I know I’m harping on this too much, but I just don’t understand continually putting Namestnikov at 2nd line center.  He’s not good at face offs and not putting up points.  If he was at least doing one of those things, you could overlook the other…. But he’s not.

The MOS effect

I can’t watch this team anymore. The needs are obvious but management can’t or won’t do what is necessary 😢

Chevy just wont react quick..he is always measured in his reactions..right now is probably just not a good time to add anybody..other teams know we are hurting...i hate to say it but Toews situation and losing Ehlers and not getting any kind of decent replacement is killing us...is Perfetti missing Ehlers that much? We just can't score...

Remember, Chevy promised Helle and Schief that he was going to keep giving them a competitive team 😂. They shouldn’t have believed him 😳

Betting on the wrong guy (for example Cole Prefetti) and not getting suitable replacements is a fireable GM offence, except here in Winnipeg it seems.

We have an amazing offensive first line. And an offensive collection of 4th liners rounding out our forward group.

Which has been the history of Chevy since day 1 when he declared no impact free agent players wants to sign here. We've had one GM the entire life of this franchise. Just like the Bombers, wouldn't it be interesting to find out what someone else would do?

I've been thinking this for a while and have to say it: DeMelo. He's not the sole cause of the team's issues, but last night he turned the puck over in our own zone right before the St Louis goal and then took a dumb penalty at the end when we were trying to tie it up. I used to be surprised that he has such a high plus/minus rating but then realized it makes sense because you don't get a minus when you're sitting in the penalty box.

20 other teams would snap him up.

Next year is our year territory?

Yeah, the Jets have issues, for sure, but DeMelo isn’t one of them.  And the penalty he got with just under 3 minutes left in the 3rd was complete BS.

Jets should retire #14 as a hint.
