The Jets are suddenly looking like a confident bunch after their lacklustre regular season. One has to assume that all the pundits predicting an Oiler sweep must have rightly pissed them off. I'm betting Maurice posted all that stuff on their dressing room wall for motivation.
And now they've completely taken away home ice from the Oil, and are looking poised to take the series as long as they can keep making McLotteryball's life miserable and limiting his chances. Their strategy has worked two games in a row. I don't see how it can't continue to work for games 3 and 4 as well. If Golden Boy can't get going, the Oilers are in serious trouble because their terrible depth certainly won't be able to pick up the slack.
