something needs to be done about it. So even he is saying something needs to be done about our goaltending.
