@San Jose Sharks

This is painful to watch..



The Winnipeg Jets, who had their best start in franchise history through 12, tied a franchise record through 20, sat at the top of the central in December and as recently as just 8 weeks ago, still had a nearly 96% chance at making the playoffs, have since seemingly fallen off the face of the earth as they are now holding on for their dear lives simply holding onto a wild card spot just 2 points ahead of the Calgary Flames dwindling their playoffs chances to now just 61% in a Western conference that hasn’t exactly been a powerhouse. Losing to a last placed San Jose Sharks team and hearing contradicting answers from Mark Scheifele and Dylan DeMelo in regards to the game style they need to play, its got me beginning to question if this hot start the season could become a complete disaster for Rick Bowness and the Jets. I cover it in todays NHL hockey video!

  1. Scheifele has never been a team player. It’s always about”him” and gets more evident when the team struggles and reality sets in that they can never win with this leadership group.
    I’m sure mgmt will make necessary changes ASAP unless they want to get canned too.

  2. Why do these teams care so much about getting into the playoffs when the reason why you’re team is good has nothing to do with playoffs? It’s about playing the best hockey as often as possible while utilizing your assets (skilled players) to their best potential. Those teams deserve to win and most likely will.

  3. Say what you will about the Jets, but you have to admit that they have a lot of empathy for the teams that are really struggling and are willing to help those teams by handing them the wins that they so desperately need.

  4. I knew the Jets were overachieving and wouldn't finish first but didn't expect them to fall off this hard either. I think one of their problems is lack of depth and they are gassed for the 2nd half of the season.

  5. I've cared deeply about this team since 2012. But this team needs a re brand, I hate seeing this team struggle I really do

  6. When a coach goes as far as to bench players you have serious issues that need to be taken care of. These are grown men and not children to be punished in such a manner. If you think these guys are losing on purpose you would be sadly mistaken. Time to lose the power tripping boss/employee BS and get back to having fun which is what sports is all about. The Jets could still win the Stanley Cup and shut all you whining nay sayers up once and for all. Go Jets Go!!!

  7. Bowness' strategy as a coach has always been to rely on the star goalie and hope for the best. This guy is a bum.

  8. ever since schieffle ran that habs player after the empty bet goal, I've questioned him as a person and this adds to my theory that he's not a good personality

  9. It's not surprising when your top players don't give 100% every shift and don't work as a team, without that team cohesion shit will fall apart real quick as we have witnessed with the Jets time and again. Remove the problem players ASAP.

  10. Get rid of 55, and 28… They want to be cute with it, they can be cute with it on other teams. But right now, there are players on that team that are trying, but aren't given the time or line they need to succeed.
