I've been binge watching It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and this episode gave me inspiration for tonight's game theme which is the 3rd annual South Asian Heritage Night. Don't blame me, it's all Frank's doing.

Chibrikov with his 2nd. 1 0 Jets. 

Chibby is looking like a kid who doesn't want to go back down.  How to keep him though when Ehlers is back?

Trade Appleton

To who?  I think Ehlers has more trade value, but what do I know.  Apples, Ehlers and Stanley - package deal for Utah's third rounder in 2026 lol...

3 games 3 goals 🫨

Do the Jets want to burn his first year of ELC?  I don't think they're going to.  

Is it me or are there quite a few empty seats?

What are the rules around that again?  I don't pay enough attention to fully grasp the intricacies of these contracts in the new NHL....

Was under 13 last game and it was BOS

Everyone is down in Phoenix now...lol

I went to a game one time in Glendale and there were more Manitoba plates in the parking lot than Arizona plates.  No word of a lie...

I think it's a total of seven or eight games before the first year the ELC is burned up.  And that's throughout the course of the year.  

 

So if it's "burned up" what does that mean exactly?

Didn’t notice it as much for the Bruins game.  Guess people don’t want to venture out in this brutal cold.  Can’t really blame them.

It means that he'll have 2 years left on his contract regardless of how many games he plays this year.  I believe that's also a cap hit for the team.  It's minimal but every dollar counts under the salary cap era.

I

I still cannot believe the Jets only have four shots on net through 30 minutes of play. 

I like the score, But kind of feels like we're flirting with fire

no change in scoring but considering they've kept Vegas from scoring after 2 I consider that an accomplishment

Might be on to something but prob get a D back. Maybe Pittsburgh and Marcus pettersen. .

Saturday warm and Montreal and Laine. If that’s not a sell out….

I’ll be there.

Ahhhh Stanley...

Vegas isn’t a draw here in the regular season it seems. I went to a game last year vs Vegas and it wasn’t sold out. It’s also minus 30. 

Shoot the damn puck.  Vegas does… and scores.

Appleton, Kupari and others are passing up shots to make ill advised passes.  3rd and 4th liners can’t be making those mistakes.

Rocket by JMo!

Anybody here think that if Stanley and Heinola weren't high draft choices they would be toast already? Helly saving us this game..

Edited December 13, 20241 yr by bb1

I'd give Heinola a pass.  

Still have no idea what they see in Stanley.  

Vegas gets away with a ton of hooking and grabbing.  Their one penalty was hooking, but they could easily have 5-6 more…. That were more obvious than the one that was called.

So of course the Jets get a late penalty.  FFS
