I tell ya Jstew.

My Believe in Blue is stirring up again
the 6 wins in a row have been largely unconvincing, against the shittiest teams in the league.
much like the 4 game streak to start the year, this is smoke and mirrors

in the past 8 games, for example, gave scored 17 goals, and allowed 17 goals.
mostly at home, mostly against shitty teams.



/though the record with both Edler and Tanev in the lineup is 9-2-1. that's flat out solid.

Just when I thought maybe the Devils could get 3 consecutive wins. Oh well, back to tanking in a year with no guaranteed franchise cornerstone prospect.
I'm really wondering which team deserved to win less last night, the Leafs or Canucks.

Oh well. 6 Canadian teams in playoff spots in early January. Pick up the fucking slack, Winnipeg!

lol - Kinda reminds me a little of Missile Command where you try to destroy the incoming missiles that are trying to blow up the cities you are entrusted to protect.

and a bit of a donnybrook at the end...



...maybe if the Jets had shown that much fight during actual play of the 3rd, they might not have lost

There's just something off with the Jets, they need to fire Maurice and get somebody new behind the bench.

Happy with the W obviously, but this was a great exam of how frustrating this team is. They were absolute shit in the second and got down a pair. Lucky for them, Winnipeg is a bad team too. But I can probably count on one hand the number of times this season they've played a full 60 minutes.

I met Paul just after he was fired by Carolina. his son and mine played on the same team. He was a really nice guy, very easy to talk to. but yeah, I agree. during the 3rd as the wheels were coming off, they showed him behind the bench and he just seemed to have a look on his face like he had no idea what to do to stem the tide.

I hear ya. maybe this is the type of game though that can get things rolling in the right direction.
