OT: Vince Carter still plays basketball?

[Jethro Choicebro]

Jets are a good team and were always going to push back hard. I think we defended well despite a bunch of penalties and slacking off a bit.

A bit more energy and should be able to ride this to the finish

I don't know, that 2nd period against the Sharks was pretty awful. Jets outplayed us in that period for sure, but the PK and defence were damn solid for the most part. Not their best period, but not their worst either.

It was a pretty cheap play, the Flames D had stopped playing, otherwise Buff wouldn't have been cruising through there without getting engaged.

This Jesse Fuchs character looks like he could be Rick Ball’s kid.

Man let's hope the team comes out flying

I care more for wins than blowout stat padding, as fun as it is. Just lock it down and secure those points boys.

Would like to see some push back here. Be a dominant team.

Only 50% of his points over all of last season scored 5v5

PP goals and 5v5 goals count the same idk why ppl use that as a negative. Jets have the best pp for a reason. With that said i do think Laine is overrated but the 5v5 argument is a bit unfair since powerplay goals count just as much

Barely saw Tkachuk on the ice. Feels like he didn't even have a shift in the 2nd.

Ya, I had no idea they would both make it and have success so far, I don’t cringe when I watch them. Love it!

That’s not what it’s trying to say. It just shows that he has some holes in his game. He is still an awesome weapon and I’d love to have him.

Maybe if the Raptors traded for him last year, they wouldn't have gotten scared and turtled against Lebron.

20 minutes, boys. Finish this!
