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

[Le Golie]

Still sour?

This series should be 3-1 and it is 3-1. Aside for the travel nightmare game, this series has been as lopsided as predicted and the Wild don't deserve a better result than the one they've got.

They are a good team and are fighting through significant absences, but they haven't been the better team in any of their losses and last night was the first loss where they looked like they were in the same league as the Jets.

You keep replying to me, I'm going to reply back. There's a way you can fix this!

Looks like we are now stuck in an infinite loop.

Well, the series should be 2-1 and game 4 should be approaching what, the 17th OT? Coulda made history. Sad.

Good has nothing to do with it, I can root for good. Cheap.

If cheap bothers you are you going to stop chearing for the Wild? Hard to find a play that's dirtier and cheaper than this one. BTW there is no 2 minute penalty for head butting. It's a mandatory 5 minute penalty and game misconduct. I wonder why Whiney the Hut didn't mention how that non call altered the game?

I didn't have to look that hard.

Cooke is no longer in the league and your boy Landeskog is just as bad as Nino, if not worse. You want to talk about organizations employing goons? Look at your history before commenting on others.

Show me a video where Landeskog head butts and opponent. I'll wait here patiently.

Not play specific. Just general walking of the line.

Game 5 predictions anyone?

Game 5 predictions anyone?

Always figured Game 5 would be a slam dunk for the Jets and I don't see a reason to change that prediction. It'd be nice to see a few of our guys step up and win some of the battles in front of Winnipeg's net, but we haven't see them do it much this series.

Curious to see who replaces Ennis and if it makes much of a difference overall. A guy like Rau might bring some energy and be less prone to turnovers. If it's Gabriel I think I'll just avoid the playoff forum for the rest of the year.

Boudreau will cry at his press conference

What’s wrong with Ennis? I always thought he was at least decent in Buffalo, but didn’t follow him closely. But he was not good last night.

Game 5 predictions anyone?

7-0 Jets. I mean Scheifele and Chiarot killed the only consistent goal scoring threat we had. Don't expect us to score. Staal, Granlund, Zucker, Koivu, Coyle, Nino. Passengers. Every single one of them.

He tries hard and he's skilled, but he's no good at leveraging those skills in any useful way. He's easy to knock off the puck and makes dumb decisions. When the Wild are already losing the possession game as badly as we have been, he's the last player that should be on the ice.

It really sucks losing Parise and Suter. I like the Jets depth but no doubt if they lost Morrissey and Wheeler they would be in tough.

And I thought Staal put up over 40 goals, no?

Parise had 8 goals the last 8 games. Staal is too slow for playoff hockey IMO. So is Koivu. This series we could use one Erik Haula. Queue triggered Wild fans.

 

[antiqueslivers]

Its going to be a close game I think. Missing Morrissey will hurt the jets a lot. However still think the jets pull it out in epic form regardless. Hopefully there aren't anymore more injuries before this series is finished.

Well the jets are without Perreault, Myers, Enstrom and Kulikov.

As PA said, he looks like an unsub on Criminal Minds.

Granlund? 3 points in 4 games and sets Dumba up for our best scoring chance in game 4.

Parise doesn't have 1 of his goals if not for Granlund, and the 2 if not for Koivu. Hard to call either of them "passengers" in this series.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Yeah, but you guys had already proven to be the better team over 82 games. Your injuries would've just brought you down to our healthy level; ours submarined us back to a great deal below.

He is pretty serious by nature. Thankfully he doesn’t resemble an overripe tomato. That would be awful. Bad look.

There was a point we were without Scheif and Trouba. We actually did not bad during that stretch.

Jets 5-2

 

[Hunter368]

Both coaches have tried playing the propaganda game in this series. PMO with Myers situation and Boudreau with the Josh non call apparently costing the Wild the entire game.

Coaches being coaches, we shouldn’t expect anything different.
