Didn't stay up to watch the end of this one but it was nice to wake up to the end result.

Top line was dynamite.

Not amazing to need a late game comeback against a team like the Sharks, but a win's a win.

Some trivia: Pionk played his 500th NHL game last night. That's pretty impressive considering he was undrafted.

[Jockitch]

Our stars were definitely our ⭐️⭐️⭐️ tonight

Was not enamoured with Fetts play earlier in season as I thought his 7 points in 2 games was masking his lack of grit. However for me,
he has had a terrific December playing tough, hustling hockey. Really showing off his skilled determination in 5 on 5 play

62/17/22, also had a very good game.

Wasn't a terribly exciting game up until we scored the GWG, but I'm glad I was rewarded for staying up way past my bedtime with a dub.

D Coghlan placed on waivers: https://illegalcurve.com/winnipeg-jets-place-dylan-coghlan-on-waivers/

For the purpose of sending him down to the Moose, which likely means Ehlers or Gustafsson is getting activated off IR.

Comrie deserved better
The boys played badly till 3rd. Then a non urgent PP came up with nothing and voila, a bad Pionk giveaway and crap end

Geez we lack depth scoring

Jets haven't managed to win back-to-back games yet this season.

Comrie has definitely deserved better over his last five starts (all losses).

The defensive zone play continues to be streaky, IMO.

Ehlers not happy with last night: https://www.tsn.ca/nhl/nikolaj-ehlers-says-winnipeg-jets-players-need-to-hold-each-other-accountable-1.2222609

"We've got to hold each other accountable for what we're doing out there, and we're not doing that," said Ehlers, who returned to the lineup after missing nine games with a lower-body injury. "We've got some work to do."

Winnipeg didn't record a shot on goal until the 11:28 mark of the first period and were outshot 31-23 in the game.

"We didn't do anything in the first period," Gabriel Vilardi said. "It was just Eric [Comrie], he was the only one playing in the first period."

I think you nailed it.

Yager, will be the Captain of Team Canada.

First line: 51 goals
Second Line: 23 goals.
Third line: 25 goals.
Fourth line: 9 goals.

CP91: 6 goals in 34 games. Chib: 2 goals in 4 games.

Defense: 13 goals total.   

[blue_gold_84]

The fact that third line is outscoring the second line should be cause for concern.

Not having a bonafide 2C helps nothing in that regard.

[Pigskin]

Chib. back to the Moose.
