Sarcasm over head apparently


Again, sarcasm over head!

I'm also prone to thick sarcasm, the goes a long way

Minnesota was a better team and we hoofed them so i like our chances tomorrow morning, oops early afternoon.

Well, as long as it's a hard fought game, and decided by one goal by either team, I'd be happy with that. Of course I'd like the one goal ( or more) winner to be the Jets. Just don't want to see the Jets get blown out.

I think it's a 50 - 50 type of game, could go either way. GJG

Anyone watch the K & R podcast last night?
For you analytics greeks its a must watch ... John Garrett kills it. The analytics "expected goals" & "expected saves" are a joke ... seriously I could not stop laughing he was 100% correct and all the people commenting agreed with him.
kenny and renny post game

Indeed, the analytical gravitas and hockey acumen of John Garrett might even exceed that of Kevin Sawyer...

Garrett's always been a bit of a comedian - he's just doing a bit. Incredulously asking "Expected goals? Expected by who? Their mother?" is just for laughs.

But if it's true that Youtube commentors are also agreeing, then maybe he's onto something!

Reading all these memories about hockey and families and Jets history and childhood dreams and upbringing .... have really made my morning. Thank you all for your wonderful sharing. Such a lovely read compared to most GDTs and PGTs.

These posts reminded me of a game (?) we used to play in uni which involved each girl listing the qualities she'd most want in a husband. The best answer was determined by popular vote. I remember one time the winning quality was: Often reads books to his children.

I'm in such a good mood right now, I'm not even angry (well, maybe just a little) to discover that our game against the Leafs tomorrow morning is not available on the edge of the ocean. I'd grumble longer but I've just finished a long, large lunch and I'm in desperate need of an award-winning nap.

Funny that as my wife and I were just talking about parenting. I always made time to read to my son before bed, even if it was the long version of Polar Express (it really is long) Great memories and so glad I made that effort.
Proud as a dad could be as he just graduated with honours in Molecular Biology.

Imagine if we didn't win 5-0 and only won 3-2 , this place would be very sour right now.

It depends how they played. The score does not always reflect the play. The fact they won without l1 scoring is the biggest takeaway

The next game against Toronto should give us a real good idea, as to where this team stands. The Leafs are a good club, and if the Jets beat them, it will be a big statement game.

Tough to put too much weight either way because both teams are heading into a break.

Kids had a couple games for a hockey tourney today. Got to watch a bit of the Jets practice and the kids got to fist-bump all the Jets players coming off the ice after practice.

Seeing KFC and Chef one-time pucks practicing the PP was great, those guys have unreal shots. Vilardi is a large human, looks way bigger up close haha.

Morrissey is a class act and signed a ton of stuff foe all the kids. It was a great time.

Watching those guys up close gives a better idea of how f***ing good they are

We often forget that "these guys are good". Everyone in the NHL is a very good hockey player, even Stan. The guys in the CHL are really good, much less the pro leagues. I knew a few guys who made the old WCHL and they were a lot better than the rest of us, and some of the rest of us were not too bad.

Speak for yourself, I was pretty, pretty bad.

Physicality. Kaprizov, Zuccarello, Boldy and Rossi are not the most physical matchups the Jets are going to get, they took advantage of fatigue, with better legs.

Tkachuk, Batherson and the bottom line players are going to be more physical than what the Jets saw last night.

You can't always outskate physicality. Sometimes have to match it.

or exceed it with goaltending
