GDT: Round 1 - Game 5 - Colorado Avalanche @ Winnipeg Jets - Tuesday, April 30th, 2024 - 8:30pm CDT - CBC/Sportsnet West - CJOB/Power 97

[Hobble]

Full blender out, hope if they go out they go out with a fight this year.

Wow, finally got the line-up that likely everyone would have wanted as of Game 1 (excl. Toffoli stinking his way to 4th line and no Barron)

Can’t wait for ESV to have better defensive metrics, Perfetti to set up Connor for a hat trick, and the new D to shut things down, resulting in us coming back and winning the series…

Only for Bones to revert back to CSV and scratch Perfetti to start the Semi Finals.

 

[Ludwig Fell Down]

The Jets will be penalized 752 times this game. Approximately.

Stanley has already been issued a 2-minute minor for driving with underinflated tires to the morning skate.

 

[rehf]

Much better projected lines. Too little too late I suspect though.

 

[SUX2BU]

Have the Leafs ever played an afternoon game ever?

probably not

 

[Orrrules]

No shame if they lose, this Avs team is nearly impossible to defend. Please clog the neutral zone and give yourself a chance, you can't skate with them. Oh yeah shoot the puck you dummy.

 

[jungles]

Going to the game tonight, my record for home elimination sucks. Sorry dudes/dudettes.

can we just sit a dmen and add brossoit with helle in net???

I mean, the Jets 2.0 have only ever one a single elimination game. I don't think its you.

I am 1-5 at playoff games and I will be there too.

Realistically, I know they will probably lose. Based on history. Based on how the series has gone. And yet, I am nervous and excited. Being a sports fan is annoying.

 

[Stumbledore]

What?! Haven't you seen the Boston Pizza commercial? Canadian fans are supposed to be one for all and all for one!

Yeah, and TV commercials are always an accurate reflection of real life...

 

[SensibleGuy]

Come ON Jets you're a 110 point team this season! Push this thing to game 7 at least! Take tonight. Take the next game and then all bets are off...make it exciting!

 

[Dale53130]

Yeah, and TV commercials are always an accurate reflection of real life..

Getting gut punched by the Jets and Devon Larratt both losing, has been easier to digest than sitting through CBC's commercials.

 

[Jets 31]

Somehow i knew if Bowness played all the right players and all the right lines people would still bitch . I look at it as well at least he's trying stuff and hopefully we get a big win tonight.

 

[Eyeseeing]

Win or lose all I’d like is a full out effort.
If you go out, leave with your head up.
GJG
Reward the die hard fans ( I jumped off the bandwagon game 1 ) but there are still quite a few people here who didn’t

 

[SensibleGuy]

Me one minute - "They're going to win this! The narrative changes tonight! I can feel it in my bones!


Me the next minute - "OMG this is going to be awful! We're toast! This team will fold like a cheap suit! I can feel it in my bones!"

I'm conflicted!

 

[sipowicz]

good to see Perfhetti out there!

Maybe idiots like Sip will eat crow when Perfetti scores 2 tonight!

 

[Duke749]

Maybe idiots like Sip will eat crow when Perfetti scores 2 tonight!

Really need Sip to step up tonight. Hopefully he can deliver.

 

[10Ducky10]

Only for Bones to revert back to CSV and scratch Perfetti to start the 2nd period.

Fixed that for you.

 

[bustamente]

No rhyme or reason but I really do think the Jets will be going back to Colorado after tonight, just a feeling on my part.

 

[JetsWillFly4Ever]

Lets just avoid winning game 1 then losing 4 straight for the second straight year please.

 

[The Blue Baron]

Maybe idiots like Sip will eat crow when Perfetti scores 2 tonight!

Lets see if Ehlers even dresses?

Time to empty out the gun barrel in case, well, you know why.

 

[SUX2BU]

One would do ................

 

[KingBogo]

And the coach getting called out by his players and the press.

Yeah I’m curious how much influence the players push back on lineup changes had on Bones. Looks like he finally got it right anyhow.

Hopefully not too late to salvage this series.

 

[Weezeric]

Hopefully not too late to salvage this series.

I feel like I would feel a lot better about the series if it was 2-2 right now and the Jets lost tonight to make it 3-2, than if they win tonight to make it 3-2. It’s funny how the mind works.

A naked Ehlers Might be even faster.

 

[JetsUK]

Really need Sip to step up tonight. Hopefully he can deliver.

Is he even dressed?

Guy disappears in the playoffs.





Predicting a groovy Jets win!

 

[winnipegger]

If I was a gambling man, which I am, I would bet Big on a jets win tonight. As Phil Collins said I can feel it coming in the air tonight.
