Would love to pound Kane and the Sabres tonight!!!

would love to see clean wins in at least 3 of the next 5 before the week long break

Buff/SJS/Buff/Chi/Minn

Sweep would be great but winning both against the sabres and then 2 of the Sharks, Hawks and Wild would be OK with me

Maurice said today there's no surgery required for Scheifele and that he looking like a quick healer.

How quickly expectations change!

that's good news...i guess if it is a separated shoulder or small break it's just time needed...

[gbill2004]

Question for you guys: when Scheifele returns, would you keep Wheeler at centre or move him back to winger?

With the depth we have at winder, keeping Wheeler at centre might not be a bad idea.  Could create some scary depth moving Lowry down to the 4th line centre.

Prob move him back.   Really depends on how the team does during this time. 

[Jockitch]

Important faceoffs need to be taken by Scheif ....... however Wheels certainly looks even more prominent roaming at centre than at wing, in these early stages.
Am not a big fan of the Hendricks team leadership magic/image ......... sure he's vocal on the bench & Mathias & Dano got there 1st season goal of late
but ......... I believe in the leaders before he came ...... so out of the lineup if Little, Lowry, Wheels & Scheif are at center.

Maurice also said Scheifele will start lifting weights on Jan 15 and sounds like he could be out only 4 weeks. That?s two weeks less that the initial prognosis of 6-8 weeks.

Nice win against the sharks today.

Nice win against the sharks today.

The beat goes on...

Forsure.....   they looked big, stronge and fast today. It looks like they are starting to look like they arnt trying to keep up with the bigger faster teams anymore. The others are starting to have to keep up with them.

Rolling 4 lines all the time and getting scoring from them is so important.

Liane and Wheels both had point scoring streaks broken in this game but we win 4-1. Wheels was a goal scoring not points. I think he got an asst today.

Yep, there was a time not long ago where we relied 100% on LLW. Couldn't be more different now. When you're saying, "wow, Matt Hendricks sure had a great game", something new is happening here.

Connor and Liane bot sat on the bench alot in the third...  Connor seemed to be squeezing the stick pretty hard today.  Could Roslovic being in the lineup have something to do with that?

Good win, and Hellebuyck was awesome again.

Nice win against the sharks today.

Another impressive win in which the Jets showcase their depth. Hendricks' goal was sick, Perreault continues to roll, and Hellebuyck was once again stout between the pipes. Confidence is as high as I've ever seen it with this team.

BellMTS Place is not friendly to the visitors this season.

No.
