That was awesome.

There is no way the top three teams in the division should be the position of having to play one another in the first round. The way the playoffs are done nowadays is screwed imo.

Interesting thread Bluto, quite cathartic. 🙂 For me, it's quite easy and nowhere near as well thought out and detailed as yours. 30 Toronto Maple Leafs - You could be watching a game where the Ducks are playing the Panthers and the Leafs will come up in the conversation. The coverage on them and the fawning over them is vomit high. If they went 0 and 82 my life would be complete. 30 Edmonton Oilers/Eskimos - Grew up solidifying myself as a hardcore Jets and Bomber fan through the Oilers/Eskimos dynasties. Now that I live just outside Edmonton and work in the city, my level of pleasure is extremely high with their levels of mediocrity. Its looks good on them. I'm not well liked around these parts showing off my colors evereywhere I go. 30 Roughriders - self explanatory being on a Bomber site. 10 Colorado Avalanche - recently given as I just watched their telecast and it was way over the top homer style. I hope we meet them in the playoffs and pound the crap out of them so I can listen to their groupie commentators commiserate among each other.

I'd like to play the Avs again. After watching their telecast Im really disliking them. I watched the Hawks and Wild telecasts as well this last stretch and they were well done compared to the Avs channel. im hoping our telecasts dont come across like the Avs does.

Probably was never in the position to be fired at that level (like the majority of us on this board), with all respect of course.

I don't think they went back on purpose. It really does seem that can't maintain that pace throughout the game, some of them are just plain gassed (and probably injured).

I'll state the obvious but when they play big, strong and fast like they did for the first period very few teams in this league can keep up. I guess they just don't have the energy and health to maintain that pace. I think there is indeed something to the argument about being gassed. The season length and physical impact on their bodies have caught up to some of them. For example Shief looked a half a step behind his normal self. Hopefully they can rediscover that extra gear for the playoffs.

This Colorado broadcast is making me vomit.

I'm watching the Avs over the top pregame show on their telecast. For the love of goodness please break out of this funk and annihilate them.

Yup didnt absolve players responsibility as I mentioned but I'm guessing it's not the only thing that ails this team of late. Winning or losing in stretches of time usually, not always, has to do with a variety of things going on that need to be addressed.

I agree, however I would think an element to the Jets woes of late is other teams have found a useful blueprint in how to play us. Therefore, added to the players/coaches responsibility of team unity/cohesion is the coaches ability to come up with a blueprint of their own to stay ahead of the oppositions approach.

Comrie way to deep in his net.

Wow what a frustrating game to watch.

It's a cliche but Jets need to get back to the basics, get pucks to the net, go north south. Shoot shoot and more shooting. Quit trying to pass and stick handle to the back of the net. Lowry's line is our best line right now.

Let's hope they get swept first round so cbc commentators will have nothing to talk about till June.

What another ugly sloppy game by the Jets. Wow.

Perfect example of the saying not how you start it's how you finish.

Rocking back and forth keep reminding myself we are in the playoffs, don't care who we play.

So far this game has shutout written all over it. They are so flat.

So far Jets look disinterested. Maybe first is not a priority for them. Shoot ins have to be stronger, they are making it way too easy for Price.

Yup. Whole lot of people would not accept a shorter season.

In my travels across this fine country and abroad defending Winnipeg wherever I go, I don't hear this term much.

Not just owners but I think you mean capitalist pigs 🙂

I know hindsight is 20 20 but man why not call a timeout when the Islanders tied it up with a minute and half to go and slow things down and refocus.

Watched my first AAF game (last part of the 4th Q and overtime) this past weekend between Memphis (?) and someone. Johhny Football had one series. My bias for the CFL game has me go Meh even though Memphis (I think it was Memphis) came back from two scores and won it in overtime. Overtime is set up that the offense starts at the opposition's 10 yard line, can't kick a field goal and must go for the 2 point conversion. I believe they said it goes until someone wins. No ties.
