Matt Eichel things the Jets' were too quiet during the Trade Deadline: "It is frustrating to say the least that the Jets, in the midst of a four game losing streak, did not think to make a move to wake some players up. The Jets put an uninspired Antropov on the IR and moved an equally uninispired Dustin Byfuglien onto the right win with Andrew Ladd and Bryan Little. That is scary and disappointing." [Jets All Out]
