Well this GDT is full of lies.
Kypreos doesn't work on SN anymore.
Everything else seems to check out.
The mighty Blue Jackets have made us look pretty silly more often than not.
So the challenge is there to take advantage.
Wasn't it Columbus that came to town with all AHL'ers (almost) and beat us in Winnipeg?
Sometime in the last few years?
Good times.
Yes, last year at the beginning of December. The Jets were at home on a 3 game winning streak. After beating Dallas in OT (Helle had his mask knocked off under a minute left and Dallas scored when the play should have been blown dead) and pummeling Chicago (7-2) and Colorado (5-0) the lowly Blue Jackets rolled into town.
I still remember this game without fondness. It was one of the most aggravating losses of the 22/23 season, for me personally. One that had me questioning early on if those Jets had the minerals. They played flat, weak, uninspired hockey against one of the worst teams in the league. 3 periods of shite. The salt on the wound was letting an ex come back to town and net 2 against us. I believe Laine was on a goal drought heading into the contest as well. It left a bad taste in the mouth.
I'm looking at these Jets to make amends tonight. They head into this match up absolutely flying, against a Columbus team that is still grime on the bottom of the NHL's barrel. Thankfully no Laine on opposition to cause fits, and a Columbus roster that is banged up. This is a game the Jets should be coming out all business. Play their game, give the Jackets nothing, collect 2 points. I'm sure the Winnipeg faithful will give the boys some pre game love, coming home after a brilliant road trip. Post game it should be sticks in the air at the Jets logo, as fans and players salute each other for what is being accomplished in the 204.
I believe this is what we will see.
I believe these Jets are different.
They've got the minerals.
Go Jets Go
