GDT: JETS @ CANADIENS - Feb. 7, 6:30pm CT - TSN2, RDS, TSN3

[Get Bengt]

Some look at a name on a jersey and ask: ‘could that be my name some day?’
I look at it and ask: ‘how can I rearrange those letters into something stupid?’

It's the…

Examining the odious line-ups of just a few short years ago, you start to appreciate how our current

A few short years ago, our defence was holier than the Pope. Nowadays, the stronger talent and discipline of our “thin blue-line” are combining to fix this. They’re our

They’re the most important player on the ice; when they shine, we worship them; when they mess up, we want to push them off a cliff. They’re our

Let’s face it: to face the modern sports media each day (yet keep all competitive secrets), you need to be a little bit nutty, and a natural-born actor. Is the caption for each guy in this section: ‘Member of Jets

The return of Yoel Armia!

 

[GNP]

This Montreal team has surprised many this year, as they have no superstars, but they are gritty, well coached and determined. They have their toughest test in the next 4 games --playing the Jets, Nashville, Leafs, and Tampa.

If Morrissey is playing ( it's 50-50) -- I think the Jet's win this game by 1 or 2 goals, but likely one, and maybe an empty netter.

This will be a lot tighter of a game than people expect -- it should be a "great game". The Habs always come out flying.

 

[Afterburner]

Habs are my second team, so love when we play them. Always nice to see Yoel in action. But of course, there can only be one winner. Go Jets Go!

Nice touch with the "soft edges" on the photos.
Kinda sounds like something Beyek would say.

Montreal will be tough.
Now would be an excellent time for Laine to pot at least one to get the monkey off his back.
Visits to 2 Canadian markets will only add to the microscopic dissection of his play.
If the Jets could get a good hypnotist on staff I think that would be key.
Just need to make Laine think it's November again

 

[King Woodballs]

Let’s go jets!
Buffy the Canadiens slayer finally back tonight!

 

[TannedBum]

Armia's description should be " The guy we gave up for free, against cap space which we never needed. "

 

[PhilJets]

Go jets Go


Habs normally play Jets tough.

Must win.

 

[Jeti]

Must win.

The Jets always play like they're hungover in Montreal.

But the Habs are a well-coached team in the neutral zone that could give the Jets breakout some problems.

 

[Jets 31]

Buff is BACK !!!Great job on the GDT Bengt , way too much thinnin for me . Buff will set up Laine tonight on the PP and it will get Laine rolling again . Lets keep picking up wins or at least a point and keep Nashville in the rear view mirror .

Yet !! We will need it for whoever Chevy gets at the deadline .

You should only have 1 team ,the Jets , traitor .

 

[Jets 31]

Did i mention Buff WAS BACK !!! I feel like a little kid on Christmas morning .

 

[KingBogo]

Great job Bengt!

 

[Channelcat]

Amazing gdt!

 

[KingBogo]

Yet !! We will need it for whoever Chevy gets at the deadline .

We also have a potential of $4.12 M in performance bonuses. Even a slumping Laine will have likely earned most of his $2.65 M, and Connor will no doubt get his $850,000, the rest is unknown but if it is in games played it might only be Niku who doesn't get enough games in. A TD pickup might put us real close to bonus overages next season.

Ya this GMing thing is alot tougher than one would think .

Chevy would know exactly how much is left in the kitty for a TD pickup, might be just enough for a big move. Time will tell.

Cap friendly does include those bonuses in their projected cap space total. But even so, Armia/Mason would have handcuffed the Jets at the deadline.

 

[kanadalainen]

Beyak definitely yaks din bene. Tight turns <<drinks>>!

Great GDT Bengt! Very creative.

 

[kanadalainen]

Foggy early morning realization:

It'll be nice to have the big lad back.

How would you like to be that Islander player that Buff is looking at ? Not me man .

 

[Peter Tagli Eddie]

Going tonight. Just got on the plane. Go jets go!!

Cap friendly does include those bonuses in their projected cap space total. But even so, Armia/Mason would have handcuffed the Jets at the deadline.

Potential performance bonuses are not included in projected cap hit the are listed in addition to. Projected cap hit for the Jets is $73.8 M, expected salary expenditures is a couple million higher with a potential of $4.12 performance bonuses added onto that if achieved.
