Game Time : Saturday 9

Game Story : Jets on another losing streak. 2 down, 2 to go. Fans being held hostage by the play of Drew Stafford

Whose up for a Stafford/Ladd trade?

 

Edited December 9, 20169 yr by FrostyWinnipeg

December and Jets are pretty much out of the playoffs.

But wait... maybe if we play...

Dano-Little-Stafford

Perrault-Copp-Wheeler

Thorburn-Scheifele-Laine

Ehlers-Lowry-Tanev

That will give this team the spark it needs... I can feel it.

Logged in just to see if anyone has called the season over yet.

I said two weeks ago that they weren't going to make the playoffs.

13 wins in 31 games. Most OT/Regular season losses in the league. That was Calgary 30th game today. No excuses.  Our coaching is pathetic

Lots of us said they wouldn't before the season started. Not many of us expected them to be this bad 

Culture of losing is hard to get rid of and its got a strangle hold on this organization.

I thought that it would be another learning year, but i never expected this we are regressing.

Better goaltending wouldn't hurt.

Lol. For the Jets to win the goalie needs to let in 2 or less. Quit making excuses for crappy coaching.  

Quit turning a blind eye to below-average goaltending.

It's that darn sked ...

You sound like a broken record. Okay, we get it. You don't like Maurice. Why do you have to keep repeating yourself on every thread here?

Why? It's about results. Most penalties in the league. Crap PP. Crap PK. Team looks completely disorganized and uninterested.  Line blenders. Just poor roster decisions.  Maurice is the biggest problem right now. It's painfully obvious. They haven't won 3 games in a row in like... it's been years. 

since last season actually, the end of last season

Is Calgary a more talented team than the Jets? No. Are they a better coached team? Yes.

One I look at Cal I see Johnny Hockey and Monahan and if you can stop those 2 you probably gonna win every time.

But then they have a better D and better G.

But I think Ducky was making the "official call" during the season.

Sad interview.

Goalie said they would be a bubble team making the playoffs as the last wild-card team.

 the team house a .904 save percentage. We could get that with pavelec.

The Jets and the Stars have let in the most goals of anybody in their conference. It seems to me like they let in WAY too many goals.   You really should check some statistics before you start beaking off.

93 goals in 31 games for a GAA of 3.00.

Edited December 11, 20169 yr by Ducky

Now that I dig around a bit more it seems that the 93 goals they have allowed ties them with Dallas for the  most goals allowed in the league. It's okay though, Goalie says our goaltending is fine.

Anyone think they keep Deadmonton under 3 goals?

The Jets problem is the some of all its parts, yes the goaltending has been shady at times, the coaching on the team is average, scoring disappears at times, defensive play is keystone cops at it's best and some veterans are not pulling there weight. Maurice blaming the schedule is a desperate coach trying to rationalize why his team keeps making the same mistakes time after time. In the end the Jets are nowhere near the team we thought they may be this year. 

Why? Where did you expect them to be this year at this time? In the playoff hunt?

At the beginning of the season with a full roster and with the hype of Connor and Laine, and Helle signed Matty P, Scheif and Buff but without Trouba i did think this team would contend but the team you saw play last night has all but given up and questions need to be asked primarily the coaching and veterans who are supposed to drive this team. Currently game in game out the three most consistent players have been Laine, Ehlers and Morrissey and that should not be the case.

I did not expect them to be in playoffs and that was with a healthy team.

I couldn't agree with this more. Not gonna talk about Staf or Thorbs but MP has been a disappointment this year and so has Burmi, Buff, and both goalies. Wheeler some nights has had bad games too. I honestly didn't think they would get in and if they did it would be squeaking in in the last week.

Connor, Morrissey, Laine, Tanev, Armia, Ehlers, Copp, Dano, Petan, and Helle had VERY few games under their belts. Thats 10 players and I might have missed some. Most of those players have played well though and I think it is the injuries that have set us back the most this year and it has really hampered the development of some players. Honestly, if the team isn't decimated by injuries, how many games does Thorbs get?

The rational answer would be none but it seems we're not dealing rationally at this point. Take that any way you want ...

I actually said if healthy they would be a playoff bubble team. Do ppl know what that means?  It means they would be close to making it or just missing it. I said nothing about them making it. 

It's fun to blame goaltending but ignoring the crap pp pk roster decisions lack of system dump and chase pp.... 

It's more on coaching then anything.  

Thorburn On the pk. Yup. 

It's not about 1 thing... Pavelec was a problem... he wasn't the only problem tho... 6 years of pavelec... Helle hasnt even been given 6 months and he's what?  908 save percentage?  Pav is 902 in the AHL. 

Ducky do you ever watch a ******* game? Cuz if you really do you will see that while goaltending isn't good.... it's not even close to being the biggest problem. 

Where did I say it was the biggest problem???? I have said all along that injuries have been the biggest problem.  Stick up for them all you want but they need to be better...plain and simple.

If I can't watch a game I PVR all of them. I usually watch each game twice. Have only watched last night's once but from what I saw, goalies need to be better.
