Niku and Copp both in tonight Harkins out

Was so happy until I read that last part.

Yup, Harkins has been playing pretty well, a lot better than Bourque and definitely earned his spot on the team. Welp

Two steps forward and one back is just so Jets.

Is Maurice ****ed in the head or what? He trusted Harkins on the 3rd line and now he's scratching him for a plug who contributes very little, guess Maurice is probably looking at the PK factor with Bourque but who cares the PK sucks anyway.

This coaching staff needs some kind of shakeup, a new assistant coach or something.

Bout time.
I would like Harkins in, but maybe sitting for a game makes sense. I know that a lot of coaches will have a young player sit to gain a better understanding of his role and game.

Is this to showcase Niku for a trade?

There's a report from a Finnish reporter that Niku did and he doesn't sound too happy, gotta wonder if that's why he's in the lineup, to showcase him for a trade to get him out of town.

Can't say I've ever blamed the Jets young players for being pissed, if I had to watch crappy players doing nothing and getting plenty of ice time game after game while I got 5 minutes a game or was watching from the press box I'd be wanting a trade too.
