Great game last night; statement game. The whole team was flying and all lines looked great. A couple more like this and the team will start rolling. They will really miss Morrissey but Beaulieu looked ok in this audition.

They have been pretty good so far. Weird loss last night but Helly took one off the mask and it changed the game. Jets continue to get into penalty trouble. I hope they can get a handle on that soon. Been impressed with Beaulieu. Scheifele seems to be fighting it a little.
I will say I’m not a die hard Jets fan but I see that the problems there begin and end with Maurice. One need look no further than Laine’s season. That’s your job Paul. Get through to your players, get the most out of them, put them in a position to succeed and make your team better. Epic fail. He should have been fired in January. The penalty issue is his fault too. He’s just not a sharp guy. This dynamic roster is wasted on him.

Tell me about Trouba. His freshman season was wonderful, then not really much for a while. But this year getting some pp he’s got me thinking again he could be great (but I still think he is being traded). Will he always be the good d guy who doesn’t get much pp, or will it continue?
His recent uptick in PP production is probably due to injuries to Buff and Morrisey. I believe he is behind them on the PP depth chart. The Jets are just a good deep team and he’s a part of that. I don’t think he’ll ever be a Burns or Rielly. Perhaps on another team. He’s a solid contributor in multi-cat leagues and is a great #2/3 fantasy D. I don’t know that he’ll ever be more.

What is the deal with Connor Hellebuyck? I would say what the F...., Hellebuyck in a rhyming way, but hell. Are these numbers the new normal for him (i.e. was last year an aberration)?
Goalies are a funny bird. You never know what you will get sometimes. Craig Anderson has been known to have one good year then a bad one, then a good one, and a bad one..... you see where I am going with Anderson. Maybe Hellebuyck turns out the same way. Maybe next year he's lights out. Who knows. He was playing for a new contract last year too. Lots of questions and not many answers. Sorry.

Maurice is a good coach. You don’t get that kind of coaching longevity by being that bad. I’ve wondered myself if this is as far as he can take them. A more defensive minded coach might help but I see a team that needs to learn a few lessons since their team D has been atrocious all year. It was last year to an extent but Hellebuyck saved them. He’s faced the most shots of any goalie in the league. That should tell you what the jets need to fix. Maybe another staff is the answer. They might be too buddy buddy with Maurice. This is one of the youngest rosters in the nhl. Maybe they need another coach to grow up.
