It may be true, but I have a hard time seeing the Jets not coming out of the 1st round if they win the division/conference. Getting out of the 2nd round might be tough, but what's working in the regular season shouldn't be discounted. Improved special teams, and better team speed seem to be making some difference.
Even as it stands Dallas does not have a great defense. Adding Ceci doesn't change much from the defense the Jets torched earlier in the year. Dumba is still

Colorado still has some holes too.
And the Jets probably have better depth than either team. Especially if Dallas goes all in on Rantanen.
I agree special teams play a huge part,heck Edmontons penalty kill last year was a work of art for alot of games,I still feel Dallas can ice a deadly pp,I think dumbas game is a turnover machine compared to Stanley,but to his credit he can upset your game.dallas has a fairly good mixture of yout and elders,so may come down to goaltending.for me Colorado is a wild card,their big trades last few years haven't seemed to gel,but always thought mittelstadt always took to many shifts off.
