Winnipeg Jets Discussion - 2024/2025 Season

Once Samberg comes back, Stanley will back in the press box. Miller and Fleury both have out played him. 

Yes, but that's not the point.  They want to develop Stanley.  Yes, Miller and Fleury are better now, but Stanley has more upside and is more long term.

Ville and Stanley are the future.  Miller and Fleury are placeholders.  Doing a great job, but not permanent solutions. 

Not yet.

Salomonsson coming up

52 24 6 are nice third pair fill in role playing guys that you need due to injuries, but they aren't the future.

Miller is signed with the Jets for the next 2 years at $1.5 M per He's not going anywhere. 64 and 14 both have a lot to prove before they crack this line up on an everyday bases. Stanley is far to slow, makes a lot of mistakes in the D zone, and takes to many penalties. He has a long ways to go.  Heinola, if he can stay healthy has some upside.

Effort was maybe good enough but certainly gave up a lot of odd man rushes. Officiating really was questionable

Some costly miscues in the last few games for sure. They gotta get back to playing strong in the defensive zone and not force offense.

The refs were brutal on Sunday.

Ehlers placed on IR, F Lambert called up from the Moose: https://illegalcurve.com/winnipeg-jets-place-nikolaj-ehlers-on-ir-recall-brad-lambert/

Good opportunity for Lambert, IMO.

Perfetti-Lambert-Vilardi
Niederreiter-Lowry-Appleton
Barron-Kupari-Iafallo

Morrissey-DeMelo

Stanley is 26 and on his 7th year in the organization (2 with the Moose and 5 with the Jets).

This is him developed. He is what he is and it suuuuuuuuuucks.

[Pigskin]

Haven't heard much on NE27 injury. But, I do like bring up Lambert.

Need to get the PP back on track, and stay out of the penalty box.

Arniel said he's hoping for the 7-10 day range.

[blue_gold_84]

Well, something isn't right with this team lately.

I thought Lambert looked comfortable out there last night, but that rings pretty hollow with how the game went. 11 SOG through 40 mins. isn't going to cut it, and that's exacerbated by the poor defensive play.

From the wagon to the struggle bus.

[bluengold204]

3-7 in our last 10.  Our lucky start is long over and back to mediocrity at best.

[blue_gold_84]

"Lucky start." LOL

What a braindead comment.

[blue_gold_84]

On the road again. Not sure how this one will go tonight. First thing is to get back to playing smart in their own end, IMO.

Projected lines/pairings tonight vs. BUF:

Connor-Scheifele-Vilardi
Namestnikov-Lambert-Perfetti
Niederreiter-Lowry-Appleton
Barron-Kupari-Iafallo
Gustafsson

Can't say that I am pleased to see Stan paired with Ville again
Really hoping that Lambert has another, IMO, very positive game.

Watching with eyes on Sabres, Dylan Cozens, who is not showing good numbers but he is a 2nd line center candidate, who for me has terrific upside. 

[Pigskin]

Good energy by the Jets tonight. 81/55/13 all had a very good game. Helle was great when he needed to be.

[blue_gold_84]

Nice that they found some offense last night, but the defensive zone play still concerns me.
