This is so depressing.

Isn’t perpetual mediocrity just the best?

Preds can't run and gun with these guys. Gotta get back to that trap game for game 6. Can't panic after the Jets score one.

The Jets are amazing. They have such unreal talent and depth at forward. I remember so many drafts during which the Jets did so well. Now we are watching the result of all those drafts.

Not a Jets fan, but cheering for them in this series. Hope to see Nashville, San Jose, Pittsburgh and especially Boston all fall down.

If we get a Caps/Lightning/Knights/Jets final 4 we’ll have 4 teams who have never won a Stanley cup!

The Flames have been doing the opposite since Darryl Sutter arrived.

On the plus side for Nashville, Rinne always comes back after a goose egg. But I hope the Jets crush them at home. Tired of hearing "yea, but Nashville."

Stupid Jets patiently building a team through the draft. Don’t they know Canadian teams are supposed to build by trading draft picks and signing over priced free agents?

Unreal assist and move by Connor. Great game tonight for the kid, and what better time to turn it on

Jets just have so much scoring depth. Very impressive. Kyle Connor looks great.

Give Juuse Saros a shot.

I have to admit, I thought Nashville would be better playing a run and gun versus trapping. It would appear that I was wrong.

Le sigh. The Jets are built to win. Big bodies with skill. I'd love Lowry on the Flames bottom six. He is a tough hombre and good defensively.

All the Jets model requires is excellent scouting, patient ownership, and a GM unwilling to take shortcuts. There's no reason why Calgary couldn't - yeah, who am I kidding.

Winning a lottery didn't hurt either
