So weird moment.
I have never had not had NHL club to cheer for after a best on best competition was over since 1987, even then I was no longer living in the city. This feels so strange to be back cheering for my real team?

Ya. Matt Tkachuck was not ready to play and totally useless, and kreider was ok, but KFC was exactly what they needed in OT. Thankfully for Canada, he didn't play

That was such a fun movie. I was living in Lethbridge at the time and caught that one on a date night.

Winnipeg Jets KFC that gets some time and space is what they needed but not team USA Kyle in a game with zero time and space available. Kyle wouldn’t have seen the ice in OT on the 4th line and that is where he would have been for good reason. Yes of course he has slick hands but we didn’t see any of that during the 3 games he played because he had no room. Lots of great goal scorers on both teams but no room to breath. Goals were being generated by forecheck, turnovers, net front banging and crashing or in OT by a defensive breakdown for once in this game. I love KFC but he was not suited to that format where they weren’t calling penalties and the games were way more physical and intense.
The best thing that can come of it is that he uses the adversity as fuel for the upcoming playoffs.

They could have gotten a ride back with those Winnipeg boys who drove to Boston for the game, he needed to clarify.
You may be right but i don't think he was given enough of a chance to prove you right or wrong. Ultimately i'm glad though because he is now back with the Winnipeg Jets uninjured and maybe a little pissed .

Well at least TSN online figured out the Jets are playing the Blues tonight. took them about 8 hours to correct it.

Yes. Heard and agree with you.
Another way to channel the adversity is in a glass half full tack. If I am KFC, my thinking might be that hey that I wasn't part of the loss. Feck the US coaching staff, they could have had me pummel a few.
KFC can take some positive energy from that reality.

Scratched for six minutes of Kreider... thats got to be motivation
Zito is going to be pissed if tkachuk is out...
The one bright spot is we have seen Kyle perform in the playoffs before - I think his play in 4 Nations was more a result of being on Team USA, and probably wanting to do too much. I do think that where Kyle differs from say an Ehlers is that he uses his skill well within a system. He is a pretty disciplined player.
I have high hopes for him in the post season
To be fair, even McDavid didn’t have any room in the final game until he did in OT and scored.
I just think the US coaching staff didn’t like his lack of size and physicality.

Harken the Blues-loathing, it possesseth all Jets’ eyes
And all their soul and all their every part;
Even is the result from these Jetted guys,
And so it shines inward, from and at my heart.
Methinks no face so gracious is as false hope,
But thine power play is cracking, the truth of this account;
And Yo- an addition like Cap Lowsy be super dope,
As they all other in all worths give model and surmount.
But when thine mirror shows our D indeed,
Riding high and painted with tann'd antiquity,
Mine own love for these dudes matched what I read;
Jets, please go hard so the love refreshes its bounty.
'Tis thee, Jets, with KFC’s own grease you must glaze,
Strip bare the Blues, resume your winning ways these days.

That is the thing, in such a short tournament coaches need to make really quick decisions. Can't always give player the leeway to grow into it.
But I think KC will be much better for it come playoff time.

Vladdy is signed for a 2 year extension according to Freidman.

A first line winger named KFC
Said “Scoring is very much part of me”.
A Viking is fine,
And Lord Lardlet, divine
But a healthy GF% doth bring the glee.

Expect the worst, you’ll never be disappointed.
That man looks perpetually constipated.
Good to have Jets hockey back. With all this meat talk, not a fan of St.Louis style ribs.
