I see the Jets as a team with very good young talent. Where they've improved the most IMO is they finally have a kid stopping the puck in goal. Also Byfuglein seems to be reined in. Playing within the team. He's always been a very good player but in the past he seems to go astray. He's playing focused and within the team structure making him and team even harder to beat. Hope we see you in the finals Woodtoo.

Hoofed, I'll take Matthew Tkachuk anytime. Sure, he does silly stuff at times. But he hands for more than just fighting. Did you see his goal in the shootout? Freddie is a rock in goal and he beat him cleanly. And if Matthew irritates you, just wait til you see his brother Brady. Draft eligible this year and my favorite player of the draft eligibles. I saw him for a week this year at the Summer Showcase. He doesn't have the scoring skills of his brother but man he is even more intense and still a very good player. Just wait til the WJC. USA USA

NHL pursuing revolutionary player-tracking systems
Technology would be camera-based, removing need for uniform chips
MANALAPAN, Fla. -- The NHL is working to invent revolutionary on-ice player-tracking technology it hopes to implement for the 2019-20 season or, potentially, as early as the 2019 Stanley Cup Playoffs, NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman said Friday.
The technology would not require tracking chips on the players, instead relying upon camera-based technology, Commissioner Bettman said Friday at the conclusion of the two-day Board of Governors meetings.
"We're in the process of working with some technology companies to invent technology that doesn't currently exist, because it's more complicated to do this than in any of the other sports for a whole host of reasons which relate to the attributes of our games, the physical contact, the sticks, the speed and everything else," Commissioner Bettman said. "But we're committed to doing it and we're investing a fair amount of money to do it."
The NHL has worked with companies on player- and puck-tracking technologies in the past, including at the 2015 All-Star Game in Columbus and during the World Cup of Hockey 2016.
"We learned that we can get the technology to work but we needed it to work better so that it could be scalable," Commissioner Bettman said. "Doing it for 16 or 17 games in a two-week period in one building [at the World Cup] is a lot different than 1,271 games in 31 buildings."
He said the NHL will roll out testing of the new technology at future events, including, perhaps, at the 2018 Honda NHL All-Star Game in Tampa, Florida.
"It is a work in progress but we're very confident that we're going to get this to work," Commissioner Bettman said, "and the amount of data that it will provide in addition to creating opportunities for broadcasters to use it in real time is pretty exciting."

Sidney Crosby will face Auston Matthews for the first time this season and fourth time in the NHL when the Pittsburgh Penguins play the Toronto Maple Leafs at PPG Paints Arena on Saturday.
Crosby, who is second on the Penguins with 31 points (12 goals, 19 assists) in 30 games, had four points (two goals, two assists) in three games against the Maple Leafs last season.
Matthews, who leads the Maple Leafs with 26 points (13 goals, 13 assists) in 25 games, had two points (one goal, one assist) in three games against the Penguins last season. who?
GO PENS!! BEAT THE LEAVES!!

Status report
The Maple Leafs aren't expected to make any change to their lineup from their previous game, a 2-1 shootout win against the Calgary Flames on Tuesday. … Murray took part in the morning skate for the first time since sustaining a lower-body injury Nov. 27. "It just feels really good to be back," Murray said. "I wouldn't be out there if there were any restrictions. … Day-to-day type thing." … Kuhnhackl will be a game-time decision.
Stat pack
The Maple Leafs power play is fifth in the NHL at 22.1 percent. … The Penguins are 24 for 26 (92.3 percent) on the penalty kill during their past seven games.

That being said we were lucky to hold on. We finally started fast. But couldn't wait to find the wire at the end of the game. Freddie is a MONSTER!!!!!
