You watch Haydn Fleury do his thing and wonder how he wasn't more of a fixture in this lineup.

"We broke it down to build it back." 🫡 Connor Hellebuyck joins Scott Oake after his Game 2 shutout against the Stars.

Rule 37.4: "A goal cannot be scored on a play where an attacking Player propels the puck with his skate into the net (even by means of a subsequent deflection off of another Player) using a “distinct kicking motion.” Hellebuyck is the goaltender trying to make the save. Complete

Goalies trying to make a save off a distinct kicking motion should not be penalized for trying to do their job. I don’t care that Hellebuyck deflected the puck into his own net and the rule (ii) explains how it shouldn’t be a goal.

Again, this makes the call/explanation on the ice that Connor Hellebuyck put the puck into his own net after a kick even more bizarre.

#NHLJets lose to #Stars 5-2, Hellebuyck 21 saves. Connor & Neiderreiter the goals. Next is Game 4 Tues night, Dallas leads series 2-1. IMO Refs wording of propelling puck is covering their call on ice. It was kicked, plain & simple. Nothing is propelled if not kicked at net...

Seems like a very slippery slope to allow what was clearly an angry player making contact with a referee to slide without any further issue. This is the same league that cracked down hard on Ottawa (25K fine) for shooting a couple pucks in a friendly manner during warmups.

Turns out you can, actually, with the NHL opting to look the other way. Couple of truly bizarre rules interpretations here in Dallas tonight.

The debate about the Dallas “kicked” goal is one thing, but in what hockey universe can a player, Mason Marchment, wack a referee on the leg with his stick while screaming at him over a missed call, and not get suspended? The NHL I guess. Mind-boggling.

I’ve seen enough of Mason Appleton. #NHLJets #GoJetsGo

I don't want to pile on but what the f**k is Appleton doing out there in the last 2 minutes down 2? #nhljets

You're running Appleton this much you probably deserve to lose. Need a lot more Ehlers and less Appleton

But Ken, you see, Winnipeg had more power plays than Dallas at that point of the game AND they have the lead, so therefore under Game Management Section 123 subsection BS that was the only way to call it.

It’s tough to put into words how much Mark Scheifele means to the city of Winnipeg. Our first draft pick… Has chosen to spend his entire career in the city… We just love him so much. Hearing him say he’s playing and that it’s what his dad would have wanted… man 🥺 We have

Mason Appleton next season

"Just courageous what he did tonight." Peter DeBoer opened his post-series press conference with a message to Mark Scheifele and the Winnipeg Jets.

#NHLJets Haydn Fleury, a pending UFA, says he would love to re-sign in Winnipeg. Says he loved playing in a market “where hockey matters” and being able to show his son what a hockey team means to the community as it does here.

If there is a Heaven, may George Wendt be greeted appropriately.

From lacing up his skates at Dakota Community Centre as a kid, to taking the ice at Canada Life Centre for the Jets. Welcome home, Jonathan Toews!
