apologies to Frosty. 

Thoughts on this series? I have no clue, but the Blues fans at HFboards are concerned that their goalie will return to his mean, and that the Jets are better at the hitting game, and with the man advantage.

Well everyone who wants to fire Maurice? I guess you have Tampa, Pittsburg, and potentially Calgary and San Jose hiring new coaches.

I sort of get it because I'm like that about the Bombers but I just don't get that worked up about hockey. They'll give em a run on Saturday... Not sure it'll be enough, but they'll give em a run. 

So that's good enough for you....well it sure bloody well isn't for me and a lot of other fans....IF we go out next game that's a regression from last year...You only get so many kicks at the can and we might just be shining up the golf clubs after Sat.....So many expectations for this club to go deeper in the playoffs this year...IF it doesn't go that way then there has to be changes ...This team has a lot of talent but obviously there's an ingredient missing that costs the club in the late going...Still have A SHOT but it's an uphill and we're behind the eight ball...I hope to hell I'm wrong and we pull this thing out and advance to the next round...if not...there'll be a lot of unhappy fans ...especially those hard nosed faithfulls who stand out there on Donald

Trouba and Buff were horror twins on D, last night.   And for the love of god, what is 55's line doing out there, yet again, in the "dying" moments

That was 100% on trouba.  Held the puck unsuccessfully and then blew it on front of the net

i had a better time at the strip club after 

Really? Cuz Scheif had the puck after the scrum and failed to clear it.

Still, according to game score (from HockeyStatCards), your top line for the Jets were deemed to be the worst performers on the ice tonight out of all skaters. Full yikes.

I remember over the season, the team was winning ugly in a lot of games. At the time I thought, who cares how they win, good teams win when they play badly.

Guess I was wrong.

0 for 6 past 6 home playoff games.. Making the same dumb decisions.. Coaches have been fired for less. Why weren't we rolling 4 lines again.. Why is our worst D zone forward line on the ice again in our zone with 25 seconds left

I don't know what planet Buff was on last night but it wasn't Earth. Just staggering.

Bill Peters in Calgary won't be going anywhere considering just how bad Glen Gulutzan was before him.

And Pitts an aging team, may need to break up that core, same with San Jose, although Vegas is probably the odds on favorite to win the WC, Tampa is the unknown. 

Jets have the most combined 3rd period losses in playoffs and regular season in the last 3 years. 11 this season alone. Damning

If we got rid of those 6 players we'd be a last place team.

Ya. Im saying you can blame them but they aren't the real problem.. The guy calling for Prevent D and Conservative O leading by 1 with 18 minutes left is. 

Cant fire all the players right

Well, if they lose this series I'm sure Maurice is done. I'm just worried who'd they replace him with. I mentioned just how bad Glen Gulutzan was in Calgary before Peters. There are lots of cheap HC options out there available for Cheveldayoff to hire. Assistants who feel they're ready to be a HC. Or guys out there with a year or 2 of HC experience who have been fired once before. Most will fail as they aren't capable of being successful NHL head coaches. I think fans have to be careful for what they wish for.

What about Pascal Vincent from the Moose? Hell of a job he did with a makeshift moose team. That team showed heart and effort nightly

Who knows? Could be great hire or an abysmal failure. That's the risk with a hire like that. 

Or we win the next two games against the Blues,  go on to win the SC and Maurice gets an extension.

so why the sudden Maurice canning talk? we didn't fire him after we got swept by the ducks four years ago did we?

Don’t see the point in firing Maurice unless you can find someone better. Options are limited with a lot of coaching seats potentially up for grabs

Expectations were much lower back then.
