Game Story When was last time we lost 2 in a row? That and it's an odd numbered game, Jets should win. Double down.

What would be a refreshing thing to see is if the pee knights do score the first and maybe even the second goal of the game, we come back with a flurry of goals by overwhelming their 'hey lets clog the nuetral zone, we're up by one/two'.

Enough with this 'we've scored the first goal, batten down the hatches, form a wall and look for a lucky break on a counter'. Lets break that cycle of crappy boring hockey. Lets find a formula that dismisses that strategy.

alternate celebrity quote

Quote

 

Doctor: Uh, none of the tests required you to disrobe. I'm not sure why you're all sitting here in your underwear.

Deputy S. Jones: Dangle was in his underwear when we all got here.

Deputy Travis Junior: Yeah, what's the deal, Dangle?

Lt. Jim Dangle: I don't feel the need to explain myself.

 

probably the funniest tv series I've ever seen.

In a way though it is flattering - teams have realized this is their only real hope of beating us.  The secret is to go out and get the first and second goal, then the other team has to open up, and then it's over baby.  That would have been a whole different game if Scheifele's opening drive to the net had squeaked through Fleury's pads and gone in.

Holy chit Helle looked bad there.

VGK loves the backhand.

No reason Helle had to guess. Just needed to stand his ground. Made up for it on that glove save.

Someone needs to light a fire under Laine.

Two minutes for diving please.
