The Jets are still within striking distance of making the playoffs if they can prevent anymore extended losing streaks, and hopefully with their scheduling easing up and the injuries getting better we can get close.
I think the issue is the quality of forwards and D drops dramatically after the top half. This is something we can blame on injuries I guess, but Chevy has to wear that too.

I thought Winnipeg had a very strong third line before the injuries got them. I don't get the negativity. Maybe the goaltenders aren't great, maybe you need one more puck moving defenseman, but in general it looks to be going in the right direction.
