WCSF Game 7: Winnipeg Jets @ Nashville Predators | 8 PM ET | CBC, SN, TVAS, NBCSN

That would be the dumbest thing they could do.

fair enough. i don't watch the preds much and know nothing about their backup goaltnder, i just know rinne is typically a vezina contender.

 

[Matt24]

Jets were fortunate that Rinne didn't show up and Preds were fortunate for the refs. Hopefully the better team wins the next 40.

 

[heretik27]

Jets need to play harder in the 2nd. I have a feeling 2 goals will not be enough tonight. They kinda let up after the 2 goal gift lead. Nashville are a great team and they will not go easy until there are triple zeros on the clock.

The dive that led to a goal gave the Preds a bit more jump in their step, Jets lost their legs a bit on the bench.

 

[RomanEmpire]

The old they all do it defense.

Yeah you got me. Preds fan base is the only one in the history of sports that boo the refs when they don’t get a call. Totally right.

 

[adsfan]

Nashville fans want 2 minutes for pushing lol.

Interference for the second push when Hartman tried to get up.

 

[sandysan]

Just started watching, did Rinne get pulled?

Yes, two stinkers

 

[Michel Beauchamp]

He's done nothing his entire career except one norris. But OK

Are you trying to be funny ?

If so, big fail.

If not,

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

Gotta feel for Rinne.. goals were on him sure but man can those bad angle shots and bounces around the net be deadly especially at the start of a game. Never even got good shots to make saves on. And just like that the biggest game of the season is over for you.

 

[Lshap]

No. The coach knows his goalie. People who've watched the Preds know their goalie. He's a choke artist. Pulling him when down 4-0, as you suggested earlier, does nothing. The game is over by then. It was clearly the right move because the Preds immediately responded with a goal. We've got a game now.

Then why start him in game-7?

 

[kmart]

Want to like the Preds, but that would be like rooting for a high school football team with all the chanting about suckage...

better than "go __insert home team__go"

Than trade him. I'm sure there are plenty if teams looking for a goalie of Rinnes Caliber. Buffalo comes to mind.

Interference for the second push when Hartman tried to get up.

It’s game 7 playoff hockey. That’s a borderline call in preseason.

 

[Dough72]

Don Cherry right as always Subban dove

 

[PhilJets]

Sarros is better against the JETS than Rinne.

So JETS really need to clamp down now.

NO MORE PENALTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FAKE SUBBAN is really a pro at baiting other players. AND he is awesome on the power play.

Don't understand why JETS let him shoot. HE should be covered like Preds cover Laine.


This is a good game, no blow out or big lead.
Going down to the wire.

Lets go WHEELER, SCHIEFELE and BUFF

STASTNY is showing the way... follow....


GO JETS GO!!!!

 

[PromisedLand]

should the preds put rinne back in to start the 2nd?

nope. Pekka has already let in 2 soft goals and is probably afraid of the shot right now and will over play his position and may give up more goals. Preds cant afford to give up goals; jets offense is second to none; if pekka is in net; Jets are gonna make it count

hockey has a huge mental toughness element to it; and pekka doesn't have it tonight

 

[Sol]

If so, big fail.

If not,

What did he accomplish

 

[SavedByRoy]

I just saw the goals Rinne let in. Wow, that was weak. No wonder he got pulled. Roenick says "That's just sad" about the first goal. Ouch

 

[Saitama]

Wow, that replay on Subban even makes it worse! I hope the refs get to see that. No more cheap calls please.

Not really. Was brutal in SCF last year. Guy doesn't have the big game gene. That's on him.

 

[GoJetsGo55]

Jets were fortunate that Rinne didn't show up and Preds were fortunate for the refs. Hopefully the better team wins the next 40.

I went into this game thinking I could cheer for the Preds if they won but that first period was one of the most pathetic things I've seen during a Jets game.

 

[Peggy]

The dive that led to a goal gave the Preds a bit more jump in their step, Jets lost their legs a bit on the bench.

terrible penalty

those 2 goals took the life out of them and the refs go and hook them up

jets had all the momentum

 

[ItchyScratchy77]

Grapes calling out Subban.

 

[ThreeOfAPerfectPair]

League needs to start suspending these serial divers like Subban. Embarrassment to the league.

 

[snowkiddin]

The irony of a referees suck chant when the refs are the reason Nashville is in the game

 

[Hank Plank]

Cherry is 100% right. That's a garbage play and very disrespectful.

 

[saffronleaf]

Don Cherry right as always Subban dove

Ah, the ever impartial Don Cherry. Never once have I seen him display any bias in favor of Canada and Canadians and all that.

Hope Subban scores a hattrick and the Jets get rocked.
