Marc Denis and Pierre Houde both say they're surprised hooking wasn't called.

[jennifer_rocket]

Was there not a penalty call on that???

[BigTed3]

I would have said more interference by putting the stick in front of him but clearly a penalty that wasn't called.

[jennifer_rocket]

Danault down the tunnel. I predict Jordan Weal is about to become our new center! 

[H_T_L]

I'll give odds they play Weal in Dano's spot.

Could be Domi, although I'd love to see JK there now.

[BigTed3]

Danault back.

[BigTed3]

Now Hudon hooked down and crowd booing.

[H_T_L]

Dano just can't draw a call.

Looking like a classic "refs shut their eyes for two periods then call a bunch of penalties against us in the 3rd" type of game.

I know this won't sit well ... but only one team takes less PIM per game than us, the Jets.   We're the 2nd least penalized team per 60 mins this year.

[H_T_L]

Real sloppy play.

[H_T_L]

Another clear path to the net.

Sure, it's mainly the non-calls and inconsistency that's bugged me this year. It usually is.

Methinks what Ted is saying is that We should be getting more PPs.

I was actually shocked when I looked up the stat earlier today ...  Jets 164 PIM in 26gp, us 165 in 27gp

sure ... there we're even too ... 76 PP for, 77 against ... we're tied with 3 teams for 76 pp and 5 teams have had less.    

[H_T_L]

Slow and sloppy pace to this game so far.

[HabsAlways]

Armia showing some puck confidence

hang around and it will get slower and sloppier.

 

[claremont]

I need to see more of Fleurys play but I do like his physicality

It already looks like they're skating in mud

[H_T_L]

Can we close out a period without giving up the late one??

But we are 16th and smack in the middle in terms of PIM differential and we have only 1 major penalty the entire year, whereas other teams have many more, which contributes to their penalty minute totals without actually yielding powerplays. And of course two things that aren't captured by PIM stats:

- how many should-have-been penalties were NOT called

- when in the games the penalties were called. Don't know if this stat is anywhere, but would be curious to know the penalty differential when the score is even or one goal apart... some of the calls come late in games that are already decided and they mean less.

Clean defensive play from Sanheim on the Suzuki break but Konecny came in with a late hit that should have been penalized after.
