On tonight’s episode, we walk through some major takeaways from a so-so performance against the Chicago Blackhawks. What did the Jets get right against a rebuilding team that still gives them fits? Did the new line combos provide a spark of inspiration, or were the returns a bit more modest? Why is the top line so bad, and will it ever change? How can Winnipeg better allocate ice-time and deployments to cover for some of the top-6 struggles? Was Ehlers able to respond with a big game of his own? Just how impressive were his goals on a night where scoring came at a premium? How else might the Jets solve some of the line-up concerns, especially if they’re deadset on retaining the Connor-Scheifele duo?

KFC is just back from injury, give him a break. 2nd line needs a play maker, Namestakov should be tried there. Every playoffs, they crosscheck Shiff's to injure him and we get bounced.
Why on earth is Bonus refusing to reunite Ehlers-Schiefele-Valardi?? The line was dynamic in every way. Answer: Kyle Connor’s ego.
They weren't that bad. Played worse in Calgary
Kyle Connor has an ego? If I was guaranteed that kind of money I’d be more than happy to mop the shitters out after every practice! Play to win you dogs! The pecking order makes no difference to the fans that feed you. Just win.
They need 55 with 27 and 9 on a line, 9 digs the puck out for a shooter and speedster in 27 not to mention 55 has a shooter mentality as well. then 23 with 81 and 13, 23 making the plays 81 shooting and 13 cleaning up the garbage in front.
Perfetti is a bit too slow for Ehlers, he plays good with nemes, so 4th line makes sense. Its not a normal 4th line tho and they need all lines here next month
I had a different view on Baron and am ready to trade him away, cause he has stone hands and isn’t good. In the Calgary game Baron skated on a 2 on 1 with Monahan. Baron held back for no reason and if he went straight to the net, he would have had a free goal. He is not a positionally sound player.
Connor needs to realize that if this team brings a cup to Winnipeg, he will be a hero for the city for ever regardless if he is on the first or second line. I think Ehlers is just a better fit for the top line and I hope Connor and Monahan can practice and gain some chemistry.
