Edmonton changed goalies and won 2 straight games. Hellebuyck is no better than Skinner in net and if the coach can not see this or gm it's time they were replaced … Everyone is laughing at us now because they see it and our team has no clue he is soft in goal now.
Yes, give me those seed oils. Love me some KFC. Delicious poison.
All jack ass had to do on the high tip was cover that side of the net. Instead he stands there thinking no matter his reaction will make the save. On the hoal stick mishap he should have pounced on puck… Sorry reading press clippings mean shit now and he aint producing
Power Play does not move around now and has no goals.
PK is wrong people with slow response to bobbles
55 was the guilty party on first goal turning into wall with puck when schenn was down the wall
Make no mistake jordon biddington hands down is a better goalie
Thanks for detailed break down.
I know not everyone likes to thinks of sports in terms of probability theory, but if you look at the current series odds, the Jets have a 63% of winning the series. Would you agree with these odds? Or do you think its much closer to 50/50 at this point? A lot of times the money shuffled in preflop before the series started with these series bets, so it does not always adjust for what people who have watched these games are seeing. My theory is that winnepeg really needs to win this next game or they might be cooked. It feels like a must win.
Shit luck is like where there is smoke there is fire. Said another way Hellebuyck ego is his downfall he thinks he is so good the puck will just hit him… NO YOU HAVE TO WORK EXTRA HARD TO MAKE EVERY SAVE
I PREDICTED JETS WILL BE OUT IN 5. I WAS WRONG, IT WILL BE 6. JETS ARE A JOKE. NO ONE EXPECTS THEM TO WIN. LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE, MAYBE THE JETS WILL GO TO 7 GAMES NEXT YEAR IN THE FIRST ROUND. AS I SAID BEFORE, JETS WILL BE MAKING TEE TIMES BEFORE THE SNOW MELTS IN WINNIPEG. NO ONE REALLY VISUALIZES SCOTT ARNIEL LIFTING THE CUP, EVER!
CONNER… YOU'RE A DREAMER. WINNIPEG SUCKS
I've always said Helly is a great reg season GTer, but has never played elite and carried the Jets in the playoffs. Rinse and repeat again with him. Jets fan should never use the term "great" with Helly until he actually wins something.
Helly has not proved himself as a gamer. The lights get bright they dry up. Binner had proven himself again and again he steps up when it matters and is needed. Binner steals away goals many times this series helly just has not.
I’m a Blues fan that stumbled across this video. For Blues fans it’s been 4 good games, the first two games could have been won by either team. Winnipeg had a terrible 3rd game and seemed to come out strong for game 4. It would be hard for either team to feel like they have this series locked up and I look forward to an exciting final 3 games. Good job on your content and LGB
Right from Namestnikov first stupid penalty to all the goal analysis, Blues players are not getting put on their ass with opportunities right there!
Blues have been tied with, or held the lead over, the Jets for 211 of the 240 minutes of hockey played thus far.
Winnington has won a cup knows what it takes and can do it Jets goalie has not won anything yet
As a Blues fan i still think that, this isn't on Helly .
The team in front of him did a shit job of clearing out the front of the net ( themselves included ) & got away from, driving the net themselves .
Until they correct that stuff…..Helly is going to be the scapegoat for another Jets failure & wrongfully so .
Big game Binnington > Playoff Hellebuyck
Blues have grit from overcoming a horrible first half and coach change. They had to get better ti get where they are. Winnipeg is a better overall team but they didn’t have to overcome adversity this season. Not saying they don’t deserve to be where they are, they just seem like they got too comfortable being top dog.
Top corners on Hellypenny all day.
Spine, some push back, this is a real gut check moment. Jets need to stomp on the throat of those ghosts from the past and push through this. Time to channel their inner Sith and let the anger flow. This team needs to dig in and push like the Oilers did last night.
As a Blues fan I appreciate you guys and your objective views on the series. We dont think the Jets are out of gas, and it's a tied series! The first team to lose on home ice will be very telling in this series, so on to game 5! LGB
It’s a long and winding road teams embark on in the postseason. If a loss is discouraging..disillusionment you can have all summer long..but engage the battle a game at a time..come out and win..you are that much closer to the summit. It’s a 16 game tilt to the end. Keep it going, guys!
