The Unknown Poster Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 I had flashbacks to Selanne's rookie season. 75...76...77 Selanne's record goes to heaven... nah, not likely. But beauty of a game. That was a heck of a line. Laine-Scheif-Ehlers. I liked that Laine kept the shot on the winning goal. Thought he was going to try and pass it back to Ehlers (I think it was). Great shot. Atomic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noeller Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 Felt bad for Hutch, who got hung out to dry a LOT last night, and then came up big when it counted. Whole team rallied in the 3rd and OT. That breakaway save he made in OT, that turned it around to send Laine the other way...that's humongous. The entire team is poor defensively...and I don't know enough to know why that is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unknown Poster Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 They seem to play so loose, no checking. At one point Burmi checked a Leaf and I was like "keep that man, he at least body checks once a game". Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goalie Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 Problem seems to be they think to much at times. In the 3rd they just played and actually dominated. Think PoMo needs to just let them play from the start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty tough call on Buff for I guess being 2 big and then the one on Mathias there was interesting to say the least. Leafs scored 2 goals on the PP. Hutch was pretty good tho. Ya he let in 4 but 2 were on a PP and 1 he made the initial save. Laine wasn't great for 30 minutes nut was incredible for the other 30 minutes. Really like Laine with Ehlers. PoMo should definitely consider that a full time thing. Connor was pretty good tonight... really strong. Stafford is to slow and can't keep up. Myers had his best game of the year. Jets were good tho.... they deserved to win... they were the better team. Agreed. Especially the part in bold. Stafford was terrible last night.

Stafford appears to have lost some speed and strength, his shot doesn't even look good. He has to put the puck in the net to be a useful player and it's not looking good so far.

IC Khari Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 (edited) That penalty on Matthias when he had a breakway???? Brutal call ...

Laine Scheif Ehler;s Connor Perreault Wheeler Tanev Petan Armia Matthias Lowry Dano I would call up Copp or De Leo before calling up Petan. I wouldn't shed a tear for Staf or Burmi. I still think Staf is good enough for the 3rd line until he hits his streak. He's also a good veteran that will help teach the kids the right way to play. But if we could get a decent pick for him now, I might go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Leaf (Matthews?) clearly had his stick across the midsection of Matthias. Should be a call every time. Judd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Dee Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 (edited) This morning, I have the feeling, after watching that comeback last night, that we witnessed something special in that game against the Leafs, and his name is Laine. It truly was a team effort comeback, but it was only made possible by that kid (18 1/2) who is the second youngest player to have scored a hat trick (since records were kept) from 87-88. (Jordan Staal) (also against Toronto) And I absolutely love his new nickname "Hattrick Laine" Edited October 20, 2016 by Mr Dee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jcon, I just think we need a type of center that Petan is and not the game that Copp plays and I think De Leo should be called up when the team is playing well which it isn't...Petan is the type of center we need right now if his D game has improved...give him a shot and see where his progression is...you can always send him backdown.

kelownabomberfan Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 I too would like to see Dano/Petan/Copp up with the big team. We spent a lot of time last year developing these guys and now they are down with the Moose. That Petan line last year with Copp and Armia was dangerous and fast, and very creative. I'd like to see those three reunited. Floyd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if we could get a decent pick for him now, I might go for it. I've had some time to reflect on my earlier thoughts.... I would hang onto Stafford now, unless he was part of a bigger package. If the Jets are close to a playoff spot come January/February, he's exactly the type of player we would target. So, keep him now, wait and see.
