I wrote things, a lot of it based on the most common questions I had for the mailbag:

"The Weekly Review is here. The Jets are slipping, the Moose are rising, and three big questions are defining the season: Toews, transition/speed, and how to fix this roster."

Let me hear your thoughts and questions!

  1. You could have summarized it by just saying “Stanley has more icetime than Scheif this year”…

  2. Do you think the rule about having to be 20y/o to transition from chl to ahl might be hampering development?

    Walton is absolutely dominating which is great but in his few games with the moose last year he looked understandably a little unsure of himself and I wonder if he wouldn’t benefit from having the chance to get used to the compete and pace. If he’d started the season with them he may have found his game by now and might be NHL ready sooner.

    The jets absolutely do need to get lambo, heinola, ford or gus up. What’s your reason for leaving Ford out of that picture?

    Should the jets be using Nyquist differently? Some nights he really seems like one of the best forwards outside of the top line

  3. Morrissey — DeMelo/Salomonsson

    Samberg — Pionk

    Heinola — DeMelo/Salomonsson

    With these suggested pairings there would be 5 small defensemen – and only one physical d-man (Pionk). Don’t really know if this would be good or bad, but it would be an interesting experiment.

    Not utilizing Stanley, Schenn, Miller, and Fleury would certainly be enticing.

  4. Loved the write up as usual. Thanks for attempting to give clarity about the Toews situation

  5. I think Toews is fine but 3-4C instead of a scoring role, that’s never really been his strong suit anyways.
