GDT: Kēmu/Game 40 - Canucks @ Jets 8/01 2pm - Kiwi Summer Hockey Edition

I also think that Helly isn't a sharp after several days off. He's feeling it rn and id hate to disrupt that.

I know we don't want to wear him out but it's finding that balance. I trust this coaching staff to make the right decision

He'd get the start Tuesday in Detroit given it's where he's from, but I think this is a game that screams play your backup. We'll find out soon.

With an afternoon game, they won't have a morning skate so it probably won't be until warmup that we find out. Unless the Jets announce the lineup prior.

Great GDT as usual, especially that first video clip.

I've wanted to visit New Zealand ever since I first saw The Lord of the Rings. Such an astounding array of scenery, plus they have the greatest political leader in the world.

I'm hoping the rust falls off the returning four and they regain their normal rhythm or timing or wind or whatever and we lay a major pounding on these Canucks.

I know they have one great hockey fan @flyingkiwi ...

Go Jets Go !!!

By the way, what is f*** in Māori…..

Waiting for 9pm to roll around like

And here in Winnipeg, it is trying to get in anything that needs to be done before 2:00 PM puck drop. Just about ready to take my dog for a walk. But it is a nice sunny day at only - 11 C, with not much in the way of wind.

It literally means boiled head. But the head is the most sacred part of the body and boiling (and eating) it would be the ultimate desecration.

This GDT is brought to you by:
the beautiful Māori language,
classic NZ TV ads,
and flyingkiwi's nostalgia for watching the Jets on long summer afternoons.

Great job Kiwi. Once were Kings is one of the best movies I have ever seen...Nice to have New Zealand represented in our fanbase...

Should be a good game. I hope the stars are a little more synchronized against a weaker opponent.

Thanks kiwi, good stuff.
New Zealand is on my bucket list of places to visit. I will be sure to pack my togs.

Say no to “has been” Canadian acts doing anthems please, makes me miss Stacey.

Wonder how much energy this game will have?

Was reading some Elliott Friedman stories and it sounds like some in Vancouvers dressing room are “done” waiting to be moved.

BRING BACK THE REDHEAD!!!!!

 

[ElysiumAB]

Thank God Ehlers is back.

Not just because I have so many of his rookie cards...

 

[Potrzebie]

I really hope Ehlers scores today. I love it when he scores against the Canucks just to remind them that they passed him over for Jake Virtanen.

BRING BACK THE REDHEAD!!!!!

You mean this one.

Fascinating! Thank you!

Wow she is spectacular!

Seems like the Jets play the ‘Nucks every other week. They’re like that turd that doesn’t flush.

Speaking of New Zealand, doesn’t their water flush counter-clockwise?

I hope the good guys sweep the season.

Haukerekerehia!

Our toilets flush straight down because the whole dang bowl isn't filled with water!
On the other hand I finally understood why American school movies featured bullies "dunking" kids' heads in toilet bowls without fracturing their skulls...

And oh my god the gaps in the public toilet stall walls! And the partitions so far off the ground!

North America what are you doing with your toilets man

The Jets have a back to back against the Oilers in March home and away. That'll feel even worse.

Our older fans will remember the troff at the old Winnipeg Arena. Don't look right or left, and don't make strange noises while doing your thing

Hey Bryan Adams isn't my favorite but you can't deny the success he has had especially being from Canada. How about a Canadian band i saw a few times at the Zoo , Dubois could be our Dirty weapon.

Can we get kickaxe on the ice?

 

[None]

Actually pleasantly surprised that Rittich is starting.

So a couple extras for warm up. Wonder if a couple players are still dealing with injuries?

 

[bustamente]

Cannot take this game lightly or at the end of the game the Jets will be wondering why they lost, anyways I wanna be able to post this during the game in favour of the Jets
