All the players showed up to put the Jets away. But I especially enjoy when my favorite players who also happen to be the latest victims of relentless fan whipping are the ones leading they way. Bennett especially. Then Monahan closely following.
And hot doggy did they ever do right running Talbot the entire series. Brilliant. Now let this train punch through another round ! PRETTY please!
New strategy --> be luckier than the other team is better than you

Just don't want to see a repeat of last seasons elimination game... sure, at the end of the day you are still out, but at least show up today.
Quote:
Didn't like Friesens take on Wheeler in the Sun today, come on Paul, how do you expect Wheels to score if the net isn't empty, don't blame him, blame the rest of the team for not getting a lead and forcing the other team to pull the goalie, it's not Mark Wheelers fault, after all he's a leader on and OFF the ice!
Quote:
Can't bear the thought of today being the last Jets game for an indeterminate amount of time.
Can't bear the thought of winning the draft lottery and waiting an indeterminate amount of time to see Laf play.
Basically, I need to see some determination and a win today

9:45pm ish pick drop? Wth... SN probably wanted it delayed so everyone could watch the Leafs choke.

No way that doesn't distract the Flames.

I heard rumours that the Calgary Flames found a way to clone Tkachuk and they are going to have a full 1st line of just him? Is this true?

I'd love to see a Jet place a real disrespectful hit on a Flame. Preferably one of their dirtbags, but I'm not picky.
“Unfit” to Play
Quote:
Welcome to 2019-2020 Jets hockey. Every time we get some good lines together, one of the key players immediately gets injured. We've lost more man-games to injury than pretty much anybody else, and 2/3 of them have been our marquee players.
Quote:
All of Scheif, Laine and Appleton were deemed unfit to practice.
Quote:
By mere coincidence, Tkachuck and Lucic and Ronaldo are still unfit to play hockey, yet somehow they get allowed in.
Quote:
If Tkachuk ends up amputated I wouldn't shed a tear.
Quote:
This Tkachuk folk oughta have a horseshoe up his ass
Quote:
GO JETS GO
I am ready to be hurt one last time, just like Calgary has hurt everything and everyone I loved.
Quote:
Tkachuk is probably better defensively then like 5/6th of our D core.
Quote:
Somewhat fitting seeing that ratfaced f*** in a frozen pizza commercial since he's the human equivalent to the snow that develops on them during improper storage.
Quote:
Holy f*** Tkachuk has the most punchable looking face

Looch Lays a Beating
Quote:
That was a mismatch.
Quote:
That Lucic is one hell of a tough customer. There's 2 guys in the league that could give him a good fight, and that would be Lowry or Ryan Reaves. Lucic is also strong and throws these sledge hammer punches.
Credit Bealieu for having the guts to fight him tho.
I do think Adam Lowry may be able to take him on, like he did with Ryan Reaves. Like to see that fight
Quote:
Why would you fight Lucic
Quote:
Atta boy Boo Boo, go for that picnic basket

Well Beaulieu at least you tried

Who will be sacrificed in game 4

Boy Lou hit Lucic's hands so hard with his face that they're bleeding. A+ strat
Quote:
Watch lucic stand right in front of helle. No one will touch him.
Quote:
Lucic hovering in the slot like he's Monahan and God damn if he hasn't earned it tonight.
Quote:
Jets I will accept losing but I will not accept you making Milan Lucic look like he’s in his prime
Missing Star Power
Quote:
Realistically, you could've faded our flairs when Scheifele went down, and then extra faded them when Laine was out too.
But dear lord, Connor and Wheeler are invisible. Where'd you 2 go? I know you're being matched against Flames' top line, but that would've been the case no matter what. Like ####, if you were gonna play with that little heart, should've just opted out of the bubble in the first place.
Quote:
Dude this team is so anemic once they get in the offensive end, ####s straight depressing to watch
Quote:
God the jets are so unthreatening in the offensive zone, just flat and staying outside, lobbing soft wrist shots from the point with no screens
Quote:
Lol @ our first line of 3 wingers.
Quote:
you guys notice how the jets don't attempt any scoring chances off the rush ever? it's like our whole offensive gameplan is to get it deep and grind along the boards and then just pray we can maintain possession in the zone until a puck finds its way into the net.
that #### just isn't working at all. wheeler needs scheifele to make it work
Dube breaks the opening goal curse

They’ve folded like a cheap lawn chair already. I’d be embarrassed to be a Jet right now.

