Keefe had the brains to switch goalies for the Leafs, old dinosaur Bones didn’t here!
Bro should have at least got a game!

Agree with the comment above that 55 didn't look great yesterday. I thought it was Connor's best game, though.
As for Helle continuously analysing every goal and asking which one was his fault is missing the point. Playoff goalies make saves they shouldn't. They steal games. Helle just...doesn't. Especially when things go off the rails he just seems to fold.
Overall though to beat a team with that much talent you need to be disciplined as hell with your team play and the cracks that started showing after the ASB were never fully repaired.
The amount of odd man rushes we gave up against Colorado wasn't an anomaly. We were all complaining about it for months
Do we even need to show up at the draft? Do we have any picks left?
To be fair Schmidt while overpaid was not bad tonight.That's the problem Chevy has he has to overpay to keep/get players to come to a Canadian small market.
I wish Stastny didn't convince Schmidt to come to Winnipeg.
as long as those vets have speed. After all they brought in Toffoli and that did not help.Connor was ok but I thought this was Schief's worst game of the series. He was a -2 and -8 overall this series. He should not be on with Pionk who was -3.
The Jets were exposed. It was an easy series for the Av's.
They need to bring in a couple vets with cup experience to show them the way!
Yup. He's quickly getting the rep as a playoff choke artist. I was so pumped for this team and really thought a deep run was going to happen. How an entire team can shit the bed so completely is truly mindboggling. To get caved in night after night with no answer...... Im speechless. Nice of them to completely vindicate that anonymous player with a truly nuttless performance. FRAUDS.There were definitely more problems than just Helly but how many times over the years have we seen goalies with way less of a pedigree than Helly absolutely steal a series or 2 all by themselves? Helly didn't even steal 1 game in this series and that's the part that's so frustrating. Woll stood on his head last night for Toronto and won them a game and Helly can't ? Just not acceptable to me.
He’s a prime target for a buyout.Schmidt is not an UFA though.
This needs to happens, he's a great guy I'm sure but that contract is terrible and if you can trade Pionk the Jets could make some moves on the backlineHe’s a prime target for a buyout.
We finished the second half with 8 consecutive wins.Same as last year….. great first half. Shit the bed in the second half. Don’t show up for the playoffs.
I believe I saw somewhere that no goalie in NHL playoff history gave up more goals in 5 games than Helle did this year. A totally sobering thought for a Vezina candidate and Jennings winner.I've never seen a goalie in the playoffs scored on as many times as Hellebuyck was. 28?! Seriously
I hope Miller sticks around. He's a solid 5/6 RH shot D... but realistically why would he? Got benched for most of his time here in lieu of Logan freaking Stanley
I think that Heinola was slated to be in the line up this year and that he had a bad break (literally). He'll be a regular next season. In the past, he hasn't shown enough at the NHL level to cement his spotWhatever you think of Gawanke, now it's Heinola and Perfetti getting the same treatment. Bad prospects again?
And just as easy as it is to claim that, it is equally easy to do the opposite. The veteran is always the safe bet over the guy who never even got the shot, because you've seen one do it and not the other. The problem is that the team hasn't achieved anything since 2018, and we still don't give the opportunities out to prospects that could replace our Pionks and Stanleys.
Too many people here want to be right more than they want the team to win. Are you one of them?
(to be fair to you, at least you acknowledge the fact that it goes both ways, as opposed to those "fans" who immediately default to attributing a prospect not making it to the team to "the prospect's lack of mental fortitude" or whatever shit they come up with.)
Liar! It's cloudy AF out there today.But the sun is gonna come up tomorrow
Well, it's all over. At least the Jets tried this game, but still came up short. Congratulations to the Colorado Avalanche, they outplayed us and deserved to go to the next round. I give this game two Cartman's out of five...
I have tabulated the points from the Prediction Contest and we have a winner, @Bigfish! Congratulations! I have posted the results, so check them out!
I just want to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you for making this year very successful on HFJets. While the result on the ice wasn't what we wanted, at least we had some fun on the message board! Enjoy the summer and I will see you all at the Draft. Good night...
Yes he did have good series for the Avs, and the goal he scored on sieve Helly was a great tip!Have to admit it, Pionk was definitely one of Colorado's best players this series.
I really don't want to just pick on Helly because our defense is crap beyond Morrissey , DeMelo , Dillon and Samberg but he's one of the highest paid goalies in the league and i expect him to be better than this playoffs , much better. It seemed like every time we scored , Colorado would score right after and kill off all of our momentum.Yup. He's quickly getting the rep as a playoff choke artist. I was so pumped for this team and really thought a deep run was going to happen. How an entire team can shit the bed so completely is truly mindboggling.

This is why you should follow prospects, they haven't had the ability to disappoint you like this .
Elias Salomonsson, champion .
I don't expect much change, it's Chevy. Maybe Ehlers if he's not re-signing.
