Winnipeg Jets Discussion - 2024/2025 Season

Pigskin · February 27, 2025, 03:36:29 AM

The PP could have put this game away in the second period. The PK on the other hand was very good tonight. I also thought that the 3rd. line had a very strong game tonight.

Now off to Nashville.

Another great win last night. Pulling away from the rest of the west.

How do you figure?

I don't have stats to quote, it just feels like he's playing with more confidence knowing he has a deal in place. That line seems to be clicking more... just a feeling I get from watching.

He's only played three games since re-signing - and has just a single assist.

He looks like the same old reliable Vlad to me, though. He fits in so well on this team.

VN7 has played much better since coming back from his injury. Last 12 games he has put up 11 points. And, he's a big part in getting CP91 jump started. I don't believe it has any thing to do with his new contract.

Second line as a whole has found new life on this current win streak. Perfetti's been great over his last 10.

Pigskin · February 27, 2025, 06:15:06 PM

Second Line in the last 12 games: VN7 11 points, CP91 12 points, NE27 13 points. VN7 1 goal, CP91 5 goals, and NE27 4 goals.

Need to get the PP going. Back to back nights with a 5 on 3 and nothing.

Jockitch · February 28, 2025, 03:32:49 AM

Well Comrie certainly did his part in the Jet attempt to win
Unfortunately, Saros really brought his A+ game

After a home game this Saturday, the team travels east for
a Tues. game, then Thurs. and Friday (Trade Deadline day).
Wonder if Chevy will try to wrap up business before road trip

theaardvark · February 28, 2025, 03:51:03 PM

Team sucks, time for a wholesale change at the trade deadline...

Well, if you looked at only the Nash game, that might be the sentiment. No idea why the PP has sucked so bad. 5 on 3 you should always score.

0 for 12, but still the best in the league this year, is this a thermostat problem?

I remember a success seminar (You were born rich, Bob Proctor), where he explained many of us have an internal thermostat. As long as we are succeeding in our comfort zone, we hum merrily along. When we start to perform outside that zone, either up or down, our internal "thermostat" causes a correction back into the comfort zone.

Were they doing to well, and the pressure of maintaining that success is too much?

Or, have other teams figured out how to defend our PP, and we need to adapt?

Pigskin · February 28, 2025, 08:03:35 PM

I am still hoping we are looking for a second line C with some term left on his contract. VN7 is just not good enough in the COF, and we need a little size and toughness with CP91 and NE27.

Pigskin · March 02, 2025, 04:06:48 AM

Have to get our PP on track. NN62 not playing well right now. 6 points in his last 15 games. Zero in his last 6 games.

Jockitch · March 02, 2025, 03:47:33 PM

Really a tough, extremely competitive, loss
Chances were there, for both teams, but alas, our boys
lost the extra point

Agree that NN62 has been not as powerful as in the first 1/2 of season. However, our captain, who should be leading his wings,
has definitely struggled in this new year.
Just 2 goals and 5 pts total in 14 games

Pigskin · March 02, 2025, 04:05:26 PM

Actually that line has no points in the last 5 games. I thought Barron had a strong game.

Barron had a very good game. Too bad we couldn't have got him a goal late after he drew those PPs. It would have likely won the game for us. If they keep playing like that they'll be just fine.
