Comrie starting tonight.

Solid road win. Comrie had a very good game.

Very good.

We made it more difficult on ourselves than it needed to be, but another entertaining game.

4-0-1 in his last five.... waiting for the "Trade ch37 trolls" to start rolling out that stat...

2nd period was a crap show, no shot in the first half of the period, but the only goal.  Lucky.

[Pigskin]

So if you talk about trading a player your a troll. I remember someone everyday talking about trading MS55.

Both goalie's played very well. They had more shots, we had better chances.

4-0-1 in his last five....

It'd be a more impressive record if it didn't span roughly four months.

But maybe shows we should get him in a hair more often.

Helle is one of, if not the most, overworked goalies in the NHL. Might be conducive to spell him a bit more often if Comrie is exceeding initial expectations.

I agree. Comrie has demonstrated he's more than capable in a backup role and that he can and should be relied upon more.

Hellebuyck has been the busiest goalie in the NHL for the last five seasons: https://www.quanthockey.com/nhl/seasons/last-5-nhl-seasons-goalies-stats.html

Most games played by 24 more than the next goalie (Vasilevskiy). Overworked could be an understatement but in any case, it clearly shows how important Hellebuyck is and that he's one of the best netminders in the league. The Jets are fortunate to have him.

[blue_or_die]

Yes, Comrie has basically demonstrated that he can be a capable backup which we did not know to be true going into the season. Let him play more and Helle's game will get better in turn by having some rest.

Not sure what Lowry was thinking, pulling Helli with 4:45 left in the 3rd.

I was also surprised that Lowry took NE27 off the 80/81 lines after they played so well for the short period of time they where together.

Don't mind the first thing - season's over - go with the high, risk, high reward every time.

Very surprised to see Ehlers moved after the early goal.

[Jockitch]

Quite agree on the head scratcher by Lowry - pulling HellB just under 5 minutes ? boooo
Ehlers has to be used with and should be more effective with Wheels and Scheif

He played very well with 80/81 last, even if it was only for 10 minutes.

[blue_gold_84]

Lowry is not head coach material, IMO.

[Pigskin]

80/81/27 very good tonight.

Helli looked very shape tonight.

MS55 now with 22, KC80 37, PL80 24 goals.