One of the most bland playoff performances ive seen in a long time.
Quote:
In fairness to the team, my heart isn't in it either.
I don't get what this coach offers, though. He can't get the team up for big games, and his systems get them furiously outshot every night.

Losing sure sucks.

Talbot has been better than Hellebuyck this series. No way we were going to win with that being the case.
God I miss watching a team that were the aggressors. Now we're just a bunch of victims.

They mailed it in and could care less.

Elimination game and shutout. **** you.
Quote:
Couldn't have lost to a more ratf*** team. Oh well, can't say fake playoffs bother me much other than robbing the Jets of a legitimate draft lottery win that they're now going to have to wrestle from the league's favoured recipients.
Nonetheless, f*** this. Hope the Flames get embarrassed. Can't wait to see them die by the sword.

Yeah flames will try to epst... erm I mean accidentally on purpose injure the opposing teams best players.

Finally the Flames show up at their best in high pressure situations, and finally they string together two good playoff-like performances. That takes a weight off my chest that I feel has been sitting there for years.
I really wasn't feeling that great about the team after the first two games. Even when they won the first one, I thought it was more about the Jets being bad and distracted than anything the Flames did. Second game they weren't good at all and Winnipeg just choked them.
The last two games they played like they can. Third line emerging as a scoring threat is huge going forward, and with Jankowski even the fourth line has now looked useful. This is how I feel our depth has looked like on paper, but has never showed up on ice this season, until now.
I really have to eat crow on Talbot. Before the season, I thought he was a total hasbeen and would play himself out of the lineup. I stand 100% corrected. I love Rittichs personality, but going with Talbot has proven to be absolutely the right choice, he's been very good and seems to be getting into a groove.
I love what Forbort and Gustafson bring to the team, great acquisitions. Liked them coming in at trade deadline, love them now. Our defensive depth looks really solid with them.
Love the rise of Mangiapane and Dube. Love Backlund. Monahan I thought had a good, quiet game. Tkachuk was up and down in the series, but overall a beast and a leader. He feels like the captain already.
We might not have the brightest stars in the league, but everything else looks good right now. We got depth, we got strength, we got nastiness, we got goaltending. This should be a tough team to beat.
That said, any opponent we'll meet in the next round is going to be on a different level to what the Jets were in this series. This series was over when Scheifele got hurt, and the Jets were never a real threat after that. This was a play-in series, or as way say in Finland, "pity playoffs".
Now bring on the real thing.

Sam Bennett had 8 hits tonight. Lucic was 2nd with 3.
Benny also finished with 22 hits in 4 games vs Winnipeg. What a ####ing beast.
Bennet/Dube/Lucic was magnificent. Have you got the clip where Lucic blew past all the Jets players for a scoring chance? That wasn't the first time this year he impressed me with a burst of speed out of nowhere.
What bull####. It would've been obvious it wasn't a cut right away. So why attack Tkachuk for lifting his skate when it had nothing to do with the injury? Trying to manufacture a suspension such garbage

Ok....but i guess what I'm asking is how does the bracket work when determined?
1 vs 8
2 vs 7
???? And on and on?
Yes that’s how it goes.
I know the non play in series games Have something to do with seeding. I don’t know how it works though. Do they get 2 points for a win? Does regular season standings mean anything? I haven’t followed the non play in series at all. I have no idea how their current rankings are?
