WCQF: (2) Winnipeg Jets vs. (3) Minnesota Wild | Winnipeg Leads Series 3-1

[Lempo]

Man what am I paying you for though? Really though? This late. We got a match up already and teams are all clinched thought it'd open up a bit earlier. but thanks man.

You're paying? I'm paying! And we got the like graphics timely delivered to the Canes board by Sniperhoff just fine, sometimes even without unneeded snide commentary, and expect no enworsement in the service despite these "playoffs" distractions.

 

[Aavco Cup]

 

[TaLoN]

Jets in 7

 

[Willchel Marlynder]

Jets in 6

 

[Zombotron]

Jets in 5. Dubnyk steals Game 3 or Game 4 but it's too little too late as Winnipeg takes its first series win since 1987, and on home ice

 

[HanSolo]

Can't see Minny winning this.

 

[White Out 902]

How I feel right now

 

[BrokerD]

Jets will dominate the entire series but be swept by Wild in 4.

Why I oughta...

 

[Jets 31]

haha funny, but you know whats even better, is when Laine wants 10 plus million, and the low budget jets cant afford him lmao! enjoy your little run of playoffs, Wild in 4!

See this is part of the reason people hate the Leafs , we have the richest man in all of Canada as our owner but yeah we are a budget team . Just because our GM is pretty good at signing our guys to good contracts doesn't mean we are a budget team .

 

[PG Canuck]

Go Jets Go

 

[Howie Hodge]

Jets show up for game #1 in classic uniforms, to a white out crowd and either:

-Win the series and eventually The Cup

or

-Fizzle out in 4 straight....

Jets in 6.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Jets in 6. They are rolling this year.

 

[Jets 31]

The Jets will go as far as Helly takes them . I think the Jets win in 5 but every game will be close just because we all need the added stress .

 

[Sol]

Jets are an unproven playoff team. Minnesota has tons of experience even though their experiences haven’t been very good. I can see one of Nashville or Winnipeg losing in round 1 because in the NHL playoffs all the favourites never win. Wild in 6.

St. Louis' experience got them no where.

 

[Jetcetera]

Suter has arguably been the best player on the Wild this season. I just don't see them winning without him.

 

[Ivan13]

I'm hoping for a sweep, and I don't see a way this goes beyond 5, barring a calamity at Jets' expense.

 

[Jetcetera]

St. Louis' experience got them no where.

I hate when people talk about playoff experience as being such a huge factor... I'm sure it helps a little but it sure hasn't for San Jose and St. Louis and New York and Washington and Anaheim. When LA won in 2012 they sure didn't have a whole lot of playoff experience.

 

[Patrik Barkov]

As as much as I despise the Jets, I think they should win this one. 4-2.

I believe the Jets will win this. 4-1. Unfortunately.

Next up: Hate the Jets, should sweep Minny though.

 

[kyle o connor]

Wild bottom 6 looks hideous and their defensive roster has no room for error injury wise. Will it get in their head while playing that they absolutely can't get injured or an AHL hump is his replacement?

Time for Buff to turn Granlund into Rey Mysterio backfliping off the top rope again.

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

Jets in six games.

 

[777]

Playoff forum is back, good times on HF!

Jets are huuuge favorites here

 

[Chuck Norris Trophy]

If Helleybuck doesn't go MIA Jets should take this in 5. They are looking great.

 

[Canuck16]

Jets got this in 4 or 5 games and there will be blowouts. If Suter was around, I think the Wild still lose but the games would be much tighter.

 

[Cellee]

Every playoff series he had coached until this one vs. Winnipeg, he always had home-ice advantage.

Home ice advantage and not being an underdog are not really the same thing.

Home ice advantage and not being an underdog are not really the same thing.

Put it this way- how many of Boudreau’s prior playoff series was his team (WSH/ANA/MIN) was his team expected to lose? More often than not, his teams have been upsets as favorites against supposedly lesser teams.

Outside of Minnesota, seems like few if any are picking the Wild to upset the Peg
