Game 1 of pre-season post-game recap: Oilers 2 Jets 0

The Jets kicked off the pre-season with a 2-0 loss to the Oilers in Edmonton.  Eric Comrie made 31 saves on 33 shots in his hometown.

For those who would like to take a deeper dive into the advanced stats here are the results from tonight’s game via Natural Stat Trick.

Audio:

Joona Luoto

Tucker Poolman

Eric Comrie

Coach Maurice:  How does he evaluate that game?  Who were some of the Jets players that caught his eye?  What were his thoughts on the overall play of his D?  Joona Luoto standing out.  Steady play of Tucker Poolman.  Is it time for Poolman? Second goal being a teachable moment.
