Wow, the Avs are shitting the bed here in a very Loafy fashion

They were up 2-0 in the first, now trailing 4-3 in the third

In other news, the Rangers are playing Igor Shesterkin in net

Rumor is the Leafs are interested in Georgiev

Cheers.
How strong are the Jets ATM?
I see that they have a very similar record so far this season.
23-16-4 compared to the Leafs at 24-15-5.
3 points behind with a game in hand.

For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

Strong enough, they've lost three key defensemen, Byfuglien, Trouba and Myers

To trade ( Trouba ), free agency ( Myers) and retirement ( Byfuglien )

So they aren't as strong as they have been over the last few seasons.

They're kind of like the Leafs now, they are loaded up in the forward group, thin on the back end.

The forward group being Sheifele, Laine, Wheeler, Connnor and Ehlers.

They rely on their goalie, Hellebyck, much as the Leafs rely on Andersen.

The Jets actually have more star forwards than the Leafs do

Laine is the Jets Matthews

Wheeler is their Tavares

Connor is their Marner

Ehlers is their Nylander

The Jets then have Sheifele, which the Leafs don't have an answer for.
