Jets have been fantastic this year.
​
This does not bode well for us.
Even if we don’t win it would be funny to push them over 3 goals to end their streak
*chuckles*
We’re in danger
Maybe the cool Manitoba air will give us a new life?
If Hellebyuck is starting, ill be shocked if we score 1
We have always played really well against Winnipeg. Even to the point in the hockey thread a couple days ago a Jets fan said “it wouldn’t shock me if Columbus was the one to break the streak”
Not necessarily the record, but like the Rangers we play them hard.
Winnipeg fanbase is actually one of the few that does not trash us constantly
Tarry in the net again, Elvis scratched
Missed pregame for the last one, What is the status of Dmitri currently?
I don’t think we’ll have to worry about giving up a third period lead on this one…
Just stoked for garment hockey.
I am officially starting to believe that Elvis may be traded… 11 days since he played. Another healthy scratch… Something isn’t right.
On one hand I’m excited to watch the Jets, they’re probably the best team in the league currently and I’ve barely seen them.
On the other hand, I’m more likely than not gonna see an asswhooping against CBJ.
If anybody’s looking for something to do with that extra hour we have before game time tonight, check out Kirill Marchenko’s interview on What Chaos from this afternoon. Nice to see a more mainstream hockey media give him some love and attention.
Watch us somehow win this one on the road against one of the hottest teams. It wouldnt suprise me
Battle of two teams who PLD quit on and are better off for it.
Pretty ironic how mired in controversy the Jets offseason was in who might leave and stay and here they are tops of the league somehow.
Connor oh-hell-we-are-fucked
since when are the jets good
Crap!!
C’mon
Ah, a terrible defensive play and an even softer goal. Lovely
Fuck Boqvist. Get him off the team, consistently bad
Man what a great start
Spend the first like 2 minutes stuck in your own zone, get one offensive zone push, immediately give up a goal.
Inb4: “I stayed up to watch THIS?!”
I remember all these rumors about the Jets locker room being really toxic. Is that problem squashed? Seems so looking at their record
Gotta love when the D lead the rush only for it to immediately turn into an odd man rushes the other way.
At this point, I enjoy losing now just to hear Vincent’s lame press conferences. Just as bad as Larsen.
I wonder, is Winnipeg the least likely place to see a Jackets jersey in the crowd? Anyone been a roadie there?
Watching the Jets stream, their commercials are so much better than ours.
I get sick of seeing injury attorneys, prescription drugs and political ads. Fuck our media system.
I thought that was in..
Damn. ≤2 GA in 22 of the last 23. Fucking ridiculous
Pingy boi 🙁
Watch how the Jets roll four solid lines. They check HARD and are very aggressive on defense
The Jets headcoach looks like the detective from V for Vendetta
I’ll be honest: if the Jets are the Canadian team that finally gets them a Stanley Cup after 35 years I will both love it and find it absolutely hilarious. I’m on the bandwagon.
The boyz look pretty good today honestly
I’m imagining a small kid trying to run at a bully, while the bully is sticking out his hand in front of the kids forehead
When does Elvis get traded?
I might be overreacting but is it possible Elvis is scratched because we’re looking to trade him?
Who’s coaching our D? They always take the worst shots when the forwards are buzzing…
Well shit… that looked like a hockey period! Let’s keep it up.
Phantom goal by them is the difference, we had plenty of good chances. That was a solid period of hockey.
And Laine and Elvis were nowhere in sight.
