Equipment violations are now the surprise story when it comes to penalties. I thought it was going to be faceoff violations, but Tim Peel struck down and decided that visors, tape, and jerseys needed to be in tip top shape. It made for an interesting storyline for sure.
I’m going to just say it, the Jets played terribly. They were off to a great start to the game, dominating the powerplay, even though they didn’t score. About halfway through the first period, the wheels fell off and stayed off. The powerplay went 0-8, which is a stark difference from how it was during pre-season. The upside is that there are still 81 games left to play. The team will need to revisit special teams and maybe some different defence pairings before the game on Saturday.
