Kind of a blah game overall, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Didn't think either teams top offensive players really came to play or generated lot of sustained offense or prime chances.

These aren't patsies that we are playing down the stretch, and beating them in their building should tell even the none believers that this team is a very good team and if they play the way they have to they will win more than they will lose which is very important in a seven game series
Very well said. It is time to throw out all the negative narratives around here. We might not win the cup, but 79 games so far this season says we have legitimately made our way into the discussion.

The Jets are the best team in the west when they play their game. They showed that once again tonight. It's frustrating watching them play like this and then look back on their recent losing streak. That inconsistency they suffer badly from screwed them over for first place.

We don't have to be the odds-on favorite to win the cup; such a team, despite winning well more often than any other seeding, still is a healthy underdog to not win the championship. As long as we're in the "I can see how this team could win a championship without me going 'how the hell did THAT happen?" pile, I'll be as ready as any for the playoffs :)

You're right, it's been very frustrating. I try to keep in mind that during the recent losing streak, a fair number of players were suffering from what was apparently a vicious flu. I hate to make excuses, but I can't help but think that played a role in their poor play during the losing streak. How could it not?

These Jets have it in them to play really sound hockey -
I wasn't sure what to expect tonight - almost thought they were mailing this one in without Helle
But they played a super structured game that had the Stars mumbling to themselves -
Great effort - and great to see against what I consider the team to beat in the west.
It would be very interesting to look back on all the games this year to see how structured we play in front of LB as opposed to Helle.

But this is true for all teams. No team can keep up the consistency for 82 games. And trying to is a fools errand as it will just burn you out early. Every team this year has had their periods of looking like shit. Getting hot and being healthy come puck drop in the playoffs is all that really matters.

I did not expect that result tonight. Bravo Jets! Congrats to Croissant for the buttery goodness of a shutout and to the twenty-nine HFJets posters who picked the Jets to win tonight! This, and the New York Rangers game, are how I want to see the Jets play in the playoffs. I give this game five "J.R. Ewing's" out of five...

The Prediction Contest for the game against the Avalanche has been posted for your guesses. Only three games remaining to try to win it, so make sure you're in it! I have already made a GDT for the Colorado game and will post it sometime tomorrow night. The game against the Krakenheads is still available, the last one that is, so if your creative juices are flowing, it is the perfect opportunity to make one final regular season GDT before the Thirteenth Annual GDT Awards are handed out against the Vancouver Canuckleheads. See you all on Saturday! Good night...

Oh, and @sipowicz and company, the game starts at 3:00pm on Saturday...

We had this game, with Scheif playing sub-par. If he reaches his level again Nashville, and Pionk against EDM, we’d be cooking.

Okay thanks for that, so what were your thoughts on the game? Since it is a PGT after all.

Are you sure? I wouldn't want to possibly let a criticism slip and ruin your whole evening.

Besides I'm very busy regrouping for the big attack tomorrow
