Post-Game Talk: Jets 5 - Blues 3, Lead series 1-0

[flyingkiwi]

I take it you have a bad leak, that sucks, hopefully you can get it repaired.

Crack appeared in the ceiling and at one point I counted 8 separate droplets all falling fast. It calmed down and I got to enjoy the third and have a sleep before it started again a few hours ago.

Landlord replied quickly at least.

He just was far stronger than the other guy...he was Buffy wrestling him downward by the scruff while talking to a zebra at one point.

Sanskrit.

Well, I rolled Jesse Helms like a cigarette
And smoked him higher than the highest of the minarets
Jesse James couldn't even handle it
Started looking at me like I was Sanskrit
'Cause in the great shining path of the Great Monster Trucks
There's no such thing as beginner's luck

Too much screaming when the Jets scored, you cracked your ceiling. It's worth it then .

 

[kanadalainen]

I just want to thank the Hockey Gods for putting on this game at midnight in Europe. Any later and I would have said screw it an gone to bed...

Hats off to you, thats a late start!!

Or maybe from doing this after the Jets win .....

I thought we looked nervous in the beginning and somehow it felt like a typical playoff game of the last 2-3 years.

However, we battled, we fought, we ran and we came back to win it. I know it's just one game, but we would have lost that game last year.

I'm very proud, Scheifele and Connor answered the call and talk about the atmosphere in the building... holy shit!

Bring on game 2, I can't wait!

The way the third period was going once the Jets got the tying goal is was just a matter of time. Minute and a half left in the game was cutting it close though

 

[Edgar Halliwax]

The piling on Helle in the first was way over the top

Damned right. He did have a sub-par period, but according to those clowns, Helly has no idea where he should be in the net... They went on and on...

 

[10Ducky10]

Arnie is a better coach than Bones.... especially in-game coacing.

 

[bustamente]

Officials need to tell Brayden Schenn to stop lifting when going for hits, either that or some Jet will have to settle him down. After he hurts someone will be to late

 

[puck stoppa]

Blues came to play, they started out very well give them credit. Jets found their game the latter two periods and dominated. Clean up special teams a bit and stay the course and we should be fine. Will be a tough series for sure but we are the better team.

 

[kanadalainen]

I'm very proud, Scheifele and Connor answered the call and talk about the atmosphere in the building... holy shit!

Well said.

In sober afterthought, Schuffles was definitely the Jets best player.

 

[kanadalainen]

Damned right. He did have a sub-par period, but according to those clowns, Helly has no idea where he should be in the net... They went on and on...

It mimicked the drivel slithering forth from the mains. That and the residual Habs-fuelled dislike of Schuffles.

 

[bustamente]

The way Iafallo is playing with the top line it's going to be hard to take him off of it if and when Vilardi comes back, it's a great problem to have

 

[Jet]

Salmonid of the game:

Had himself a beautiful goal on a beautiful feed by Scheifele (also with a goal and multiple assists).

Also pounded some random Blue in the dying seconds of the third.

He absolutely face f***ed Jake Neighbors.

 

[bustamente]

The groans from Apples missing the net to the crowd erupting after Lurch putting the dagger in was very satisfying.

 

[Jet]

While you’d want Helle to maybe stop 1 of those 3, he didn’t really have much chance on them. And he did stop Kyrou on that breakaway, which could have been a backbreaker.

I really didn't like the third goal. It was a great shot, but helle had plenty of time to get set. The first goal wasn't awesome either but it was from closer in.

 

[Jet]

I was angry at that non- call. Clear interference.

Yeah and the guy who did it was the goal scorer. Bad non call especially after the horrid interference call that led to their first goal

 

[HPsauce]

Big game Binnington huh? Bro was leaky as f***. At least Helly’s goals were great shots.

I was there, birds eye for the goals. Helle was down early and goal line sitting for those goals. Timid and gave up the whole top of the net. Easy goals. Not helle.

Through the 2nd after that 3rd goal there was a TV time out I saw Comms and Helle talking and it looked like maybe he told him to get big or something bc helle depth was great from them on. On the Bway i thought he got a little lucky that Kyrou didn't raise that puck, but I'm not the all world G and he saw something I didn't and made the game saving save imo.

Helle, we trust. This team finds ways to win, they have been doing this all season. Clutch.

 

[kanadalainen]

He absolutely face f***ed Jake Neighbors.

A fecked Neighbour on the ice is a sight to warm the heart.

 

[Jet]

They skipped the 3rd pair a couple times. Stan, Samberg and Schenn all struggled. I'm usually quick to defend Stanley, but how are we not playing Miller..... assuming either him or 5 can play left side

Yeah they really need to go with Fleury next game. Stan/ Schenn isn't it. I hope snerg got the yips out of his system last night.

As much as we complain about Stanley, Samberg playing like that is far more impactful.

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

Guilty. I was ready for a total rebuild...

Thankfully I have no influence on any hockey decisions made by the Jets organization.

Did you want to get rid of Scheifele, or was it simply that you wanted to trade him rather than letting him walk? Big difference.

I wanted to trade both Scheifele and Helle in the summer of 23 but only because it appeared that both would refuse to extend here. It was always extend if possible, trade if not.

AFAIK it was the same for everyone else?

 

[Jets 31]

The way Iafallo is playing with the top line it's going to be hard to take him off of it if and when Vilardi comes back, it's a great problem to have

One of Vilardi or Iafallo goes to the second line, Neo the third and Appleton the 4th . This armchair coaching is very easy.

 

[Gil Fisher]

The Jets took over the game in the second half and really shut the Blues down, but I think the turning point was Hellebuyck making that breakaway save near the end of the second. That was massive.

I could've lived with more of a "Kyle Connooooooooooor" from Harnarayan Singh, but there's always next game.

Winning is a regular hoot.

On to Game 2!

He was surprised by the play. Apparently, he didn't recognize the set play from practice.
