GDT: Game 41 - Chicago Blackhawks @ Winnipeg Jets - Thursday, January 11th, 2024 - 7:00pm CST - TSN3 - CJOB/Power 97

[macmaroon]

Tonight, the 27-9-4 Winnipeg Jets take on the 12-27-2 Chicago Blackhawks at Canada Life Centre at 7:00pm CST. The Jets are coming off of a 5-0 shutout victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets and are now 9-0-1 in their last ten games, including winners of seven straight. The Blackhawks lost 2-1 to the Edmonton Oilers and are now 2-7-1 in their last ten games. The series has been split so far, with Winnipeg winning at home 3-1 at the beginning of December, while Chicago won 2-1 in overtime in the Windy City just after Christmas. The Blackhawks will be without Connor Bedard, who will be out with a broken jaw, and is not expected to return for some time. Can the Jets continue their winning ways, or will Chicago disrupt their streak? Can Goal Perfetti actually smile for once, or is he the new Jonathan Toews? Will @dcypher get their wish and see a “wave” starting at the ol' barn tonight? These questions and more got buried in all that snow we received yesterday...

Go Jets Go!

[Jets 31]

Music for tonight, time to go back to the Night Moves bar, bring the Rain tonight Jets.

 

[AlphaLackey]

Great job as always, Big Mac. Looking forward to this one for sure. Just need to go out there and play like we know how to and how we have been, and the odds of success will be very high.

 

[Jets 31]

And before anyone says i have a bad feeling about this game .....

 

[Jets 31]

On a side note just to give everyone a giggle, Hartman and the Wild are 20 points behind us in the standings now.

This keeps up any longer and we'll only be able to pick them up on sonar.

Looks like they did their driver's side window so good to go. Dumbass .

 

[Gil Fisher]

It's hard to imagine any way that we could lose this game.

Go Jets Go!

Haha! Best GDT yet Mac.
And the Dick Wolf ending.

 

[CorgisPer60]

This is the true trap game.

 

[Stumbledore]

This is the true trap game.

My worries exactly. It's got all the classic elements for a giant face plant in front of a home audience. Or is that just my prairie fatalism?

One poster here suggested that when the Jets amazing streak comes to an end - when not if - and we eventually lose a game, he fans should applaud that it lasted as long as it did.

Great GDT there @macmaroon! Even tho I don't watch the show I got a good laugh out of it.

 

[Jet]

Gooooood morning!!!!

The Jets finally getting a bit more attention nationally:

How the Winnipeg Jets have worked their way to the top of the NHL standings

The Winnipeg Jets haven't allowed more than three goals in a game since Nov. 4, are 10-0-2 in their past 12 and sit atop the NHL standings. What's behind their performance? Adam Vingan takes a look.

www.sportsnet.ca

The record all-time for games surrendering 3 or less is the Bruins at 44 games but that was the 28-29 season. I think modern day is 36 games.

There was one really stupid thing written in this article (only one!)

They talk about our defensive dominance and show a nice graphic of zone entries, slot shots and high danger chances, and then go on to say a big part of our defensive dominance is our goaltending .

Unless our goalies are stepping up at the blue line and putting sticks in lanes, that is a silly thing to say. You can be defensively dominant yet have a poor ga or in our case in seasons past, be poor defensively yet still have a good ga. Defensive play can be correlative but not necessarily causative.

However, we are .69 goals scored against below expected which is kind of huge.

At any rate, what a run. Let's keep it going tonight!

 

[Guardian17]

Thanks for the GDT @macmaroon !

The Jets are Kommisar, the Hawks are the Bellas.

 

[Jets 31]

This is the true trap game.

So was the Columbus game and the Phoenix game and the Sharks game. This is a different team than we have had before and i don't think they will just not show up for a game like in the past. We will lose again sometime but it's not going to be from a lack of effort.

 

[The Blue Baron]

Yah thanks @macmaroon

Enough feckin snow for yah?

Jets win would brighten the mood with this shite weather!

For those who live down south should pay in extra likes to current residing Winnipeggers!

GO JETS GO

 

[kanadalainen]

Nice GDT @macmaroon, thank you.

The Hawks are in a sorry state, lots of injuries, and its so easy to take the foot off the gas. I'd like to see some first period Jets goals and put them away early.

In other obvious thoughts, its time to fire up my snowblower.

Behold the Drift King 9000

- all plastic handle
- Canadian maple (simulated maple) plastic shaft
- plastic scoop reinforced with aluminum ice smashing edge
- excellent aerodynamic characteristics for flinging when operator hits the overt grief stage
- max output ~ 4 metric tonnes of snow/hour***

*** when operated by an Olympic decathalon hopeful. Please do not drink concentrated ethanol or imbibe cilantro prior to operating the Drift King 9000. Your output may vary. Output defined by cardiovascular health, mental heath and relative condition of operator. Not responsible for sundry myocardial infarctions, marginal vascular function, venous clotting, or incipient hypertensive episodes. Conditions apply. If you are a poster on HF Boards Jets, average output may drop below 0.5 metric tonnes per hour.

Its a trap game. But the Hawks are the equivalent of a rodent snare.
