oh good one

 I can see them winning this one if Hutchinson doesn't start in goal they played a better game tonight than they did last night

A preview of the 2019 Stanley Cup finalists?

but we have like a couple days off that could effect us in a bad way but it shouldn't

It gives us a day for more practice which has obviously helped. It also gives a day extra 2 heal bumps and bruises. I think the Jets take at least one point out of Buffalo and probably two points if hellebuyck plays in net.

Helle should start. Maybe myers is back also. Why go on the road trip if not. Chiarot should sit.  

Myers still wearing non-contact practice jersey?

Give it a few days and maybe not but I think he is yeah. 

Maybe stu in for Chiarot then. Chiarot is a liability even in dominant wins 

I don't mind Chiarot but where was he on the Florida goal? 

So it appears Evander Kane is leading Buffalo.... in penalty minutes.    

Perhaps we can get a few power plays by squirting water on his jersey?

I think I'd sit Postma.  He looks completely lost out there.  Chiarot certainly isn't setting the ice on fire, but I feel more comfortable with him than Postma.

Chiarot seems like he can rise to the occasion when he plays with better talent.  I think Myers can help him. 

Morrissey-Buff

Enstrom-Trouba

Chiarot-Myers

Would be the best D we've iced in along time.

Possibly the best D corps since they have come back....imagine how much better it could be with a young LHD like Ville Pokka for example. None of Postma, Chiarot or Stu are NHL caliber D men and I cringe when they are on the ice. They really have trouble in their own zone. Myers should help big time when he is back and healthy although just because a player comes back from injury doesn't mean he is 100% healthy and I would guess most aren't.

The expansion draft is probably delaying what some GMs want to do with their roster. Chevy might want to trade for a you ng LHD or RHD but is handcuffed somewhat by the expansion draft. One possible solution might be to trade for an experienced D man and go the 8-1 route and protect 5 D men. I think he would have done this already though if he were going to do it.

Going to be an interesting off-season with the expansion draft thrown into the works. Glad it is this year and not next though.

4 + 4 + helle 

That's what it will be unless they trade 1 of Enstrom or Myers Which I think could possibly happen.  Enstrom being most likely since he's got 1 year left after this one and really isn't worth his salary and quite honestly doesn't have a future here.  Think a trade out eeast would help 

Fun fact. Sounds like we will never really know who was left exposed.  Don't think they are making those lists public. Think only Vegas and the Jets for example will know and the only guy we know for sure that was exposed will be the guy Vegas takes 

I think they only get 2-3  days t look over the list and make decisions....bunch of Vegas employees not going to be getting much sleep there I bet.

My hunch is that Myers is not at all being considered by Jets management as a needed trade. They will not put themselves in a place where they will be forced to unload him. Some other existing Jet will take that spot. 

He is a unique piece to the puzzle the Jets management seem to be trying to put together that would be hard, if not impossible, to replace.

I just hope his health doesn't limit his career span. 

After Little, Wheeler and Scheif, does it matter who we protect as far as the 4th forward goes?

Management will protect MP or Lowry but if we had 5 D men that were needing trading, I wouldn't hesitate to go 5 D men and 3 forwards. Let's say Chevy went out and picked up a Fowler or a Ceci or even someone like Michael Del Zotto, would it hurt us that much to only protect 3 forwards? I know it is a pretty big if and probably won't happen but I wouldn't be against it. Most on here would pick MP, Armia or Lowry to be the 4th but really, will it make that much difference?

The 4th forward to be protected is a great debate but I think even management doesn't know how it will shake out yet.

Bet he'd waive his no move clause if Montreal was the destination...  dare to dream.

I don't like the idea of losing Armia or Lowry.  Yeah, yeah tough to make decisions based on small sample size, but there's way too much potential in the 23 yr olds to toss 'em to an expansion team.

Hell, I'd be willing to trade Vegas a pick or prospect on the condition they'd take Matty P.

AND HAPPY 29th BIRTHDAY MATTY!  Sorry my post was against you....lol

If they are taking MP, it had better not be a high pick.
