For some stupid reason tonight's game starts at 7:45 it's also heritage jersey night and it's on TSN3 lineup to be projected as soon as it's available (yeah normally I start these threads half an hour before the game but like I said stupid start time)

however we do have goaltender confirmations

 

Edited October 25, 20232 yr by iHeart

All 32 teams are playing tonight and the league thought it would be neat to stagger start times, apparently. 

This all reeks of ESPN trying to do something they think is fun, but actually fucks over all the fans. I was just reading a quote from one of the Wings coaches complaining about them starting at 8:30. Definitely stupid.

that's why I said stupid start time alert (and did the auto censor get disabled?)

Got drapes? 🥺

We're just going to have to get used to low attendance at Jets games this year.  

The only games that will be sold out are the Leafs and Habs and Round 1 playoffs if we make it.

Ya I think everyone needs to breathe a bit and realize this isn't an overnight fix. Pointing out the empty seats at every game is already exhausted.

You're right I mean even teams that have won the cup probably have had noticeably empty seats at one point or another and rebounded from attendance dips during regular season

no score after one

dayam Gussy scores his first goal in four years

apples makes it 2-0

In the immortal words of Denis Beyak:

"The Jets go bang bang!"

Do you go to any games?

and there goes our shut out

KConn makes it 3-1

Can’t seem to win a draw, but it hasn’t mattered too much tonight.

Need to clean that up though.

Why are we so bad when the other team has an empty net.  One goal game now

It isn't going to change,   Winnipeg is poor and with the crazy inflation the situation isn't going to get any better.  

The only way the place fills up is if they drop ticket prices or if the Jets somehow get red hot and the bandwagon fans jump on again and buy tickets.    

barron gets the empty netter

well I guess it's safe to say the Jets are going to take this one our first consecutive win of the season,

If I went tonight it would be 11137 in the stands.

Write it down folks - 2023.10.24 - tonight this was said by Dan Robertson….

So, you don’t buy tickets, but feel the need to constantly comment on the lackluster attendance?  Cool.

What does it matter if he buys tickets or not?     Nobody on this site buys tickets for Riders home games but we sure point out  how sparse the crowds have been this year for that team.

What's wrong with that?

I know the game was over but it's weird to me that Blues let NS sit behind his net to drain the clock with about 16 seconds left.

It's called having have an opinion. Opinions are like azzholes. Everyone's got one.

If it's not me talking about it, someone else will. If it's not the Free Press's Mike McIntyre, it's TSN's Darren Dreger whose interview with Chipman about the attendance is trending.
