Can still celebrate taking another step towards the playoffs. No one is declaring us the champs. Nothing to suggest this team can't adapt to any team they play and they have the goaltending to back it up.
Never meant to infer otherwise KB - you`ll get no arguement from me! :thumbu:

I like to win. I like post-game win threads. I want more of that.

Chicago looked really bad against a motivated Jets team. The window has definitly shut on the Blackhawks.

Where did "farmleague" come from? I know it's O'Connor and I know he started the year in the A but it's now his board nickname? 'Splain please.

Finally some secondary scoring!

Good games form #1 line, Stats line, Roslo, Copp and Perreault with good games!

Helly once again friggin stellar!

NHL tried to set the Jets back early in this one but it backfired!

Really missed Enstrom and Schief, not!

Morrow is our #8 D man and he’s way better than guys we had in the top six for years!

What's your excuse?

Ahhh, you'll have to thank the one and only @avgard for that one.

When Laine was on the second and Connor was on the first (kinda still is now that I think about it), he would yell about how "farm boy o'connor" was taking Laine's ice away, like only he can.

The nickname stuck, needless to say :laugh:

That was actually pretty early in the year when I picked up on it. It's taken a bit for the rest of the board to catch on.

Avgaard man, Avgaard. Our very own hockey professor once penned this sentence in reply to Connor, being called up from the Moose (farm league) and immediately playing on the 1st line instead of Laine. O'Connor enjoying highlife in 1st line coming in from farmleague.

Morrow did look AWFUL at first but he has shown to be capable lately.

Nice to see Lits pot one. That line looked great tonight, so it'll be interesting to see what happens when Scheifele returns. Little works really well with Wheeler, and Connor is also a great complement. Do you put Scheif with Perreault and Roslo?
This is Wheelers team. I will bet everything that he is playing with Scheifele the moment he is back...

You know those vids where players read tweets etc out loud? I would die to see Maurice read out loud the classic 'hey coach, har someboty put a fart at you backstage?"

The professor's tryhardin is a bit too obvious as of late tho.

Player post-game: Hellebuyck, Roslovic, Connor & Trouba.

Coach Maurice post-game scrum topics: On limiting Trouba's minutes. On Trouba's adding offense to the Jets backend. Play of the Jets in the neutral zone. Response by the Jets after giving up the first goal. Thoughts on Kyle Connor. Who gets the credit for the Jets players coming back into the lineup "so healthy".

We should name every player thread in the great professors honor:

Laine: TEENAGE SUPERSTAR TRANSPORTER OF HOCKEY

Connor: Farmboy O'Connor enjoys high life in top line

Ehlers: Selfish, never pass Danish who is always making me mad, VERY,VERY MAD!

Wheeler: Old guy who is overrated and taking away 30mins of superstar icetime from transporter of hockey

Little: Guy who is on worst contract in all of playing sports off all time in universe, who Teenagesuperstar was punished to play with.
