The players are still adjusting I think. They will get better but not much.

 

[Sucker Punch]

The IceCaps have our own Green Men.  Only they're dressed up in Republic of Newfoundland colours.

Same, I got Antropov and Buff in one and Buff and Scheifle in another. I had Little for a while, but traded him for Whitney as I only had 2 LW's and needed another.

what do you do when Scheifele goes back to the OHL's Barrie?

Feels pretty wierd getting ready to go to this game when it is 35 degrees outside!!!  Expect to see a lot of Jets fans today which is exactly like every other Coyotes home game!!!

The Jets in Phoenix to play the Jets. Whodda thunk it?

Jets lose 4-1 to Phoenix.  Antropov had a good chance of upping the scoring a bit for Winnipeg when he was awarded a penalty shot due to a previous play.  Tried to deke by going to the far side of net...not good enough.  So typical of the Jets scoring woes this early season.

Funny. Not sure why but I though that while they'd be scored on a bunch, they would able to bury a few themselves. A whole whack of 6-5, 5-4 losses, etc.

drop him for someone lol he looked good in the pre-season so I figured I'd take a chance on him, he hasn't really done anything yet to prove he is ready for the nhl, during the regular season, so far.

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

Well they've gone up 1-0 over Pittsburgh 8 seconds into the game, maybe it's a good sign.

JETS WIN, JETS WIN!!

finally

...and relegate the sens to the bottom of the East.

 

[Beowulf]

I'm glad they got their first win tonight.

If they hadn't, you just know it would've come against the Leafs.

 

[Leafaholic99]

They played a good game, from the parts I saw during the Leafs intermission and after the Leafs game.

Pavelec played very well, but still needs to improve, they're lucky Crosby and Malkin weren't in the lineup or it'd have prolly been a loss.

Wellwood opened the scoring 8 seconds in and Antro got an assist, I think those two lead the Jets in points lol

I'd like to see the Jets do well and all, but this tweet made me LOL

Maybe they are talking about total goals and assists?

KenBeckett Ken Beckett #NHLJets have assigned Mark Scheifele to the OHL's Barrie Colts.

Good for the Colts, right decision for the Jets and Scheifele's career. I think he's shown he's going to be a special player.

Winnipeg free press is reporting this as well.

yeah, he's missed in Barrie.  As disappointing as it may be initially for him, it's for the best.

 

[hockeyfan1]

Nice thumping of the Flyers, er, make that the Flyer goalkeepers,  last night resulting in a 9-8 Jets win in Philly.

Of course, it was also vice versa for the Jets' 'keepers.  Ouch!

Not too many games end with 17 goals in total.  Good game for Antropov, by the way.
