Jets fan in Wpg here. The 2 teams are so evenly matched I have to give the edge to the Blues, since your goalie has won a cup and our has yet to prove anything good in the playoffs. BUT if Hellebuyck plays like he has all season, they will win this series as the Jets are an incredibly fast team with a powerful top 2 forward lines.
Blues are not the hottest team in the NHL…Lets look back and remember who stopped the Blues winning streak, bringing them back down to earth recently. The Blues are good, but I don't think they have the depth scoring that they had in the past to get past the Jets this time, and the Jets have much improved on their defensive game to support Helle, suffocating players to the outside, eliminating passing lanes, and minimizing high danger shooting lanes.
Hellebuyck could win the Vezina?? Who is even close?
Defence wins champions but picks the blues over the best defence in the league 😂😂 lol what an idiot
Keep doubting us as the Winnipeg jets we love it 😊
In 2019 when the Blues won the cup, I thought the jets were the best team they faced until the finals. Will they repeat that incredible feat? Hell yeah. BLUES IN 6!!
Winnipeg Jets in 5. No chance Blues are winning this series.
guys Halleybuck is only good because of team defense. He is a goal line sitter and will have problems with traffic in the playoffs like all goal line sitting goalies. Hes a poor mans Lundqvist.
Winnipegs PP vs Blues PK is not a good match up for the Blues our PK is 💩
Adam Lowry grew up in St.louis for a while he always plays extremely tough against the Blues
Blues fan here. I think this is going to be a tight series and can go either way. You can never bet against Binner, but I think the deciding factor is which version of the Blues come out. And if Holloway can make his way back to the lineup and be healthy, he could be a difference maker. Either way, I'm just happy the team is back in the playoffs, it's huge for the fans, the team, and ownership that has always spent to the cap to attempt to keep a competitive team on the ice.
The Binnington vs Hellebuyck matchup in 4NF and the playoffs is awesome
I want to see pics of the players wives. The team with the most hotties will win
This will be THE best series of the playoffs!!!! Let's Go Blues
Jets on a prolonged roll I expect to continue. More sure than in the past it will continue ,at least.
One thing for sure as a Bues fan, excites to play the Jets again because of their fans. They're one of the top to have great hockey conversations with
Great series!! GO BLUES
One thing is for sure: Vegas will crush the Mild.
This is the four nations SERIES!
It was not a 12-game HOME win streak.
This should've been the West Final..
As a big Blues fan I’m of course hoping the Blues win in 4. Realistically I expect Winnipeg will prevail in 6 depending upon the very 1st game. If Blues win a tight game, say 2-1 or 3-2 it may set the tone for a Blues win in 7 as one of you fellows predicted
Blues Fan Here- The Jets are Terrifying and what they’ve done this year is nothing short of impressive.
Without Holloway Blues are going to need a lot to go their way I think..but if Binner could show up and Steal them a game or 2 early, a confident and calm Blues team is gonna be dangerous and they will be playing with house money.
The Pressure is all on the Jets here and it’s kinda been a bad year for airliners…just sayin’! LGB!!💙

Also I must add, from all of our Playoff Runs Winnepeg Fanbase have been by far the best, and it hasn’t been close!
LGB!! 🎶
Dylan Holloway is a big loss for us (Blues).
Let's Go Blues.
There are a lot of very good teams. I expect the Leafs and Capitals to likely lose their first rounds. The Jets really are not the favourite. This series will likely be about goaltending – just as the 4 Nations Tournament was.
Blues fan – I do not know how the blues are going to get near the net. Winnipeg Jets d is huge and very talented. Then they have Helly – They push most teams out towards the boards. I have hope though, you just never know.
As a Blues fan, I'm just excited to be back in playoffs, this will be an amazing series, if Jets win ill be happy for them, their fans were classy to us blues fans in 2019 so I respect them
Playoffs are different and Binnington has a good track record.
Next guy up, LGB.
President Trophies are tough burden
“He could end up winning the Vézina this year” (he’s the favourite for the hart” 😂😂
