Post-Game Talk: Jets tame the mustard kittens 3-0

[Mortimer Snerd]

It does if you believe it does.

So its a virtual link,

Sure you’re not Friedman in disguise?

Damn, busted!

 

[Buffdog]

Is it only the actual word 'shutout' or are oblique references also taboo?

The broadcast crew mentioned it but were careful not to use the word.

Good question

But saying "the word" is certainly frowned upon most, if not almost universally

Yeah, MacK will eat that 2nd pair's lunch and supper tomorrow night. Dude is f***ing scary.

Especially when he has been waiting for 3 days to play this game while the Jets played 2 games in those 3 nights.

 

[Jets 31]

Just another win, getting boring already.PP and Helly just keep rolling, time to dance.....

 

[sipowicz]

Tried listening to the game on OB’ but screaming Edmonds is hard to take, guess he is a big improvement over the previous corpse Munz!

 

[UFO]

I dig our PP.

 

[VictoriaJetsFan]

Morrissey was a shutdown machine tonight...great game...love that man.

 

[GNP]

That Villardi trade looking real real good right now. LA must be kicking themselves to making that deal.

 

[DEANYOUNGBLOOD17]

We were all pulling for the shut out despite some posters mentioning the unmentionable before the mentionable materialized

I mentioned that loudly at the game tonight… when the score was 1 / nil…. Just B4 we got the Pps and Vilardi scored twice.

In this instance it was not a curse to say it but ignited the 3/ nil victory.

I was wondering a bit @ the end though .!

Just when Stanley iced the puck with 15 seconds to go!

My first game of the season, great atmosphere and great showing from the team. We're half a back-to-back away from ending the year right!

Dancing Gabe give you any dancing tips?

Its really too bad A.I. makes 4mill a year because he can literally play on any line and not skip a beat

I wouldn't mind him back for 3 million a season but ya 4 is too much.

 

[Channelcat]

Vilardi is a master at creating space around the net. That "push off" on his first goal was sweet. Best 10 foot player in the league

 

[sipowicz]

Sounds like the Jets really missed tiny Heiny who looks to be closer to Niku 2.0 than a good future NHL level D man!

Hard to believe how hyped the guy was the past few years

Dancing Gabe was sporting a fancy Happty New Year make shift Minny top hat at the game tonight .

Looking Good Gabe!!!

 

[jokesondee]

That broadcast team was way more positive toward the Jets than any Canadian broadcasting team.

I actually stayed out of the GDT so that I could focus on the broadcast. I wanted to actually get a feel for what Prime was delivering and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised.

I don't know if it was by design or just a good crew but they were pretty much unbiased from my perspective. There was a pretty good balance of commentary, coverage and features on both teams. Talk about Nashville's off-season and their struggles. Talk about the Jets and how well many of the players are playing.

I honestly can't remember them making reference to another Canadian team and they didn't seem butt hurt that the Jets actually won.

Now off to cancel Amazon Prime...

I hate the fact that this is the way the world is going with sports only available on streaming platforms, but i have to admit i quite liked the commentators for Amazon Prime and enjoyed the broadcast. Much better than those assclowns at Sportsnet.

He likely won’t be making $4 M next season as he will be a UFA. I don’t think he even gets $3 M next season

Get used to it streaming is the future, cable much like radio is dying a slow death

Al is definitely a top 9 player somewhere around the league. A luxury to have on the 4th line here. He'll get paid alright.

He's the kind of player that every coach wants on his team, someone will over pay for him.

Matches the eye-test of Stanley having a really, really good game

 

[JetsWillFly4Ever]

Is Helle gonna win another Vezina? Do you guys remember Pavelec? How lucky are we?

Also, Prime broadcast is pretty damn good. Much higher picture quality than you get over cable.

Winning > losing.

Remember back to FA frenzy, how everyone crowned the Preds having the best summer in the NHL, were then crowned cup favourites………..I’m never sad about not having any big FA signings in July, I swear it’s a trap for GM’s.

Sure but on the other hand, I felt like quite a number of veteran users here were like "sure they look good on paper but let's see how smart throwing out those contract to potentially 'washed up players' will look like eventually". But I don't think anybody would have predicted them to be THIS bad.

I'd be so freaking frustrated as a Preds fan right now. Future looks dim.
