But a real danger for the flames is that the Jets will be playing Minnesota and Colorado when their seasons are basically over – they’ll be resting top players and will have nothing at stake.

Really, it’s there for the taking for Winnipeg. We just have to hope they somehow manage to mess it up.

Colorado/Minnesota and Dallas are tied for division. Their winner could come down to the last game/week. You always want home ice and finish first in division so let’s hope they are still in a tight race by the time they face the jets.

Markstrom was lights out, kept the team in it with some incredible saves. Credit where credit is due!

[dustygoon]

That is the team i thought we would get more often than not this year. So great.

Sutter saying Markstrom has been "a rock" for us the past two months with a straight face!! It has Trump "fake news!" vibes.

How often has Huberdeau been with Mang this year? That seems like a natural duo that needs to stick.

Maybe Winnipeg will just lose their last 4 games

Gonna enjoy that after a long season of little joy.

Winnipeg is a bad team; wish we had a few more games to easily overtake them.
Hopefully not too little too late.

I don't see the Jets any different than the Flames or Nashville for that matter. Calgary SHOULD be better than both, and probably Seattle too, but they can't get out of their own way.

…. Wow.

Nice ATL. Until I read that, I was unaware that the Jets fan base is just as delusional and full of ******** as that of the Coilers.

Hahaha what a goofball.

Flames will be behind the 8 ball for the rest of the season. It’s really good to see them not giving up. Even if it doesn’t ultimately work out.

They have essentially been in playoff mode for the last 15 games or so. They do seem to perform under pressure.

If they do pull it off and can get some goaltending they will be a tough out in the playoffs.

I don't know if it's in my head, but Backlund's goal celebrations against Vancouver, especially in Vancouver, have always been my favourite. He always seems to go straight to their fans (couldn't find a better GIF):



Then we have this beauty from a home game:



He and I see eye to eye on the Canucks, it would appear.

Winterpeg'd Jets - still can't figure out their penalty issues since they arrived back in the blackflies country! Hahahahahaha!

[Ashes]

Huuuge win, loved hearing how deflated Dubois was in his post-game interview and how salty the fans were in the ATL. Jets have been struggling like crazy the last few months outside of those recent 6 goal wins. You have to think they are feeling the heat! LFG!!

[TheIronMaiden]

Winning under last nights circumstance is the signs of a well coached team.

Ok, this one was pretty good:

My cousin sent me this last night:

You guys can have that last playoff spot….half of Winnipeg wants them to miss so big changes happen here…this team has been such a disappointment the second half of the season…

Jets will lose to Colorado and Minnesota. Come on, they can’t even beat the Flames!

[442scotty]

Fun game to watch in its entirety for a change. Everyone pulled their own weight.

[FlamesAddiction]

It's funny that Jets fans make fun of Sutter for being old. Their team's coach is 4 years older than Sutter.
