Sumtimes you have to accept the lose...

Whole game has been off balance BAD.

Unless the Jets come out trying to lose, we're not getting a win.

Jeez, am I the only one who saw the Jets control most of that second period and the majority of the first? Vegas scored on their opportunities, Jets for whatever reason are struggling to score just like they did at home vs Nashville. Vegas isn't giving much up, but they're not pressing the attack anywhere near as much. Jets get one and this game is going to open up and get crazy.
Vegas playing a very good road game.

Yeah, I never once said they had no chance of winning the series at all unlike multiple jets fans in this very thread. I said the Knights will in the series in 5 games, and hope the hometown hero Ryan Reaves scores a hatty, that's it. If the Jet's win, they win. At least be honest when trying to conversate.

I'd believe you were sincere if you said Eakin.

Yup. It's pretty risky to try and hold a two goal lead against a strong offensive team, but they're doing a good job getting in the lanes and keeping narrow gaps everywhere.
I'd say there are maybe 5-6 teams in the league that can get away with doing what Vegas is doing right now and two of them are playing in this series.

All the same its still not the best strategy. Vegas should be pressing the issue offensively first, THEN sticking to the prevent defense that has been working for them. All it takes is one breakdown for this strategy to fail.

Seems like a problem in all major sports though really. Football, Baseball, Basketball, Soccer, and hockey. It's tough to get perfection out of the human element. But it's frustrating all the same.
In baseball, everything but strikes and balls is pretty straight forward and called consistently. A foul, a homerun, an out are all called and all are subject to review and being overturned. Balls and strikes are usually pretty consistently good or bad for both teams. Each Ump has his strike zone and calls it. Basketball, Soccer, and Hockey are probably the worst officiated sports in my opinion.

That's true. Objectively speaking I'd say soccer is the worst. There isn't a game I watch where I don't say "what the f*** is the ref thinking" at least twice.

Sure, you didn't tell this series was over, that Vegas will steamroll on the Jets and the Jets had no business to be in the WCF. At least try to remember what you told when trying to conversate.
