Post-Game Talk: Jets beat Habs in OT 5-4

[raideralex99]

I almost can’t remember how it feels like to lose :O

But I got really mad at Ehlers in OT when he had Laine with an open net for a tap in and instead he tried to shoot. It was one of the most egoistic plays I’ve seen, he’d rather take a shot from not even that good a position than for the team to win. That’s not a team player. I lost a lot of respect for the guy.

And if he would have passed and Laine missed ... you would have said he should of shot it.

What a time to be alive

Feel sorry for all Jets fans who have already past...

I want to see Roslovic paired up with Connor, those two have terrific chemistry. I also saw how good Ehlers is with Connor as well.

Laine-Scheifele-Wheeler
Connor-Roslovic-Ehlers

So many weapons...

 

[OldCraig71]

We would have but the ref figured it was garbage time and thought the home fans would appreciate some late game suspense.

None of our board appreciated it, we needed a regulation loss.

 

[John Agar]

Had to indulge the Rod tonight...

Good concert...

Hard leaving though...

The aisles were jammed with wheelchairs and the access lanes next to the building wall to wall Handi-transit...

Only a Rod Stewart crowd could make me feel so young...

Good to hear we spanked the Habs in OT...

Congrats Conn0ry on your 30th...

I just went to post this in roster thread as our top 6 next season!

After tonight there is little doubt he is not a NHL player. I'm guessing the organization wanted this look to help inform decisions going forward.

Wow did he ever look good in overtime.
He has some work to do defensively still but I’m sure he was plenty nervous out there and a bit apprehensive. But the talent oozes from him.

Good call Garrett when he was drafted!!

If the Leafs would have won their 50th TSN would have assembled 2 panels and have a 3 hour slurp fest, we get a quick goodnight. I miss Jets TV

Thats why I switch to 1290 as soon as they abandon Jets coverage.

 

[Andy6]

I'd gladly take another Teppo!

Of course he could also be another John Albert, if we're into Jets' first-shot scorers.

 

[puck stoppa]

Buff had a rough night.
And although refs had rough night too, some of our lazy and dumb penalties were penalties and need to be cleaned up by playoffs.

 

[Mestaruus]

Anybody notice the poor man Karlsson reference on Niku kinda looked the part in OT

Both got to keep the pucks for different reasons in their previous games.

 

[Tommigun]

I didn't see that but if true, I agree.

3:21 left in OT. 100% certain goal.

 

[PerryPooley]

Preds have 2 pretty tough games to end the season. Would be pretty cool to finish first in the Central.

 

[Georgetown Al]

Niku was really good.

Congrats...

Sami Nik u one in....

[Tommigun]

And if he would have passed and Laine missed ... you would have said he should of shot it.

No it was a tap in into an empty goal.

 

[Jetster231]

Niku needs to add at least another 25 lbs of muscle

 

[CaptainChef]

That reffing was ****

Can anyone tell me how often we've come out ahead in the penalty parade this year? Seems like 9 out of 10 games we get the lions share, but maybe thats just the way it seems.

 

[DowntownBooster]

Looks really strange to see us so close to the top like this. Quite a nice look to 50-20-10 too - such symmetry.

Yes, it's too bad the season couldn't have ended at 80 games since those are nice numbers.

 

[Georgetown Al]

We Are Blessed....

Thanks TNSE...

Go Go

 

[Howard Chuck]

The talent we are sitting or sending to the moose is insane. Our depth is incredible.

 

[Neuf]

The future is so freaking bright. Short and Long term.

 

[Just Forfun]

I hope Ehhlers doesn’t get to 30 after prioritizing his 30 instead of a team win. Can’t believe he didn’t pass to Laine who had a wide open net with an easy tap in in OT :/

Ehlers had a good game. Love it when he turns on the jets and carries the puck. So many moves.

 

[puck stoppa]

Lets not forget Poolman and his nice game and sweet feed to Roslo. Bottom pair by next Xmas:
Niku Poolman

No it was a tap in into an empty goal.

How many times are you planning on repeating this?

There are many poor decisions made by many players over the course of a game. Yes, he probably should have passed it. He didn't. Oh well - the sun will rise tomorrow.

 

[EpicGingy]

No it was a tap in into an empty goal.

Both Laine and Ehlers were basically right up to the goal line and near Price so I'm willing to bet Price blocks that pass 9/10 times.

It's not nearly as selfish a play as you're making it out to be.
