May 19, 20187 yr This Vegas fan base is enthusiastic, but they’ve been handed a contender. No building no drafting or developing... no pain or heart break, no patience. It’s more spectacle than character at this point. Sounds harsh but only time will tell if this fan base is legit.
May 19, 20187 yr was anybody saying this before they started the season?.......An really, everyone on The Vegas team was kinda available to be signed since they were in junior.....
May 19, 20187 yr Sounds like sour grapes to me in here.... they were not handed anything and nobody at all predicted with the roster that they choose that they would make it to the cup final.

Yea sour grapes teams that have waited and drafted with sad sack teams ....and a expansion team makes it in one year what other teams ( if they are lucky get in maybe 10 to 20? ) yea . Try looking at the facts before you make an idiotic statement. If Vegas wins the cup this league is like WWE a joke.

Nobody saw that lineup and thought that they would even make it to the playoffs.
May 19, 20187 yr Sour grapes or not, it does actually look that way. In reality though, it's all about how much effort the players put in on the ice. Vegas just out works you, and that's a reflection of the players and how much they want to be successful. Too many players today just show up for the pay cheque.
May 19, 20187 yr The expansion draft was likely too slanted in favour of the expansion team. But really Vegas fleeced a lot of teams who did a very poor job. Can’t blame Vegas for doing a good job. Chevy didn’t get fleeced at all. He handled it well. lets not pretend that MAF isn’t the single biggest reason they are here. They are a good team but He’s stolen games. Good for them.

May 20, 20187 yr Gallant is the difference - he has his team playing his system - that’s it vegas has way less breakdowns than Winnipeg..,

Very few of those shoots are quality scoring chances. I don’t expect them to say it in interviews, but the Jets better be planning some changes.

Well dont hold your breath.....Maurice is very reluctant to make changes...we moved Morrow out for Enstrom back after Morrow played well for us and Maurice had a hunch but since then nothing...never takes Enstrom out. Unless he gets hurt. It took an injury to get Roslovic back in...and Maurice refuses to put him at center...his natural position. Edited May 20, 20187 yr by bb1

He's been good at wing and can step in when needed.
May 20, 20187 yr Author He is better at center his natural position its where he and conner as his winger had a great year in the AHL last year...

May 20, 20187 yr 49 minutes ago, Goalie said: Not true at all. Fleury has stood on his head.. He's made about 5 or 6 saves a game he has no business making. That’s because he’s far too comfortable back there. If they don’t get more traffic in front, he will make those saves again.

Try looking at the facts before you make an idiotic statement. If Vegas wins the cup this league is like WWE a joke. These Vegas fans have no idea what other fanbases have gone through. The patience & heartbreak other fanbases have had to endure. They can't allow Seattle to be the same way when their expansion draft happens. I'm pissed the Jets lost but not because they lost the series... because they lost to Vegas. I can accept losing to any other team except the Knights. Give me a few days. I will accept it but I'll never like it.
May 21, 20187 yr 51 minutes ago, Goalie said: Vegas just outworked the Jets. Also 5 goals in the last 4 games isnt good enough. That's Fleury getting hot. Not the team having stopped scoring.
May 21, 20187 yr If you had told me before the season that the Jets would make it to the WCF, I would have been happy. I think what is really bugging me is that we lost to Vegas (a freaking expansion team). We've waited patiently as we drafted and developed and you get a first year club in the Finals. Plus add in the heartbreak we've experienced as fans (80s Oilers, losing the team, some bad hockey teams) and its just frustrating.
To the Stanley cup Final! Its official the NHL is a joke....and all the Gms who gifted this team...enjoy your present.
