TALKING POINTS

• Hate to belabor this point, but how good would these Florida Panthers be with Reilly Smith and Jonathan Marchessault on their roster? Oh what could have been. Ok, moving on from the Panthers.
• Tough night for the penalty kill – it was the first time since December 16 that the Jets have given up two power play goals in a game. (stick tap to Jamie Thomas for that)
• Great night for the power play with two more goals scored. Blake Wheeler’s passing is so precise and the challenge for every team that faces is what you focus on… Do you take away the Laine shot? Fine, you still have to deal with Scheifele’s shot. Take away those two shots, you gotta deal with Wheeler. Oh and Byfuglien is lurking on the point… Good luck.
• That save by Connor Hellebuyck! My goodness. One can argue that it was a major turning point as it was a tie game at that point and the Panthers didn’t seem the same after it.
• That acting job by James Reimer! My goodness. One can argue that it fueled the Jets to pile on a bit at the end of the game with the scoring.
• Hockey is all kinds of fun isn’t it?
