    As soon as they are officially eliminated they will go on an historic run of victories. 

  • Stemp is so good that he's on his 8th team what a super star!!!      

  • Stemp is making a Henoc Muamba type tour, just with longer stops in between ...

Best part about the Jets tanking is that it looks like the perfect crime. Letting Stempy/Tlusty/Slater go did not look like tanking. Maybe signing only Matt Fraser during the off season.

They've signed Buff and might sign Ladd back up. Still got Maurice as coach.

sad thing is.....they aren't trying to tank but are.

Leave Helle on the farm with 65-75% of the games. Give Comrie a break.

Play Armia in the top 6 and trade Ladd for prospects.

If you can get a 1st and a prospect for Staf, trade him too.

Stuart is hurt so pull up Morrissey and take a look at him for 6-8 games. Try him out on the PP......... maybe even the PK, I don't know.

Will someone take Thorbs or Burmi for the playoffs? Should get something back for an RFA like Burmi. Cut your losses.

Get Lemieux onto the Moose or will that burn a year off of his ELC? If not, get him up here, Connor too.

Give De Leo a look, he's earned it.

Lol the reason they are doing bad is not because the lack of Tlusty and Stempy

Tlusty I don't miss but Stempy i do. 15g/25a with NJ.

Where we are is perfect, I don't miss any of em' ... in a few weeks after this upcoming killer sked, we could be in an even more perfect situation ... :)

Stemp has like 1 assist in his last 10 games and was playing first line minutes. 

If you want to know why we are losing.

PK sucks. PP sucks. Depth sucks. Team only plays 20 minutes most games.

Do you get your numbers from your arse or are you wearing your tinfoil hat?

Same as stating the other day that Helle had better numbers than 90% of the starting goaltenders.

Stemp has 3G and 3A for 6 points in his last 10 games...

I agree with the bolded.

Scheif has zero goals in his last 10 games.

Nobody ever criticizes him on here though.

"Team only plays 20 minutes most games." You have got to be kidding...Jets may be lacking in talent but most games they give very good effort and a lot more than 20 minutes. You always amaze me with the unsubstantiated comments you put out constantly.

Bunch of young kids with talent that arnt all ready for this yet. Not many players with talent can just jump into this gig. You seem to expect them all to.

Its not just on ice things they need to deal with its everything off ice also.

With the skill and talent we have in our system i see no value in rushing it. We have or had maybe 1 or 2 guys from our bottom 6 the same to the team this year. We are not doing any better. Even tho they are more skilled.

It sucks at times to watch but players like, Schief, Trouba, Ehlers, Copp, Myers, Lowry and BC...  its good they go thru this. They can follow Wheeler, Buff, Enstrom, Stuart, Thorburn.

They learn the NHL from them...  Then their skills take over.

The savour Stemp. That signed a PTO because he was so sought after. 

Stemp will get 20+ in Jersey. That would look good here. Probably lead the Jets.

Gonna be tough to out-tank Toronto. Man they gave it away tonight.

Stempniak has to be the most over rated Jet in the history of Jets 2.0. I don't even think it's close. 

 

The guy would not be playing top 6 minutes here...

 

You know what Stemp on the Jets probably means? It probably means No armia cuz i'm pretty sure Stempniak is a RW.

 

Stempniak is closer to the end of his career than the begining. There is a reason he's on his 8th team now, theres a reason he had to sign a PTO with NJ.

 

NOBODY WANTED HIM. 

 

Yeah he's had a good year with an over achieving NJ Devils team but the guy makes no difference to the JETS.

SWEET! 

Wow, totally forgot to watch.

Hey look at squirrel!

JMO but when the Jets become contenders Maurice will not be the head coach, Chevy could be long gone to.

Man I wish we still had Stuart to play on the PK, would make the tanking so much easier ...

Hey. Look. We're below Buffalo.

 

Getting closer to the bottom.

And he turned out to be a great signing.

Tim Stapleton had a pretty good run here... we should re-sign him...

I hear O'reilly is out for awhile.  Gonna be hard to finish below Buffalo and Toronto.  And Edmonton still in last?  A team could try really hard to be that bad and still not be that bad...with that talent?  The Oilers should lose draft picks at this point.
