As a human that lives in Manitoba. The NHL and TSN allow me to see every Jet game. I can say that Steve Mason is just not a very good goalie. I'm also very surprised that Hextall is allowing so many younger players in the line up.

How many goalies survive in Winnipeg with that team defense?

Well Winnipeg hasn't really had a good goalie come through yet. Pav never very good. Had some young goalies that were fed to the wolves for a while.

The team as a whole has been allowed to bring along young players allowing them to make mistakes and learn from them. It's showing this year that the players have learnt from their mistakes. Goalie not hung out to dry as much.

Is that a rhetorical?

No one knows. He pulled out some lame "didn't deserve the minutes" excuse, despite Konecny leading the team in shots and scoring chances and not being on the ice for any goals or memorable mistakes against.

Most likely he benched Konecny because he's up his ass about everything.

Irrelevant my son.

If we can't be critical because we don't know what Hak was thinking than we could never be critical.

If Hexy trades Giroux and Couts for Rinaldo and a 7th straight up should we reserve judgment because "we didn't know what Hexy was thinking at the time"

Lol dude, keep enabling those at fault.

Dodging and deflecting.


You can be critical and disagree with a coaching move all you want. Doesn't mean you'll be right about it, or wrong. Coaches don't bench players for no reason.

Not really. I mean he was playing better then he was. He was playing like a back up that should play every 4th game.

The more you make it personal, the more credibility you lose. I don't need to do that.

Oh (frank) I forgot, since I watched the Bos- Phi today. Provorov hit on Marchand was such bullpoop. If they are going to have like tiny pecker heads like Marchand playing the game, they better be able to take a hit from a taller player.

Shoot, it's getting muddy. I should hop out.

Best of luck to you and your takes in the future.

I'll engage again when you say something incorrect. Probably an hour or two.

Between the three of them they should have gotten about 11 minutes total. Laughton should have played 11 minutes..

It's such a sissy way of playing, the game has contact. If you aren't prepared to take contact along the boards. Don't play the game.

It was a direct hit to the head. It's a penalty.
- MJL


His head and body was down plain and simple. Hitting will be out of the game. Players also need to be held accountable for their body positioning. If your stretching to or reaching to get a puck and put yourself in harms way that should not be penalized on a otherwise clean hit.

Yes, his head and body were down and it was accidental. It's still a penalty.

Rule is horrible because of the same thing I said above about turning late to draw a call.
