GDT: Game 44 | Jets @ Leafs | Thu Apr 15 7pm | TSN4

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Uhhhh

 

[SoftDumpNtheCorner88]

Ugh... Anybody wanna start the GDT,?

 

[Not My Tempo]

Fingers crossed he just needed to take a shit or something

 

[Not My Tempo]

Uhhh what could’ve even happened to him?

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Man what the f***?

 

[NK94]

Man what the f***?

Well, a win just got more impressive after looking at this lineup. Gross.

 

[Leaftors]

Hmm. Wonder when we’ll hear what’s going on

 

[CanadasTeam]

Jets with another win vs the Sens.

They have pulled to within 5 points, makes this somewhat of a large game.

Expect Campbell to be back in net.

With Robertson out (covid protocol), who slides in? Assume Sabourin stays in and Spezza makes a return maybe.

Looking for the team to get their shit together and bring an honest effort on both sides of the puck, we haven't seen one in a while.

They're getting close.. I think it's reasonable to think they could at least split the next 4 games vs Jets and Leafs still come out ahead by 5 pts (assuming they don't botch the series vs VAN/MTL).

13 games left to go.

LETS GO

4/15 - Winnipeg
4/17 - Vancouver
4/19 - Vancouver
4/21 - Winnipeg
4/23 - Winnipeg
4/24 - Winnipeg
4/28 - Montreal
4/29 - Vancouver
5/1 - Vancouver
5/3 - Montreal
5/6 Montreal
5/8 Montreal
5/12 - Ottawa

 

[Gary Nylund]

Jets gained two points on us with the win against the Senators.

We need to get those points back. If we lose the Jets will be only 3 points behind us.

People on this board get offended when someone says this is a "must win" game if it's not an elimination game, so I will say this is an important win.

Important game for sure, if it's a must win for anyone then it's the Jets. I'd be more than happy to split the upcoming games with them.

Maybe @wingman75 /mods could just update this thread and prefix it with GDT?

 

[al secord]

Oh lawdy

 

[The Hanging Jowl]

Uhhh what could’ve even happened to him?

FFS, really? Please be OK.

 

[Not My Tempo]

 

[Bloomberg]

Man what the f***?

Certainly looks like Matthews will be out of today's game, no? They put Brooks on the 4th line, instead of being a placeholder in Matthew's line

 

[TheTotalPackage]

Am I the only one whose first thought was potential COVID exposure considering the Nylander and Robertson exposures?

Hope he's okay.

 

[Not My Tempo]

There’s a chance the Canucks games get cancelled again. Meaning we might not play again until next week. Foligno, Nylander and Matthews should all be ready to join the team.

The way they've been playing, I think they can win all 4 of the Vancouver games. The rest I'm not so sure. Especially if they have to play players on the first and second lines that don't belong there, to cover absences. We need the reinforcements to arrive.

 

[Bloomberg]

I don't mind if we gave the Kawhi load management treatment to Matthews

 

[CanadasTeam]

I don't mind if we gave him Kawhi load management treatment to Matthews

 

[Stephen]

I don't mind if we gave the Kawhi load management treatment to Matthews

Hopefully that's what it is... also the scoring race to consider.

Hope he's okay.

Matthews already had Covid

The way they've been playing. Are you saying they've been playing well?

Done

 

[Mats13]

Man I hate watching games without Matthews

They’re just not as fun.

Hopefully Marner and JT can go off. Would be fun to beat the Jets without Matthews and Nylander.

 

[johnnyonthspot]

Jets played last night and it is a 4 point game that can all but guarantee you the division. The effort put out in the last two games should not be acceptable. With 71 and 88 returning some players should be playing with more urgency for fear they will be the odd men out.

Jet fan here coming in peace. The Jets are at the end of a long road trip and both teams are coasting . I think this game goes to ot and the Jets win before going on a massive losing streak with the next 6 games after this vs your leafs and the oilers. Should be a sloppy affair with tenders being left hung out to dry!
