GDT: Jets Board: WCQF - #1 vs WC#2 : Jets host F*** Vegas @ 3pm CT - Series Tied 1-1

[Ginger Papa]

I used a version of this one a long while back but thought it would be better suited & edited for Playoff Time



.
.
To seek the sacred Stanley Cup
Our Jets will need to pay the price
To break the drought for me & you
and win it on our hometown ice

I have heard the whispered tales
Of winning this trophy
For us a mystery
From the champions book, we need a clue

We topped the frozen salary cap
At Chevy’s hands we know
Running this Team’s show
Searching for our first, Stanley Cup
Stanley Cup

Withstanding all the hurt we’ve known
Years one to present one
To taste just once the winners life
As a long suffering Winnipeg fan
To the playoffs we have returned
Our Jets shall pay the price
To break the drought for me & you
and win it on our hometown ice,
Oh, on our Whiteout ice!

So many years have come and gone
And time is passing by
Our patience you can’t deny
Frozen in an everlasting fugue

Waiting for the losing to end
Weary of our plight
Wanting the Team to fight

Another Season lost?, or a Stanley Cup?
Stanley Cup

Withstanding all the hurt we’ve known
Years one to present one
To taste just once the winners life
As a long suffering Winnipeg fan

But each year we shall return
Watching the Jets pay the price
To break the drought for me & you
And win it all on our hometown ice,
Oh, our Whiteout ice!

I'd put Chef on D

The home crowd will unleash a big deal of energry tonight and carry our players to victory.

I haven't watched much of the playoffs other than the two Jets games, until tonight, I tried to catch a couple of game. Every ad on Rogers I saw promoted 3 games tomorrow, the Leafs of course, since Rogers owns them, the Rangers-Devils, and the late game of Colorado-Seattle.

Only 3 Canadian teams made the playoffs this year, and you think as a Canadian broadcaster you would advertise that the Jets are playing at home nonetheless, Whiteout you know...but nope not even worth advertising or promoting. Rogers does a disgrace to our hockey team, let's give them what they don't want, another round of hockey.

Thanks @Ginger Papa - nothing like a bit of ground control.

The Jets (and Winnipeg) find themselves on the world's stage again, despite the careful non-efforts of CBC/SN.

Canadian Prog Rock band Rush deployed Shakespearian references and snippets of the Bard's prose to great effect. Like some of Shakey's best work - what we have here are the ingredients that open the floodgates, and evokes visceral responses that are the basis of any decent and self-respecting tragedy.

Hear me out - are the Jets snubbed by the lack of attention of the national Canadian media? - perhaps.

Does this perception add to their mystique? - Oh yes. Its a threat that becomes the opportunity..

All that aside:

A Jet-centric recipe for success this game: - top 6 scoring, isolation and suppression of Stone and the Floor Mop. KFC and his mates activate as in game 1, and our D begin to contribute.
Intangibles - the home crowd.

From wiki: " "All the World's a Stage" - The album was recorded at Massey Hall during the band's breakthrough 2112 tour. The title of the album uses reference to Shakespeare's As You Like It, which would again be referenced by Rush in the 1981 song "Limelight" ".

From "Limelight" itself -

All the world's indeed a stage
We are merely players
Performers and portrayers
Each another's audience outside the gilded cage

Let the gilded cage be Canada Life - here we go

 

[kanadalainen]

When Jets deploy the lines that score all the time,
And see Golden Toasters brave day sunk in hideous night;
When I behold a Stone and desert team past prime,
And roaring fans - 20 thou bodies silvered o'er with white;
When lofty trees on yon prairie I see barren of leaves,
Which alloweth light and heat to roast the visiting herd,
And Vegas’ summer's green all girded up in sheaves,
Borne on the ice with Jet-white* and bristling word,
Then of thy Jett’d beauty do I heartily awake,
Yo, the Golden Fallibles among the wastes of time must go,
Since fair–play sweet those Roasters do themselves forsake
And die as fast as they see our Jets grow;
And nothing 'gainst Game 3’s scythe can Bro make defence
Save luck, which will fail him when he takes thee hence.



*Jet-black? Hell naw

Thanks @Ginger Papa for the laughs once again. Really nice that we got that new portrait of the Queen in the Canada life center just in time for the White-out playoffs against Vegas.

 

[Jets 31]

Music for tonight, let's all sing.GO JETS GO , WHOOO

 

[Jets 31]

And the new White-out song.

 

[Jets 31]

[Gil Fisher]

#GoJetsGo #MOT

f*** Vegas (and f*** Fulham)

 

[SUX2BU]

Thanks Ginger

f*** vegas

 

[FonRiesen]

Heading out to the cabin today - so that means I'm stuck with Sportsnet... Let's make Galley weep and crush his withered simulacrum of a soul that's so twisted with the hatred of our beloved Jets (by destroying the Knigits)!

Today will be The Real Test™ in seeing if we can respond to F*Vegas' adjustments. I have hope in Bowness' coaching team.

Whiteout fans, make us proud, don't give up like the F*Vegas fans did in game 1!

GO JETS GO!

Football (soccer) and beer during the afternoon for me today. ideal pregame action for our big game tonight.

 

[Zippity]

Will 55 show up today?

 

[Jets 31]

Will 55 show up today?

The whole top 6 needs to play better than in game 2's second and 3rd periods.

 

[The Blue Baron]

Thanks @Ginger Papa

FAWK VEGAS!

Me later on arriving at Life Center…

Gonna be there with WHITE BELLS in today. Let’s show up with enthusiasm gentlemen!!

GO JETS GO, GO JETS GO, GO JETS GO…

 

[Johnny HFBOARDS]

Print and glue over any beer!

 

[SensibleGuy]

I want to see a whole bunch of skating and hitting and shooting and scoring and a good team effort and lots of energy and emotion and commitment to the gameplan and focus and attention to detail with lots of big saves today!!!!


From The Jets that is, Vegas? F*** Vegas.

 

[Aggie204]

Winnipeg, it’s been a while since we’ve seen a White Out. Is Ehlers in? Let’s do this! GoJetsGo!

 

[macmaroon]

Thanks @Ginger Papa, another gem of a GDT. Let's hope the crowd can enspire the team to repeat the play of Game One...

T-shirt of the day...

Go Jets Go!

Oh, and f**k Vegas...

 

[UFO]

I'm very confident for today. If Nino scores we will win. If he doesn't score, still we will win.

 

[Guardian17]

Thanks for the GDT @Ginger Papa !

They said on Sportsnet that 78% of teams that win Game 3 win the series.

The core of this team needs to step up and find a way to win this game.

F*ck Vegas !!

 

[surixon]

We need to come out hard and maintain our level of play.

 

[bustamente]

Today's game play should be easy, do not let F*** Vegas dictate play
