Goalie

And that's what it comes down to, several more guys should have been there, i mentioned Housely and McLean as 2 others including Arniel but... they couldn't make it. I'm sure they all would have loved to play here but their current jobs take precedent i suppose. Can't have every guy that played for the Original Jets in the line up, cant make everyone happy, personally, I thought they did a pretty damn good job. Would it have been cool if a few other guys who weren't there were? You bet, but for the most part, i think they got the main ones, at least the main ones who didn't have prior engagements elsewhere.

Maybe the Moose will have an outdoor game one day, AHL does it also so perhaps they will honor guys like Keane then. I don't know.

Maybe for a season or 2 but Bottom Line, he's an assitant coach in the NHL and wouldn't have come. Just like Housley and Paul Mclean should have been there also but are coaching in the NHL.

Maybe if the Moose had an outdoor game, but Mike Keane was in attendance for sure, he's part of the current Jets staff. I would probably lean towards NO tho, because quite frankly, for as good as Mike Keane and Scott Arniel were when they played for the Moose, neither did play for our PRO hockey teams, and i get the AHL is considered PRO but... in reality, this was about "Winnipeg Hockey" in the NHL and WHA. Not about a Minor League Team like the Moose. To be honest, when i THINK MOOSE legends, or guys of that nature i think more of Cory Schneider, and guys like that... Fedor Fedorov even lol, Rick Rypien even but the problem with that is they were all Vancouver Canucks property. Arniel? Isn't he busy coaching somewhere and Keane? Well, he might be from here but I'd say he's best known for playing for a team like Montreal.

He will. Sooner rather than Later also. Believe that for sure. Kid is very good, plays fast and plays the style of game the Jets like.

He's struggled this year but... the bottom line is prior to these 5 games, and perhaps it's because he's a very streaky type of player, when Stafford scores, it comes in bunches, he'll go 10 games without a goal but then go 5 or 6 in a row with a goal, but prior to this year, he's been pretty good. I mean, he is an NHL calibre player for sure, it's not like he's sucked his whole career, that's just not true at all, He's streaky. Burmi and Connor was the 4th line? Why cuz Sportsnet said so? Lowry and Tanev were the 4th line, they were just matched up against the mcdavid line later on... but Burmi Connor were and has been the 3rd line, Sportsnet really doesn't have much of a clue when it comes to the Jets and that was definitely made known during the game.

Ok so we lose 2 0 instead of 3.

Stafford in his own zone is a mess. He had 3 or 4 chances to clear and didn't resulting in a penalty to the Jets. Stafford really struggled yesterday and has been for 5 games.

Lowry should be a 4th line center. Hes Big he's physical but he can't score. Perfect 4th line center. Copp has more skill than Lowry. Scheif Little Copp Lowry Perreault for Little right now but when little back... Perreault should move back to the wing where he's more effective Laine Scheif Ehlers Perreault Little Wheeler Connor Copp Dano Tanev Lowry Armia YuP no Mathias or Stafford or Burmi cuz they aren't needed

The history or heritage of Winnipeg hockey was honored. You know what... guys like Hawerchuk or Teemu or Steen or etc might be honored by Arizona but they never played there... maybe Steen did but... bottom line those are Winnipeg hockey icons. You think they'd play In an Arizona alumni game? Nah no chance. What they did happened with Winnipeg. Minnesota did it right... north stars moved to Dallas... they got a team back... called them the Wild... had an alumni game and both North Stars and Wild alumni were represented. It's hard tho for the Jets cuz... what? Should Chris Mason or Antropov been here? No. Kovalchuk? No. He has nothing to do with Winnipeg or its hockey history and this is what it's all about... forget the name Jets... it's irrelevant... they could be called the Moose but when you are honoring the history of hockey in Winnipeg... it's WHA... it's 80s... it's 90s. ... it's Jets but more importantly it's about Winnipeg.

It shows that coaching might be an issue. Laine made a bad play... Oilers scored. He was kind of benched a bit. Buff plays like crap... Stafford plays like crap... they get more ice time. It's an issue and sends an interesting but confusing message. Stafford and Lowry on the PP also sends an interesting but confusing message. Coming out flat every 2nd period is similar to a football team who doesn't adjust at the half. I like Maurice but at times he takes to long to adjust and really favors veterans even if they are struggling big time. But I guess I'll steal a quote from Warren Buffet on success... you can't produce a baby In 1 month by getting 9 girls pregnant. What that means Is success takes time and patience. I don't think Maurice is on the clock but at the same time if nothing improves... pp pk etc by game 25 30... then perhaps we can talk about it a bit more.

Similar to Ehlers I'd say. Had his best game vs the leafs. You also have to keep in mind that he's playing with Burmi.

Buff has been the worst D man every game. Myers was good last game and this game. Goaltending? When we don't get 1 goal gonna talk goaltending?

Was one of the better lines. Lowry is technically 4th line tho.

That's outdoors for ya. Jets actually played well in the first and probably 5 minutes of the 2nd and 10 minutes of the third. Couple bounces and that's that. They weren't awful but not good exactly. Oilers had some crap bounces too tho. Puck was bouncing out there lots tho.

Talbot is a good goalie and going back to last year... he's had the jets number. Bouncing puck tho and underperforming vets like buff and stafford don't help

Just a terrible effort. The team didn't even score 1 goal.

Puck bouncing like a beach ball out there but giving up a short handed goal was brutal. Can't judge the team on this game at all but buffs been pretty bad every game so far.

Interesting that they might delay the start time of the game tomorrow. Why? Because it might be 2 sunny. Odd considering a game was played in California

Isis wants trump to win. Russia wants trump to win. Wikileaks which is run by a foreigner wants trump to win. This is why trump can't win.

Really fun game to watch. Really cool. Bunch of guys who couldn't play due to injury like fuhr McSorley and many others also in town. Cool to see Walter Gretzky also in the stands. Massive 50 50... winner took him 160 K.

Another 2 Apples for Roslovic tonight in a 4 2 loss to the Marlies. 6 points in 5 games for Jack.

Teemu being tripped for a penalty shot with 3 seconds left was definitely scripted

Oh and the alumni game was hugely scripted lol. Jets win tho.

Honoring the WHA and 80s is fine. Honoring the 90s is interesting. Ya Arizona should just give us back our history but... I get why they haven't
