GO JETS GO!   I'll be there at the game tonight!

Tighten things up, shut down MacKinnon and we'll be in good shape.  Canada Life Centre will be rocking!

Thanks to whoever added the Jets emoticon!

Adam Proteau from the hockey News is thinking the Jets are going home early.

Thinks if the the Avs can get good goaltending, their domination of the Jets in the first game and the Jets porous defensive play might be difficult for the Jets to overcome and uses last years Jets first win against the Knights than 4 straight losses as something that might come again.

I'm hoping last years team and this years team are two different beasts that makes his comparison flawed not to mention the fact that we were one of the better defensive teams this year that hopefully can show it's self in game two.

  

The problem is not just the goaltending. The whole defensive structure of the AVS sucks. 

National media also don't realize that the Jets may not have the top-end league leaders on their roster, but they are deep, and every line can score. I thought the Monahan Ehlers Toffoli line was the best in game 1, and they did not even score.

He probably also thinks that because Auston Matthews scored in game 2 that Toronto is now going to rattle off 3 more straight wins and beat Boston because Auston Matthews 

Everyone is so eager to throw away the regular season matchups... but the fact is that the Jets dominated the Avs in all 3 meetings.

Also conveniently lost in this, is that the Jets played Colorado's "game" in game 1 and still WON.     Jets play Jets hockey the rest of the series, I'm confident we're going to round 2.

As admin time is all volunteer time not sure I'd agree with this.

Me too! Saw my first in person home playoff victory in 31 years on Sunday, hoping to make it back-to-back wins!

Adam Proteau is a Leafs fan. In order to be a Leafs fan the prerequisite is that you must have really poor takes on what it takes to be successful in the playoffs with just a touch of obliviousness. Therefore, I take his opinion with a massive amount of skepticism. As others have said, he also thinks Matthews will lead the Leafs to the promised land. That is delusional.

The hockey news has been used for years at my parents house. Just so happens to be an excellent paper to use on the bottom of bird cages. 

I’ve been told I got game 5 tickets if I want them for me and my daughter. Think I may take my friend up on that offer. All I have to do is help him move. 

MBB Jets  gathering at Canada Life Centre @TrueBlue4ever @Goalie?   We should all grab a beer!  

Nah. I ain’t going. I’ve got a birthday party. Maybe if necessary game 5 lol. 

I'll be there tonight. Look for the white jersey.

Fine ..  I don't want to associate with you outside this forum either! 

 

Looking forward to this game.   Gonna be a blast.

Keep the Avs at 3 or less goals (not exactly easy) and the Jets win!

 

Apparently Georgiev had a failed suicide attempt after Game 1.  He jumped in front of a bus and it went through his legs.

All aboard the Gus bus. 
 

1 0 Jets. 

Colorado D are pinching a lot. We need to make them pay for that. 

Our pk will need to step up now as things will get evened up.

My armchair qbing is not liking Samberg’s game right now after almost 4 periods. But I’m sure I’m missing something.

Win a F’ing faceoff please. Jeebus.

Samberg a natural left shot d man playing on the right side. Think Stanley’s lack of defensive iq Is a bigger concern. Yes he’s big but he’s very slow and doesn’t appear to be in the right spots on D kinda leaving samberg on an island.

To be fair the draws are even, but Colorado had won the last few faceoffs in a row.

Pk needs to step up.
