Yup first two games real close. Ultimately good guys made that play to put them over the top. Let’s see what our road Jets do.

If I’m the Blues, I’m feeling pretty good about our road playoff game thus far.

Appleton getting his chances, time he buries one please and thank you.

I don’t know the stats but our puck battles face offs and giveaways aren’t where we need them.

Jets need a confident pk kill.

Our pk cannot continue at this pace.

Former Detroit Red Wings head coach on the pregame show of the Leafs/Senators: Its all about the pk, the pp can dry up but you need that pk. Yup, and hoping the Jets make the necessary adjustments on their pk. Can’t keep giving up power play goals and expect to be successful. Keeping out of the box would also be helpful.

Perfect summation by Scott Arniel: Lifted from Darren Bauming. “That first period it was kind of a little bit wacky and we were a little bit sloppy,” Arniel said. “And then all of a sudden, second period, we started to do some things that we talked about. Got some zone time. Started to create chances and then it kind of built towards that third, and it was a real good third period.”

I know I know totally different team from last year but not to rain on the parade but we did experience the gentleman’s sweep last year against the Avs so let’s take that 3rd period and apply it to the first two next game. When we dictate the game we usually win.

Blues pk much more aggressive than Jets pk.

All about the special teams in the playoffs.

Hopefully just high energy nerves. Calm down, get back to the system and responsibilities.

That Stephen Harper commercial wasn’t creepy at all.

The refs need to put their whistles away for the small chincy stuff and not make it about themselves.

My guess is they start out slow then warm up. Less go. No gentleman sweep this year please and thank you.

Ahhhh thanks for making sense of that 13 second video. lol.

John Garrett sizing up his Blues jersey come this Saturday. Kidding but I’d rather have Garry Galley as the color guy, I really enjoy his takes that I know others here don’t.

Will they use it to its full advantage is the question.

They're feeling real good about themselves right now which we need to change quickly so they don't build off that confidence.

If a good special teamer had done exactly what CK had done would he still be in the league? I think we know the answer to that. I get it's all about drawing revenue, profit and winning but it still doesn't make it right. Different rules for different people and not just in sport. I know, I'm so woke.

There is no easy out in the playoffs. At least that should be the mindset entering into every game, every period, every shift.

F’ing Ducks.

Yup but next man up, let’s go.

Taken from Money Puck predictions:

The only way the Jets will get real respect is winning the Cup and that might not even do it, i.e. I can see the headline now, Jets win Cup only because of Helle now back to the Leafs and how they're one player away from winning it all.
