We need to win these games in our conference so we aren't trying to scratch into the playoffs by a point or two.

 

 

I hope Copp gets more than 5 minutes tonight...

Give Buff a lifetime contract!

Good last two periods.

Ehlers is a puck magnet.

Another very good game by Burmi. He's doing all the tough unglamorous things.

Good game. Great result.

I know Ehler's is a rookie but he has to become more selfish, he's a goal scorer take that shot, agreed Burmi solid 2 way game Pavs made the save when called upon.

I was thinking the same thing. He's always looking for the pass. Scheif was like too, now he shoots.

Burni had 19 minutes of ice time. If he plays like this all season people will ask Frolik who?

Ehlers will learn to take the shot, if he doesn't he'll get "encouraged" by the coaching staff :) He's too good to not figure that out ...

The deke around the D was impressive, but man how did Ramo even let that in?? It was low, near side! No clue how that puck ever gets in the net.

Jets dominated after the first. Out shot Calgary badly after the first.

He either thought buff was coming out front or going for the wrap around. Once his pad was off the post he lost positioning. Unbelievable shot by buff putting it in the exact spot it needed to be.

Buff schooled Wideman on that play and then made Ramo look silly. Tough game against St. Louis on Sunday. Schedule gets real next week.

Actually their schedule was real the day it began imo. Two back to back games in hostile environments and then the pressure of a home opener. 

Yes some would argue the calibre of most teams they played thus far isn't up to par but rarely on any given night is there any freebies.

This young Jet team plays a nice structured game from Maurice, who is allowing them to play fast and take some chances.

Very exciting.

One has to be impressed with the like of Ehlers, who is fast and good on the puck and he will only get better. Burmistrov still displays the skills he has shown before, but now he's all over the ice…in a good way. Smart defensively. 

Scheifele looks solid and plays smart and fast.

And the rest of the usual suspects.

Good game, again.

Burmi had a good game can't score but we probably don't need him to.Still kinda not sold on Petan on the fourth,this kid needs to play.Confident that Maurice will do what's best for him though great coach at developing players imo.

Petan gets first PP unit time. He played just over ten minutes. So he's getting his ice time when the team is doing well.

I wouldn't mind seeing him swap with Perrault a couple of shifts though.

I'd look at swapping Petan with Burmistrov... nothing against Burmi but you already have Lowry and Stafford that can shut down on the 3rd, Burmi probably allows Maurice to play 4th line more

 

Or just leave things since we're winning...

I don't know. Burmi has been so good. Wouldn't mess with it. Petan is a rookie.

Burmi is good one game. Crap the next.

That is not true. But it's an intriguing narrative.

No. It is. You just get a boner thinking of Burmi. He's a good 3rd 4th line winger. Nothing more

Oh I see. That must be it. It's my boner. It can't be that he's been everywhere from good to great so far. But hey if you disliked him before he season began you have to fit his strong play into your narrative.

And yes good 3rd line player. Oh and weird, he's on the third line. And he's good. Fancy that. I guess we agree. My boner notwithstanding.

I don't dislike him. I just don't think he's as great as you make him out to be.

  • Author

How have I over stated him? Someone suggested swapping him and Petan and said he's been good so why mess with it? I suggested maybe swapping him and Perreault for a few shifts because Burmi jas been good.

You're the one that stated I am erect over it. You're the one exaggerating not me.

Why does everything have to be a fight around here?
