The difference between Ehlers in Carolina versus Ehlers in Winnipeg is that (multiple) #NHLJets coaching staffs emphasized what he (allegedly) couldn't do, versus the #SoundtheSiren coaching staff that focused on what he can (and does).
On this day in 1998 (6/3/1998), Jamie Langenbrunner scored from a slapshot at center ice in overtime to defeat the Detroit Red Wings, 3-2. The win helps the Dallas Stars hold off elimination in the Western Conference Finals.

The Jets' treatment of Ehlers as a second thought who needed to be sparingly deployed with sheltering was a joke all along and I'm glad they're getting shown up for it
The *only* aggravating part of all this is the guy who is responsible for letting him get away last summer - and who hasn't had any real success in the 15 years that he's been in charge - still has the fucking job.
Not as aggravating as you'd think because a lot of Jets fans (not all of course, but a lot) knew this would happen.
The only people who didn't have faith in Nik Ehlers as a big time performer were Chipman and Chevy.
So just an advisory if you buy a water bottle at a Winnipeg Goldeyes game...
They aren't dishwasher safe. 🤦♂️
(To be fair, it probably said this on the little piece of paper that came with the bottle, but as a man I am legally obligated to ignore those)
Did a DD survey for @MLBTheShow . They sent a Thank You pack. It was very on brand for them. *sigh*
(I kid a bit.. the real "thank you" can be adjusting the rest of the inning XP paths this year.)
Anyway, running a touch late, going live somewhere around 9:30-10 PM CST!
Adam Hall just brought a home run back into the ballpark! The score remains Sioux Falls 3 Goldeyes 0 after the top of the third inning.

"GM Cheveldayoff and his two assistants — Larry Simmons and Craig Heisinger — have held their positions throughout all 15 seasons. It’s a similar story on the player-development side, where Jimmy Roy & Mike Keane have long overseen that area."
Reading this actually depressed me.
It's not enough to keep the guys running the team that have nothing to show for it over the last 15 years... You need to bring in MORE guys who have nothing to show for their 21 year careers!
I hate it here. #NHLJets
The #NHLJets are not waiting until July 1 to pursue a free agent they believe can help their hockey club.
Talks are underway with Shane Doan about a potential management role with the organization.
@WiebesWorld and I have the latest here: 👇

Again, I refuse to get excited about anything the #NHLJets do this summer because they didn't do the one thing that absolutely NEEDED to be done and that was fire GMKC and clean house.
If Chevy is running things, there should be zero faith anything he does will work.
I'm a fan of Roman Reigns. I am a HUGE fan of Seth Rollins. Neither of them should have won their matches over the last 2 days.
You've nerfed Fatu. You've nerfed TF out of Bron. Even Theory - who last week actually started to look like a legit killer heel - gets reverted back.
You see, what you do when your promotion is in decline, is take your promising young up and comers and continue to decock them and/or put them in sidekick roles to artificially extend the time on top for the existing, incumbent main event guys.