It's a tough series…. the last 2 games the Jets stunk it up but I'm not giving up on them, GO JETS GO !!! It'll be entertaining … Jets in 7 !
Thanks for the show guys. I have to believe that we will win game 5. I think the schedule is advantageous to us in that we have the extra day to figure things out and hoping Gabe can also return. Go Jets go, I still believe but those losses sure sucked.
Helle is 32!! He is what he is. Not a big game player.
Unfortunately I think the jets are not a playoff team and never have been.
Had 3 years to figure out why teams beat them. Teams game plan for them and the jets have 0 response! 0 production from 2nd and 3rd line. Terrible special teams. A tender who is unable to adjust and elevate his game. A 3rd pairing (whoever they put out) that can’t keep up. If they choke this series away they can’t come back with the same nucleus again. Been given so many chances year after painful year!!
Blues fan. I think too much of the blame is falling on Helle. Of those goals, the first was a high deflection, the second was a terrible screen by the jets defender, the third had two Blues standing untouched in the crease, the 4th bounced off the deferers ass.
While Helle hasn't been great, the defence in front of him has been the real problem. I know the goalie not making the save is the sexier story, but I think the Jets are getting out coached. The Blues adjusted after the loss the Jets did not.
PS Jets fans are great. If the Blues lose, Ill have no animosity and hope the Jets beat the Avs.
playoffs is another level and gear. your either built for it or have the nard's to fabricate it on the fly. the latter is much harder but can make you a legend.
Horse collar tackling a guy that is engaged with someone else is a penalty every time. Plus it's a rat shit move to sucker a guy from behind. Lowery has lost his mind taking awful penalties. That's not good for a captain.
I said last year this team ain’t built for the playoffs we got at least 10 potatoes out there helleybuck Nino iafallo Appleton nemenskov Barron Gustafson schenn pionk Demello can’t win with potatoes
Boy, Jets have to be concerned. They got their butts kicked in both games in St Louis. Arniel was not able to counteract the Blues rush after the first game there. That's a clear problem with coaching. And their 2 home games were both close, where the Blues could have taken at least one. Given the large difference in goals scored, the Blues are now the favourites. The next Jets next home game is a must win. If they lose that one, they will get murdered when they go back to St. Louis and are out golfing. And they have to lead by 3 goals early to take the wind out of the Blues. Pull out all the stops Jets- this is it!
Blues fan here…As an NHL nut and fantasy hockey guy as well, I wish Ehlers and Holloway were both fully healthy for this series for both teams. Two players that would be helping both teams tremendously. This is not all on Helly in my opinion the past two games. He cannot stop what he cannot see. The Jets forwards need to backcheck more right? The problem with that though is the Blues D are just peppering from the point like crazy so what does Arniel focus on to stop the Blues from doing?
The Blues youth are just insane skill wise moving forward–at forward. 7 guys in system or on team now all under 25 you should have nightmares about the next five years. Snuggy literally just left his dorm at Univ of Minn for this series lol and Bolduc are both on #1 power play. Sick.
But–THIS year is the Jets time–not the Blues. If the team I bleed Blue for loses this series I will be 100% rooting for the Jets to come out of the west. Love your fans—and have always had massive respect for guys like Kyle Connor who to me is by far the most under rated player in the NHL. Let's have this one go 7 and enjoy every moment. Cheers to my friends in Canada!!
Stanleys got to use his size keep them wondering if hes about to lay on some hurt
The first 2 games were close though. Blues could have won one of those games. The blues decimated the jets both home games.
Playoffs is a goalie showdown later in the round of the series can’t expect defense to save your butt the whole time
Binnington is considered a elite goalie when it comes or playoffs not gonna say he was the best in regular season but he shouldn’t be undertestmated by any team
If you come in and start being explosive like the bruin in game 7 you will see another form you haven’t seen since 2019 that be a true test
