Winnipeg Jets Discussion - 2024/2025 Season

[Pigskin]

The hit was late, dirty, and stupid. No room for that is the game.

The team played a 59 minute game. Last minute clearing problem by Schenn and a couple of D zone break downs lead to there 3rd. goal.

VN7 stepped up big time, when 5s went down.

GV13 looked VG for his first game back. A little winded at times but that was to be expected.

3rd. and 4th. line where outstanding all night. 62, needed to get back with 17/22. and 73 plays much better with 36/28.

CP91 is struggling. Needs to get the monkey off his back. Or get NE27 back ASAP.

Helle with one weak goal, but other wise very solid.

The whole second line has really fallen off since Ehlers' injury. I thought Iafallo provided some more energy last night, but they still struggled. I'm wondering if it's a size/physicality issue; the Blues have unfortunately matched up well in this series.

Scheifele out for Game 6

Ugh, that's no good.

So is it Concussion or a rib injury. My granddaughter was watching him on the bench after the second hit, and he was in a lot of pain.

I am loving what MS55 has turned into as a player, his 200ft game is so much different than when I was calling for him to be traded.  You'd think a long term deal wuld allow him to take his foot off the gas, but it seems the opposite.  That said:

MS55 committed the cardinal sin in hockey, he watched the puck and had his head down when Schenn barrelled into him.

Totally a suspendable hit, left his feet, defenseless opponent.  Did Schenn think MS55 would not see him and take precautions?  I think that split second decision process wasn't "premeditated", you would expect a player of MS55's experience not to leave himself open like that.

Had MS55 braced for impact, or dodged the check, its a nothingburger.  Might actually have had Schenn hurt himself.  But MS55 left himself open and vulnerable in a rookie mistake.

The league should give him a game.  It would be appropriate as well if MS55 does miss a game, equitable punishment. Although with MS55 already missing 2/3's of a game, maybe 2 game suspension is better?  They need in person for more than that, right?

*IF* they come back for game 7, if 55 and 27 end up back on the ice, I really like our chances.

Schenn should absolutely be suspended for a game. If that hit had happened on McDavid, he would've been suspended on the spot! Ridiculous

Schenn should absolutely be suspended for a game. If that hit had happened on McDavid in any other series, he would've been suspended on the spot! Ridiculous

The officials in this series have let things devolve in pretty ugly fashion. Tonight's game could be a nasty one and that'll likely depend on what they allow early on.

Whatever it takes - get the road win and send those dirty clowns to the links.

I do not get the refs at all.

They have been so whistle happy with the most ticky-tackey stuff all series, but these launching hits that take out Scheifele aren't even reviewed for the possibility of a major?

Absolute horse-cr@p

[Pigskin]

This is going on in every series. One of the Kings players took and cross check to the throat last night. No call, apparently no one saw it. That also should be reviewed.

[Pigskin]

NE27 sheds his yellow jersey this morning. So, will it be 27/7/91. And if you do that, who plays (C) between 81 and 13, Gus, Toninato, or Yager.

Just hope they leave the 3rd. and 4th lines as they were last game. 62 plays better with 17 and 22. Tanev is a very good fit Barron.

[theaardvark]

Can Iafalo play the C spot?  It would be a huge stretch to put in Yager, but it could also be lightning in a bottle.  Probably Lowry or Gus.

[Pigskin]

One group reporting 81/7/13, 27?/17/91, 62/36/22, 73/21/9. D will stay the same.

[Pigskin]

Toninato is in for tonight 6'2" 201, good in the FO circle.
