Post-Game Talk: Jets win in OT 3-2

[jetsforever]

well seattle is about to lose so thats good

That's a good point. We are so focused on the Flames and Preds, but we are actually closer to catching Seattle for the 1st Wildcard spot then the Flames are to catching us for the 2nd Wildcard spot.

Not sure how I feel about that because the team that beat them was Edmonton who we're arguably also competing against for the WC spot if they stop winning

Too much fun? That sounds interesting. Care to share some more details?

Probably something like this: look, Jeremy has had six drinks so far, but told his GF he’s had four. If I have 2 more, it will balance out

Accountancy is a noble profession.

It's an essential profession. Accountancy is crucial to today's business world.

I'm guessing that the girl's snide aside was in reference to her guy wanting to go back and audit how goals are counted when she might have had something more fun in mind. FWIW, I've noticed some discrepancies between SOG on the scoreboard, on TV, and in the after-game summary. These are so dispersed as to not favour any team (is there an advantage anyway?) but it makes me wonder about all the other minute things that are measured in a game, like how many burps from a left-handed defenceman, and how accurate they are. But mostly, who gives a f##k about them.

Next up, I yell at kids to get off my lawn. Yeah, that large waist-deep expanse of snow over there.

Crazy thing. If the Jets go on a little streak here, they could In reality finish probably 2nd or 3rd in Central maybe 1st even.

 

[WolfHouse]

How in the f*** did jets 1.0 decide housley wasnt worth $1 million... fml.

The Jets are as close to catching the Wild, Avs and Oilers as the Flames and Preds are to the Jets, ignoring gp. It's really a shame the Jets had such a bad stretch there.

 

[blueandgoldguy]

Interesting. He is from Illinois. I wonder how the heck he became a Jets fan.

I mostly just look at it as getting in. Considering the grind of an 82 game schedule, there is little gained by getting in by a lot or getting in by a little.

 

[Gabe Kupari]

I'd rather Play Dallas instead of Vegas or LA rd 1. We play Dallas hard but in a perfect world we finish 2 minny 3 and boom Winnipeg vs Minnesota rd 1

But knowing our luck we gonna get Vegas or Colorado rd 1

 

[Jet]

I think that when we see goals start to go in we will also see some other aspects of his game get better. Probably just the opposite of what you want from a slumping player, but confidence matters.

I feel like Connor stuck with it for quite a while but it's absolutely wearing on him

Bring 'em on. We were gonna have to beat a team like that to win the cup, right? So thump a top seed in the first round and get psychology on your side

 

[Lomac]

Maybe we should convert Pionk to a forward, cause he can't defend, but can provide scoring.

It does seem that way.

Ehlers seems to be playing more directly at least.

He didn't want to play in Winnipeg...

 

[Channelcat]

It would be interesting. I'd actually like to see Stanley as a forward.

 

[macmaroon]

The Jets won, so that put a smile on my mother's face... Before the game, @Eyeseeing asked what everyone was drinking, and I said Ensure with a prune juice chaser. I guess I'll be drinking that tomorrow night as well as it seems to be lucky! It looked liked the Jets were going to lose another one, but my mother's favourite player scored (Ehlers) and she turned to me and said, "We're gonna win!" So I give this game three smiles out of five...

The Prediction Contest has now been posted, sorry for the delay. Don't forget to sign up to create a GDT...

 

[WolfHouse]

Haha the old go to excuse... possible - but i distinctly remember him asking for 1.1 million and the jets balked

Then we signed ysebart a year later

These facts have not been googled haha

 

[Mud Turtle]

Enjoying a little time away from the cold in Barbados but just checked in and saw that we won!!!
Woohoo! That’s huge. And Pionk with the winner. Who would’ve thunk?

 

[SSCBLUEJET]

I'd rather have Stanley Bryant.

 

[jiho]

I would like to see us sign Sawyer as a forward....then we would not have to listen to him on TV

Except he'll always be the player being interviewed between periods

Crazy thing. If the Jets go on a little streak here, they could In reality finish probably 2nd or 3rd in Central maybe 1st even.

Race to 100 points:

Jets would have to win 10 of 12. (101)

Dallas would have to win 7 of 13. (101)

Colorado would have to win 7 of 14.

Minnesota would have to win 7 of 13.

It would be amazing if the Jets could get back to 3rd in the Central. Almost impossible for all the teams ahead of them to shit the bed hard enough, and they basically go on a 10-12 game point streak, to believe they could get higher than that.

Race to 95 points:

Jets would have to win 7 of 12.

Nashville would have to win 10 of 15.

Calgary would have to win 10 of 13.

 

[winnipegger]

Need to try Byfuglien at forward, Pavelec with a quality start for once.

Jets 1.0 didn't have any money when they needed to sign him.They were giving all of it to Winnipeg Enterprises.
