Both the Tuesday night game and the home opener on Saturday were concerning lows. > I believe tonight's crowd of 11,226 is the lowest in [#NHLJets](https://twitter.com/hashtag/NHLJets?src=hash&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) 2.0 history.

The Jets in front of their slipping crowd lost 5-1 to Pierre-Luc Dubois and his new team, the LA Kings. Dubois scored and put on a show in front of his former crowd. > First goal with the [@LAKings](https://twitter.com/LAKings?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) for Pierre-Luc Dubois! 🤭 [#NHLFaceOff](https://twitter.com/hashtag/NHLFaceOff?src=hash&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) [pic.twitter.com/LNO1Z1MUxz](https://t.co/LNO1Z1MUxz?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — NHL (@NHL) [October 18, 2023](https://twitter.com/NHL/status/1714452844466602390?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) The Jets are 1-2-0 to start the season and made sure fans will get to see the mid- to late-30s of Mark Scheifele and Connor Hellebuyck. How well are the new guys doing? [Way too early grading of the new guysIt’s only three games! Yeah, okay, true, and yet no one the Leafs signed this summer is a rookie. So how many games do they need before they start playing the way they usually do?
