Xenforo Cloud will be upgrading us to version 2.3.5 on March 3rd at 12 AM GMT. This version has increased stability and fixes several bugs. We expect downtime for the duration of the update. The admin team will continue to work on existing issues, templates and upgrade all necessary available addons to minimize impact of this new version. Click Here for Updates
One of the things that marks this season is that their play is sustainable and process seems really good. They look great and have good metrics in general. It's not like we're getting lucky or only winning because of Helle (though he is obviously also playing out of his mind). We've also passed the point where we normally crash into a gigantic slump and still seem to be playing quality hockey.
So, my main hope at this point is just that we carry this form into play-offs. I will be extremely disappointed if we don't make it out of the first round... but after that, knowing how much luck plays a roll in the play-offs... well, anything can happen, but as long as we are actually playing well and deserving of wins I'll consider that a huge step for this team.
Honestly though with the way this season is going, I will feel some disappointment no matter what if we don't go at least to the conference finals.

I definitely think some banners like the divisional title and President trophy would be a big success for this group. But they need to win a round or two for me this year.

For me, it's more about the process
I'm looking for consistent solid efforts and a commitment to playing the system/structure (aka "buy in"). So far this season, there hasn't been much to complain about. A game here and a game there, but that happens to every team
If they end up losing in the first round in the same fashion as last year, it won't be ideal. But if they leave it all on the ice, play the right way and just get beaten by a team that's better, then I'm OK with that
So many things have to go right to win a cup... even really good teams with generational talent need to "catch lightening in a bottle" so to speak

I'mpersonally excited for the complaining about Stanley in the finals.

My goodness, there are so many balanced opinions here, founded on logic and thoughful calm. Love it.
Since the team has clearly gelled, I would like:
- to win a couple of series
- for the Jets to carry their confidence into the post season
- anything else over and above this is pure lutefisk; but I do think they have the bolde to make something happen this year.

SCF; generational goalie, top offensive fwds, norris caliber D.... b2b 110+ pt years indicating it's no fluke. any other team with that make-up & coming up short it's considered a choke job.

The charitable interpretation of this post is that you have not tried lutefisk...

There are tons of great teams that fail to make it to the Stanley Cup finals. While Cup or Bust would be a nice thing, we were never projected to be a Cup favourite, nevermind a Stanley Cup contender at the start of the season. Get out of the first round, which has been their bugbear for the last six years. I would consider that a marginal success. Give us more than two games of playoff revenue.

Toungues from dried out leather boots can be tarted up to fit any palate.
40 grams of lingonberry jam will even fix a slab of haggis.
Well, even though I voted cup, because that is my 'hope', I'm already really happy with this season. This has been the most fun I've had during a regular season. No drama (except Stanley ) and a team that seems to have gelled and is playing for each other. That makes me the happiest.
Barring any huge injuries, we are completely capable of going all the way. We have great depth and seem to be playing to a system that works for the roster we have.
Anyway, I always hope for the Cup, but this year has already been successful for me as a Jets fan.

Presidents Cup would be nice but for this core group and what the team has done so far this year they have to get to the third round and hopefully further for this season to be a success.
