    We have not clinched yet. Based on our current points total and the projected points that St. Louis will collect by season’s end (estimated by using their current winning percentage over a full season) we have likely accrued enough points already to get in, but it is not official yet. So far, only the NY Rangers have officially clinched a playoff spot.

    Fans of the Winnipeg Jets counts their magic number in wins, so their “3” is actually the same as my “6” in points. I feel mine is more accurate as points can be gathered without actually winning, so saying they need a combo of 3 wins or opponent losses is not truly accurate. Us stats junkies take the precision of this kind of triviality seriously!

    Given the picture of two stoners who love marijuana, that could mean any of 24 teams from the Provinces or States where it is legal, but I’d lean to Seattle or Colorado who started it all 😉

    Hoped for a better result, not not disappointed in their play today. They had the better chances on the first, dominated the second, looked good on the penalty kill and almost got through the one where the goal happened. Fluky bounce on the second one, so they really only got burned on the third goal with a bad read by Samberg when they were pressing. Even with the goals, play was pretty even in the third 5 on 5  
    I’m not quitting on this team yet.

    You wait until game 68 to declare the Jets as a legit team, then take all of two games to go back to “I am done watching them”. You whine about Kyle Connor never being pulled away from Scheifele’s line, now he is and you still complain. It’s like you can’t be content unless you are unhappy about everything this team does. And anything short of a Cup win will be a failed season. Which is  a miserable way to live your life a fan. 
    Yes the last two losses sucked, but big picture this team is still in pace for 109 points in arguably the toughest division in the league. Given what the projections were last summer, things are pretty good now. The success of the season does not erase the concerns of the last few losses, but the stink of the past 72 hours does not diminish the positive steps the team has made. Perspective. And maybe let’s see how the change you pined for works out before saying “useless” as a default negative take. Rant over, go Jets go!

    Pull Hellebuyck to protect him. No help today. This makes that Vancouver loss look like a masterpiece by comparison.

    The story: first of back-to-backs, this is the “game in hand” the Jets have over Colorado and Dallas, as they try to jump from 3rd back to 1st in the Central. Isles are 4 points out of a playoff spot.

    Brossoit needs to play 7 of the last 14 games for the Jets to be eligible for the Jennings trophy. Toffoli’s 800th game.

    The whole play was strong. Josh’s pass was sweet. Jets deserved the W. Regardless of who they play, they will be hard to beat 4 out of 7 games. I honestly think they are Canada’s best chance in a long time. 
     
    depth is there. The D play is there. Ppl look at shots but lots of those are coming from far away. I think I saw we had 15 high danger chances and they had 3. Thats pretty wild. We pretty much shut the rangers down for 57 minutes at msg.
