Samberg is night and day better than Stanley.

Didn't see anything great out of Heinola tonight. Just average. I still wonder about his physicality down the stretch and possible playoffs. It's possible Chevy was showcasing him.

Canes comeback was 1/ 200 or less. Two deflections and missed save. In the end, I won't lose sleep about it because it wasn't a conference rival so their point makes no difference.

Morrissey !!!!!!!!!!!

Great to see JoMo playing like a #1D this season. Heinola really hasn't had a fair shake yet in terms of TOI as well as D partners. I would like to see just a couple nights where he plays a larger role just to see what he is actually capable of before he is written off. The kid can play.

Side note

The fact that Axel Jonsson-Fjällby is considered by the NHL as a rookie completely slipped by me.

Nice pickup by the Jets. Way better than Toninato for sure.

"AJF" is closest thing we're had to Brandon Tanev since he left. No, he's not Tanev but something seems to happen every time he's on the ice.

Like you say, nice pick-up!

They aren't trading Horvat for that package. If anything, it would be a PLD swap which could benefit both teams assuming neither player plans on staying with their club

That would make no sense to either club to make the deal you are suggesting. Reports out of Vancouver have them looking for a young D prospect and a first for Horvat. Considering that Horvat is going to be a UFA, my deal makes plenty of sense.

Yeah, the Jets trading the RFA for a UFA is a loss, would be better to get picks/prospects for Dubois then risking Horvat doesn't sign and you've got nothing, might be able to trade Horvats rights for a 4th round pick in June I guess.. lol

Why is Stanley not trusted. Stastically, he is one of the best shot suppressors on the team. He has their last 2 playoff goals, and the building erupts when he beats the bark of someone and does the "victory" celebrations. He looks awkward out there, but he gets the job done. In terms of bottom pairing D, he is one my favorite's in this league. While DeMelo is also very good for shot surpression, he doesn't bring anything else to the table. Pionk>Jomo>Dillon>Heinola>Stanley>Samberg>Capo>DeMello

Jets looking great to start the year tho, especially with Ehlers out. Perfetti is going to be a big part of this team going forward.

That’s an incredibly small sample size of just this year, and there are cracks all over the place as is. He just doesn’t skate or think fast enough to play at this level, and he isn’t particularly physical because he’s just average build for his height

The correct order of performance this year has been: 44>2>88>5>4>no one else has played enough

You don’t overpay for a guy having a contract year after his entire career has screamed “passable 2C”. He’s gonna make bank, and regress hard.

And if the assumption is that Dubois IS signing long term, you have no money for Scheifele. You’ve now surrendered a lot of assets to overpay for a guy nowhere near as good as the guy you have
