Mitch Kasprick is the “Motown Curmudgeon” aka “Motown Mitch”

Odds and Ends, Thoughts and Questions, from this past week in hockey –

Just so there’s no confusion when I’m spewing my bias, I am a fan of the Winnipeg Jets, Arizona Coyotes, Manitoba Moose, Winnipeg Ice, and all Team Canada Hockey teams.

I am NOT a fan of Gary Bettman or as I call him, Count Chocula.  I am a big believer in the 7Ps. You’ve been warned.

1. Jets:  The Winnipeg Jets played three games this past week going 1-1-1 giving them a record of 34-28-11.  They are 7 points behind Dallas and 8 points behind Nashville and even if they run the table they probably still won’t make it as it looks like that playoff line will be higher than 97 points. 

It usually takes somewhere around 92-95 points for a playoff spot but the Arizona Coyotes padded a lot of Western Conference teams’ records.

1. Jets:  The Winnipeg Jets had a pretty good week going 3-1 but the mood in Jetsville was very sombre after the loss to Ottawa.  It had that feeling like an elimination game.  

The Jets’ record currently sits at 32-25-10 and they are 2 points behind Vegas for the final wildcard spot BUT most importantly they still sit sixth in the Central Division.  Winnipeg still has to reel in Dallas who are a point ahead of them but have 3 games in hand.

NHL Odds – Winnipeg Jets

Winnipeg Jets playoff odds

Let’s face it, sitting on 68 points from 63 games at the time of writing isn’t really where the Jets will want to see themselves. In terms of where their season is going to end, it isn’t really looking too great. Will they make the playoffs? Short of a big push towards the closing stages of the season, it’s looking unlikely. They’re not so far down that they have a great chance at winning the draft lottery, so where does that leave them?

NHL Trade Deadline Day

1. Jets:  The Winnipeg Jets had a decent week going 2-1 and head into today’s NHL Trade Deadline as a team sort of stuck between a rock and a hard place.  They aren’t out of the playoff picture but would still be considered longshots to grab a wildcard spot.  

The Jets’ record currently sits at 29-24-10.  They are 4 points behind Vegas for the final wildcard spot but that is a moot point unless they can reel in Dallas who are 3 points ahead of them with 2 games in hand.
