Win their first preseason Game 3 0 over Iowa in North Dakota. De Leo with 2 assists and Comrie with the shut out.

Side note : looks like the numbers on the jersey are similar to the old ones with the moose antlers

Matinee at Teasers ended late...

 

Wonder if Morrisey makes the jump late season?  Will be on the Jets for sure next year

Petan and Kostalek both held out due to being late to practice 

What happened to Harrison? Only 18 games from what I can see.

       

 

9 game losing streak...yikes  I know the AHL teams are not the end all be all  of how the Jets will fair... but that has to be a bit alarming that our prospects/depth can be that bad.

It is the older players that aren't performing....on whole, the youngsters are getting it done.

It's the vets.... the kids are doing good. They are getting no help from vets like Cormier Fraser Hali... Raffl even. 

Was at the moose game this afternoon. Tough loss in OT.  Really good game tho. 3 fights. De Leo scored again. Guy deserves a call up. They went retro with the old 96 moose jerseys. Whole arena went retro. Was super neat.  Probably about 7500 in the house. Good game. Moose deserved the win IMO. Got outplayed badly in the second but 1st and 3rd were really good. Comrie was very good. No question that De Leo Petan and Morrissey are very good.

Moose on a 2 game win streak, call it the Hellebuyck effect. Beat Rockford today 5 2. Cormier with the Hatty. Game was played at 1030 am. "School Day" Game, meaning the  Rockford arena was sold out with kids from school. Cool idea. Moose should do it. 

5 out of 6 points in their last 3 games. Not so bad.

Playing better then the Jets lately...ouch!

Heard part of a Moose game on the weekend and it sounded like Raffl was playing really well.   Can our moose watchers confirm?

i wouldn't mind him getting another contract. This season was derailed by injuries 

Think Raffl is gone after this season. Just too old.

29 is over the hill?

For an NHL rookie? Yah.

Raff hopefully gets a call up. He could be a good bottom 6 player. 

The only concern would be injuries.

So... Stempniak would have been a waste of roster space... but we should call up Raffl and maybe re-sign him

I think Raffl is a feel good story with something to add. We hbe seen stemp and he makes no difference to us. I think raffl could be a really good 4th line player 

Would Stempniak have signed a 2 way deal? Nope. Chevy had a very good PC. Feb 29th on the jets site. Ppl should listen. 

I'm not convinced Raffl is back next year with the moose or jets but I hope they give him a call up. 

 

Sending helle aka their best goalie back down to the moose was a subtle way of starting to tank. 

They probably had a talk with him before sending him down...

Chevy...We're sending you down.

Hellebuyck...What? I'm the best goalie here!!!!

Chevy...Ya, i know but we need a high 1st round pick this upcoming draft. We're trading Ladd and getting some deadwood (Pavs) outta here this summer.

Hellebuyck...That's not fair. I'm the best goalie here!!!!!!!

Chevy...Don't worry, you're our starter as soon as TC is finished this fall. You'll be getting those big paydays again really soon. In the meantime, go down to the farm and say all the right things to the press and starting next season, you'll never see the farm again...I promise.

Hellebuyck...Okay, I guess so. It's not fair. I'm the best goalie here...

This should be in "We Be Tankin"

 

I thought helle was only sent down because he was the only goalie on a 2 way deal
