After another disappointing performance, William Nylander says he's never experienced a slump like this in his life, admits that it is weighing on him, but explains that he doesn't think it's a result of his contract situation. TSN Whatever, thanks for driving up the prices and giving leverage to certain players (and agents) who really shouldn't demand the money they think they are worth but pointing the finger at you and making their case.

Thank you. I'm adding that to my Rider vocabulary.

Where's Buff when you need him . . .

Unfortunately, he frequently looks for that type of hit that distracts him from being in the right position in making a proper tackle and/or play on the ball.

Have the Jets resolved themselves that Petan won't be a regular NHLer? Or can we hold out hope he may be a late bloomer?

Darian Durant is keeping an eye open as he sees a lot of potential spots for veteran QBs in 2019. Should the #Riders be interested? Jamie Nye Absolutely.

On the other hand there aren't many pushover teams in the NHL these days. He has earned this start imo. Lets hope he builds that wall. :)

Ken Wiebe: How close was C Paul Stastny to returning to the #NHL Jets this past summer as a UFA? "At the end, I had it down to two or three teams and (the Jets) were there.” So what made him cancel out the Jets in the end? $$? Whatever, Go Jets Go. :-)

I think it is all about patience when it comes to his development. I'm not sure if I agree with you that he 'stinks' this season but I do think he has definitely regressed a bit. Back in the day this was normal, now we get anxious when young players with little NHL experience don't consistently produce. I'm not giving you personally a hard time about this btw, we all (well at least most of us who don't have other favorite teams) want the Jets to succeed (i.e., win a cup) sooner than later and it won't help matters when our young star(s) are struggling.

The kid is really hard on himself. Most young athletes (even seasoned ones) go through this. Patience. He will bounce back and we will look back at this as growing pains.

My math, not knowing whether a player wants to stay or not and not knowing exactly what each player will command, controlling for all those things, will it be impossible to keep everyone we have now for next season?

Man you're an idiot. Moderators please take care of this.

I actually enjoyed watching Barker working on the CFL telecasts. I thought he brought some keen insights to the analysis.

Not tonight.

#NHLJets are 8-1-0 in their last 9 games on the road. However, they have never won at Pittsburgh. Yet. 0-8-2 to this point. Only NHL city left to win a game at. Rick Ralph I'd say we're due?

It's the coaches fault. Wait a sec . . . Sorry couldn't resist. Oilers/Eskies/Stumps/Flames suck. Go Jets Bombers Go.

I think Lowry is starting to play better which bodes us well. Plus his faceoff prowess is such an important piece case in point last night with two important faceoff wins in our end with less than a minute to go.

Yup Islanders third jerseys are a close second imo.

Happy New Year my Jet family

I'm a little surprised Maurice didn't tap Brossiot's shoulder for tonight.

17-16-3

He sure is making a case for it. Wheeler should also get some consideration for taking a Buff shot square to the boys and coming back to play. Ahhh warrior. :)

Slow offensive start is trying Nylander’s patience. @kristen_shilton I don't know why this makes me happy, but it does.

They still had their odds improved because of losing. I understand the parity argument but still annoying.

I think what stops you from getting behind the Jets is you cheer for another team. And what irritates me about the Oilers is being rewarded with the best player on the planet (and other consecutive 1st round draft picks) for losing. During the Oilers futility years, if the NHL did what European soccer does, the Oilers would have been regulated to playing the Oil Kings. I think some here recognize when the Jets don't deserve something but we really don't feel we need to applaud your Oilers.
