Post-Game Talk: HC 5 - Jets 2

[scelaton]

Wouldn't the sad sacks have more to post about after an awful game?

I think the game was so unequivocally bad that there's not really any debate to fire up the back and forth posts.

Plus it was a late game and I haven't even had a chance to watch it - and what a moribund place this board is without me chiming in!

Well, thank goodness you are back, with your endless cheerfulness! Now watch me bring you down to earth with a single word:

Truth is, unequivocally bad games used to attract more critical posts, but many "sad sacks" have likely reduced their posting or walked away precisely because of the name-calling and other inhospitable responses.

In the end, it really is unclear how good a team this is because of their behaviour in recent seasons, so no amount of posturing on either side really proves anything. I'm a skeptic, not by nature but by experience, but it is hard to argue with Vezina goaltending, an (almost) Norris level D, an outperforming number one line and solid coaching. Now they just have to play to their potential in a series of short sample size playoff matches, where anything can happen.

You think the Leafs are winning the Cup? What has Toronto done in the playoffs in the last 60 years ? Weird you have faith in them and not the Jets.

The leafs did win a round two years back and are tied for 3rd overall with one less win than the Jets. Berube has won a cup as a coach and even the Cubs curse of not winning a World Series ended. I feel it is the leafs season to win it. I am not saying the Jets cannot but I am concerned about their ability to play playoff hockey (hate to sound like a broken record).

Lets just say i don't agree , Toronto got to the second round last year but hadn't gotten to the second round since 2004 . The Jets went to the Conference final in 2018 , Toronto hasn't gotten to the conference final since 1993 .

Oh I see, you’re just a hypocrite.
