This is exactly what I’m referring to? What the hell does 40/40 mean if they get out scored every game at 5v5 vrs the line they are matched up against. You want a team full of scoring leaders that lose or a team that wins that maybe doesn’t have the same amount in the scoring leaders. It’s like fantasy hockey is more important than winning to you?

It's amazing how you say that! Lowry's advanced stats are the worst on the team yet you say he's a third line center. That does not make any sense.

As far as Scheifele and Connor go, both are consistently in the top two minutes played. It's inevitable they will be scored on, especially when they are up against other teams top lines. Both also play on the penalty kill. Have you researched how many goals get scored as soon as a penalty is killed when both are on the ice? As that would definitely scew their 5v5 numbers.

When you had Scheifele playing close to 25 minutes a game all season, he was bound to get burned out!

What was Lowry's excuse!
- TheUltimateJet

Ryan o reily is better. I thought that was obvious. To be clear. I said lowry is one of our best forwards every playoffs so please don’t make poop up and spin this like I said he was better than o’Reily. And what point are you trying to make??? Man you come back with poop out of left field that makes no sense.

You think Sheifele and Connor can be 40/40 guys so keep them together but play them less is now what you are saying? So if they can’t be 40/40 guys now, they will be wi th less ice time?

We talking about you or me now?
- Ross77

Talking about you!

You always say I said a bunch of stuff I didn't. One thing is for sure: Ross77 definitely hates theUltimateJet!

Ryan O'Reilly, I believe, correct me if I am wrong, played almost 5 minutes less per game than Scheifele all season. He would obviously have the advantage over him.

Lowry has allowed less goals 5v5 per minute played than Connor and Sheif. Do your research

I never said Lowry has to be our third line Center. There you go again making poop up

Of course they will be scored on??? What is your point!!! My point is simple!!! Follow along, Connor and shief lose the 5v5 goal battle vrs the line they play against far more than they win it so it shouldnt take a marine biologist to realize if you want to win more games than You lose, split them up!!!

Now if your goal is to win your fantasy hockey league, keep doing what your doing and stop complaining about losses or early playoff exits

I don’t hate anybody but I do hate when Ultimate puts words into my mouth I didn’t say and makes poop up. Then when I call him out about it or decide to play his game for poops and giggles he calls me a bully

You are right about that, I do think you are a bully. That's why I engage with you often to stand up for myself.

I am talking about level of competition Ross. Lowry looks great against other teams 3 & 4th lines. Scheifele and Connor get harder assignments. It's inevitable they will be scored on based on level of competition alone.

It's too bad we don't have another elite center to balance out the assignments.

If you think I am a bully look in the mirror. You engage with me, bully me and get mad when I stand up for myself and call you out for it.

Nice try Bully, but I’m standing up for myself this time

Fourth liner? Did you see where I wrote I’m not arguing playoffs? Did you miss that? I could care less what line he plays on in the regular season. He has absolutely been one of our best forwards in the playoffs every year!!! He consistently is counted on for all important defensive zone face offs and penalty kill.

For people that don’t realize, Regular-season games average about 42.0 total hits for both teams prior to overtime. In the playoffs, that number jumps 36 percent to 57.2 pre-overtime hits per game.
Lowry being our toughest and one of the few guys that hit (don’t come at me with Tanev and his soft as feathers hits) is ridiculously counted on in the playoffs.
- Ross77

LOL. All I did was talk about was his usage in the playoffs in 2018. Never mentioned the regular season once.

Your intel is wrong, Lowry doesn’t play against Other teams 3rd and 4th lines

That's a great bullying trick. You portray yourself as the victim in order to victimize me. It's called gaslighting. You are really good at it!

Ross, please show me his QoC charts to prove what you are saying!

LMAO, and you are wrong
- Ross77

So, he wasn't a 4th liner who was? Was it the Ehlers-Stastny-Laine line. or was it the Roslovic-Little-Perreault line.

When Reaves scored the series clinching goal for Vegas, Lowry was on the ice. Seems like a couple of 4th liners were matched up to me.

Keep coming at me, I hope it makes you feel better. I’m confident in myself to not let it bother me.

I have no reason to come at you. I do my best to understand you. Hopefully with a bit of compassion and understanding you and I can become friends. I remember when we met, I thought you were a really nice person. I am proud of you for having confidence in who you are!

What was your point anyway of calling him a fourth liner? I honestly don’t care what line he is on, he has still been one of our best forwards every playoffs we’ve been in. Calling him a fourth liner doesn’t exactly make me wrong? Plus was his total ice in 2018 playoffs less than all other forwards? Or are you just referencing the line up card?

And yet, you keep coming at me. I’ll jump off now Ultimate and wait for the next blog so you can come in and have the last word.

I am taking a screenshot of this conversation, for in the future if/when we have a disagreement, I will always be reminded of your kindness.
Much love my friend!

Stastny 17:24
Little 15:01
Lowry 13:16

Lol Jesus, did I ever pick the right time to leave. Ultimate went full Emperor Chang insane one my absence

Imagine thinking Lowry was bad because he had a hard time matching up with *checks notes* the best two way centre of his generation playing the best hockey of his entire career AKA Ryan O’Reilly

Stastny 17:24
Little 15:01
Lowry 13:16
- BWJumper

Okay, now do who he was matched against

Lowry has been a top 3 forward for us in every playoff game we have played. Losing him wouldn’t be felt in regular season but playoffs!!!! We have no one to replace him!!! If you watched the Jets in the play offs at all and dont see Lowry’s worth I’m not sure what to tell you
- Ross77

I will go as far as saying he was possibly the jets top player in the following game. Top 3 is a massive stretch for a guy who can't produce points. You could say is one of the toughest forwards in this league and I would agree with you. But his 3 career playoff goals, and 10 points this season are a farcry from top 3. If he wanted to make an impact after that Tkachuk disaster, he wouldn't have let Wheeler (who usually steps in as 1C in scheiffs absence) drop the mitts. It was a 4-1 game in the 3rd and Lowry should have been chipping the puck in the corner and attempting to demolish every guy in his path. He could have been the villian the Jets needed in response. His physical impact will always outweigh his offensive capabilities. Jets needed a gutless finish to that game and nobody but Wheels stepped up.
