Post-Game Talk: Jets Smash Preds 6-2

[DharmaBum]

Uggh, the "guarantee victory" thing is sooooo played out. Soooo lame.

*I see no irony in posting a GIF about lameness that stars a Nashville music prodigy whose antics are lame and played out*

 

[LucianoBorsato]

Rinne rocking an .887 for the series

 

[LucianoBorsato]

Sooooo funny. The crowd is in the middle of their lame routine they do after every goal. “It’s all your fault, it’s all your fault. Hellebuuuuuyk, hellebuuuuuuyk”...goal, goal, goal lmao.

So sick of hearing their scripted crap, was glad to enjoy the silence in the third. I've cut farts louder than the decibel meter they were showing.

Yah sorry PK, you arent Mark f***ing Messier to be doing that

Let’s not get overconfident- preds missed at least two open nets in the first; this game could easily have gone south. I’m expecting a tough game on Monday and would not be shocked if the series goes to 7

 

[Cellee]

That was something else....and due to travel issues from Vancouver to Victoria, I missed most of it. I am an unhappy camper due to that....however...we were great

Does anyone have any advice on finding the full game on the internet? anyone....please..

IDK if these were already brought up, but some TOI stats:

Subban 25:24
Josi 24:25
Ekholm 23:40
Arvidsson 22:01
Ellis 21:57
Buff 21:54
Johansen 21:51
Trouba 21:37
Myers 20:31
Morrissey 20:27

The Preds had to ride with their selection of stars, whereas Maurice and Huddy did a superb job distributing the ice time evenly. Scheifele led our forwards with 18:55. Every single player on the ice played 10 minutes or more.

 

[suihkukone]

What a great day. First Finland beat South-Ubangaland 8-1 and now this on top.
Only thing missing was Ehler's goal and I'd be very confident on Monday.

 

[Farmboy Patty]

Connor had his breakout game.
Now its time for Ehlers or Laine to step up in game 6.

Who would have predicted Winnipeg vs Vegas in the conference final? Could happen by monday night

Ehlers is due for a goal. Laine's been good and got the ball rolling with his shot that went off of Stastny. It was Ehlers who created that play by drawing two players on him so one could argue that he stepped up as well. Our Jets are looking pretty good!

 

[ryerockarola]

Connor showed some sick skills, what a time to do it!

 

[snowkiddin]

Love the effort. Let’s close it out now boys. It isn’t over yet.

One might even say he out-coached Lavy

 

[sipowicz]

Hendricks entertained the troops and is in his natural position. I'd play him there again.

Gramps entertained with old time stories about his days in the ECHL, the AHL, his final game in the NHL, hemorrhoids.......stuff like that!

Sip that sounds like a night of you entertaining!

I'm pretty sure Maurice isn't taking our advice here -either way.

_____________________________________________________

I believe "strongly" you and many other posters are "wrong" about this, and underestimate the "political clout" this forum has on Jet's policy and game plans. This is a business, and we are their customers--you can "bet" the Jet's executive and Maurice read these forums--"I have no doubt"

There was an uproar about Maurice playing Hendricks on here--and the panelists, made it very clear--they wanted Perrault in, and Hendricks out and we got our way.

All corporations pay "thousands" of dollars to survey companies to know what their customer base is thinking--the Jet's have this survey base for free. They are for sure going to read it.

Let me be clear --these forums "will not"-- dictate Jet's policy -- but they will strongly influence it--so we must be vigilant and persistent in our posts.

Think of it this way --in the business sense--"every home game"--is worth about $ 2 million bucks to the JETS-- do you not think they are going to read these forums ??- of course they are--I have--"no doubt"-- the recent Perrault debate is an example. ( Perrault / Hendricks)

JETS FANS-- Keep on posting--especially when you don't like something--it all has it's effect. Great Jet's win--thanks Jet's executive for listening to some of the very knowledgeable, astute posters on here --"great win."

 

[GNP]

Reports out of Nashville- now listing Peka Rinne as day to day-- until the team dermatologist clears him from "goal light neck burn"- game time decision.

I thought this was interesting:


For the twitter blind, you may be able to see this GAR chart:

Nashville is pretty far behind the Jets in GAR for forwards. Vegas also looks really strong by this measure (a tougher opponent than even Nashville).

So by this chart, maybe Cheveldayoff isn't an asshole for building a team from the wings-back.

(Pepperidge Farms and HF Boards don't remember, but I do. )

 

[RageQuit77]

The series is over when it's over.

Jets have two chances left, when Preds cannot waste their next one. Still, I wouldn't go through to roof with celebrations yet.

Nashville Predators ain't no beer league team first time in difficult situation. Anyway...

GO JETS GO!

 

[Daximus]

Could someone who was at one of the home games send me a whiteout towel. I will pay shipping if you have more than one. Two would be even better.

Nah, those plays happen both ways. In the previous game Rinne stopped the puck with the knob of his stick on a sure goal. This game Wheeler had a wide open net as well that he failed to score on. We should be confident, because our Jets have proven to be the superiour team so far, and had we had a healthy lineup during our reg season games vs the preds, we probably would be the President trophy winners and not them.

So why were you are not in PO last year? Goalies?

Goalies, coaching and discipline were the main reasons.

Goalies, coaching and discipline were the main reasons.

But still, such a huge jump, from non playoff team to Cup favorite, like just a little tweak things were made and it was enough.
#bandwagon fan btw. Close it in 6, please.

Dallas has the 4th highest defensive GAR in the league?
