What a great game. Jets played good for the most part. I agree with your assessment. Although I didn’t think helly played great, I’d say he was at like 65% tonight which is his typical spot for the start of the season. Niku is gone, like I’m talking out of the lineup and not returning. I wouldn’t be surprised to see him traded. He just struggled with gap control and defensive play, yet didn’t make a big enough of an impact on offence to balance it out. I really liked laines game, he’s starting to really put it together and that could be scary. If that line starts to really click, they could all go off. 1st line looked good, thought scheifele had a meh game. Forbort surprised me, nothing flashy but just very solid. Excited to see how that pairing works down the road. I think we need demelo back with Morrissey. Realistically we need a top pairing RD but you’re not going to find one. I’m excited to see how the season progresses for the jets. We need some luck down the stretch here in terms of health.
