GDT: Game 12 - Winnipeg Jets @ St. Louis Blues - Tuesday, November 7th, 2023 - 7:00pm CDT - TSN3 - CJOB/Power 97 - Time to Stop Monkeying Around

[GeorgeJETson]

I realize the game isn't until tomorrow, but I have doubts I'll be able to post it then, so decided to start it a little early.
---

Today the Winnipeg Jets will face their divisional rivals St. Louis Blues in the fine state of Missouri. The Jets are coming off an impressive 5-3 win over the Arizona Coyotes, but it wasn't exactly a clean win. They could have played better in the first two periods.

Time for them to stop monkeying around and trying to be cute

We need to get a clean victory here so all of us can celebrate in true monkey style

Okay, enough monkey jokes. Now, let's talk about the line-up....

WE INTERRUPT THIS GDT WITH AN IMPORTANT NEWS BULLETIN

A pair of monkeys have just escaped from the St, Louis zoo. One of the zoo workers accidently left their cage door open, and the pair have wandered off.

One of the zoo workers, Gibbon McBanana, has stated that the two primates are huge hockey fans. Apparently they saw a preview of the hockey game and realized the Winnipeg Jets will be in town. Gibbon states that they both applied to work at Sportsnet in Canada, but were not hired due to being too intelligent.

Uh oh. Hopefully those monkeys don't get on the wrong side of the law and are forced to go on trial.

True. I guess they have nothing to fear.

Now, a victory would certainly improve the mood around here. I'd personally flip out with a satisfying win

I think we'd all dance a jig with a big win, wouldn't we?

And if anyone drops the gloves tonight, how should we react?

Uh, okay, thanks Homer, I guess.

Anything to add, Mark Chimpman?

---

Winnipeg Jets: 5-4-2, 12 Points, 3rd in Central
St. Louis Blues: 5-4-1, 11 Points, 4th in Central

That's all, folks. Now to treat myself with a nice banana.

Thanks @GeorgeJETson great GDT . Big Central division game tonight so take no prisoners and battle hard tonight.

 

[Jets 31]

Music for tonight, have Green Day on the brain since they are playing half time at the Grey Cup this year that we know our Bombers will be playing in and since we Jets fans are in the minority this song is perfect. Go Jets Go and Go Bombers Go.

 

[DRW204]

Blues looked like crap against us a couple weeks ago but are somehow keeping pace with us. Feel like this may be a get right game for the top line with a few goals.

 

[macmaroon]

Thanks @GeorgeJETson for the chimptastic GDT! Now let's go bananas and beat the B-lose tonight...

Go Jets Go!

 

[WolfHouse]

Binnington is all over the place this season- and every season really... jets need to show up ready to play so he doesn't get in a groove

 

[Jet]

Time to go on a bit of a roll.

Time to make some hay to buffer for the eventual rash of injuries this team is sure to have

 

[Guardian17]

Fantastic GDT @GeorgeJETson !

Jets need to push the pace tonight and get 2 points.

 

[Aggie204]

Game plan: Get in Binningtons crease all night until he goes apeshit. Then profit!

 

[Hobble]

Must win!

"Shave Off!", by Dr. John Cooper Clarke:

What would it take to shift ya?
A blood-stained banana?
A Panama titfer?(1)
A piece of an eyelid attached to a britva?(2)

I'm not a fan of enforced euthanasia,
But somebody taser the chimp with the razor.

You'll never outrun a guy with a gun.
You'll never outlive a man with a shiv.
A girl with a rife is never a trifle.
Don't clock the wife of a man with a knife;
Don't pull a blade, he may have a grenade.
Try not to sneer at a girl with a spear.
To be hit with a club'll be nothing but trouble.

Call THAT trouble? I don't wanna phase ya,
But somebody taser the chimp with the razor.

You better not bitch-slap a chap with a switch.
It will not wash.
Carry a cosh.(3)
Even then he may have a Sten gun(4)

You don't wanna hammer a man with a camera;
You would be liable -- it's undeniable.
Try not to flannel(4) a man on a camel.
Who needs a scimitar 'round their perimiter?

Don't give a snake an even break.
If you see an adder, get up a ladder.

Most things in existence are prone to resistance,
But sometimes not, like this one for instance:
A chimpanzee is not just for Christmas.
That center parting looks quite the business!

Drape that ape in your old school blazer,
Then somebody taser the chimp with the razor.

(1 - Cockney rhyming slang for hat (i.e. 'titfer' -> 'tit for tat', rhymes with 'hat').
2 - Slavic term for a razor, as popularized in A Clockwork Orange.
3 - A club, or truncheon.
4 - To shamelessly flatter.)

In 2001, Spanish musical prodigy Melodía Gutiérrez released her first single at the age of 10 entitled "El Baile De Gorilla" ("The Gorilla Dance"), in what could best be described as Spain's answer to "Baby Shark", complete with simple lyrics and dance moves ("hands go up / hands go down / we walk together like gorillas"). Yet somehow, I shit you not, it spent nine weeks in the top 5 of Spain's music charts and 13 weeks in the top 20 that summer >.<

In this 2016 clip from the TV show Menuda Noche ("What A Night!"), she performs the song live fifteen years later synced with one of her first concert recordings of the song, alluding to the songs enduring popularity in its home country.

And I swear, if I were not looking at a room full of grown-ass adults dancing along, I would have thought this was just one giant Wikipedia hoax.

 

[Zhamnov5GoalGame]

Please win.
Please score more goals than the other team.
Please look competent in doing so.
Please wake our first line's scoring up.
Please keep our 3rd line dominant.
Please transform one of our D into a #2 (Morrissey could use some help carrying the position).

I'm asking a lot but I did say please.

Guess i should get into this monkey business.

When I have seen Bin's greased gear defaced
And Vrana’s outworn and time-crusted age;
When hoary Blues Ivory towers I see down-razed
And their broken buttocks gives rise to Berube’s rage;
When I have seen our hungry fanbase gain
Advantage on the kingdom of “goals for”,
And the firm soil win of the frozen water main,
Continued scores quelling loss and goals well stored;
When I have seen such interchange of state,
Or Schenn himself confounded to decay;
Ruin hath taught me thus to ruminate,
That Jets hath begun to grasp playoff binding play.
This thought is as a drawn breath, sweet, bemused
Wield Helly for this fight, which we must not lose.
