and from looking at the other thread, I have learned that our team is quite injury prone

 

Guess I'll start with Armia being out for awhile.

Looks like McKinnon is practising. Still non contact jersey but at least progressing...and then I lose Eichel. Sigh. Snake bit again on the injuries....

I need McK back.  Slipped to third in my pool.  We have a long time group (about 13 years).  Somehow Im known as "the guy who knows nothing about hockey but always finishes top three".  Its half true! lol

Half true?  So you don't always finish top three?

I have a website I use to pick my players that no one else in my pool knows about.  Sure helps as they almost all pick from the same list, using Hockey News or McKeens.  I always find a way to lead the pool all year and then die at the end due to injuries.  My traditional pattern is falling into place yet again this year, like clock-work.  Johnny Gaudreau, time for you to break a clavicle and the cycle is complete.

 

NHLJets coach Paul Maurice just said he expects Adam Lowry back in the lineup by early March. Should resume skating later this week. Jacob Trouba should return shortly after Lowry. Both will be on big 6-game eastern road trip.

Also, Brandon Tanev is taking contact today. Possibly an option by weekend, but most likely returns next Tuesday vs Nashville.

 

 

Good to see the goalies progressing.  Helle's going to need a rest soon.

"I ice the team that gives me the best chance to win" - Paul Maurice, probably. 

We've haven't had a back-to-back in awhile, only time you rrrrrreally need to start the backup. 

oh so I  guess Hutch is starting on Saturday?

And the last time Comrie started, it was a disaster.

About time the team starts getting healthy. It's almost the home stretch.

okay I guess I asked a dumb question

 

Hmmm...

Interesting Hutch is back before Mason.

and now Carey Price is out indefinitely due to a concussion (likely out for the season)

Now if Patch gets injured or traded that completes the trifecta.

Wow how many times has Matthews been injured this year?

Concussion in December.  Shoulder injury now.  No good for the Buds 

 

Oh sweet baby Jesus best trade deadline news evvvvvva!

 

As good as the Jets are right now, the idea of adding at the deadline is one thing but getting Trouba and Lowry back would essentially be the two best "additions" they could make this time of year.
