I'm typically on the optimistic side but I echo the sentiments regarding the unlikelihood of a W tonight.
I mentioned yesterday that I disagreed with starting Hellebuyck against Nashville, but when he leaves the rink with another shutout it's hard to argue too much with the decision. That said, this is kind of a shite position to put your backup in. It's going to require a big time performance from The Brick and most importantly, a strong
desire on the boys part if they want to win the last game of 2024. It would be oh so sweet if they did.
The schedule has done the Jets no favors here, but Ottawa proved it's not impossible to win the second of a btb. After a tough loss against our Jets, they went into Minnesota and beat the Wild. It is pretty ridiculous they have to face Colorado again next week coming off another btb, but that's neither here nor there, yet.
No matter how the game goes this evening, there's not much to sulk in your champaign about as a Jets fan. Aside from the playoff series against this Avalanche team, it's been a damn swell year of Winnipeg Jets hockey. I wouldn't want to pull... for another club.
Here's hoping 2025 is even better and I wish all you fans of the best team in the NHL a happy and healthy New Year!
Btw, don't forget to constantly update
