GDT: WCQF G3 | Winnipeg Jets @ Colorado Avalanche | 10pm ET | TNT/Max

[Avs2022]

What happened to the Jets team that was blowing out the Avs 7-0?

Mind games by Bednar. Told them to get blown out to give the Jets a false sense of achievement.

 

[falconski]

Rantanen and Mittlstad's penalties were both super soft and Jet fans still blaming the refs.

In fairness it mostly seems like oilers fans (and I assume ref Louis fans) blaming the refs….theres like one jets fanbase doing it

 

[tbcwpg]

There were stuff not called both ways.

The difference is the Avs are an experienced playoff team, they know what you can get away with and what you can’t. Bednar also preaches playing a clean game after they’re up on penalties.

And getting outplayed generally results taking more penalties because players can’t keep up.

Oh for sure the Avs are full value for their series lead, it just feels like it's the Jets fighting a lot of different factors here. There was nothing about being outplayed that caused the Appleton trip or the Vilardi high stick or the delay of game. And if the Jets PK was anywhere near competent it wouldn't be a big issue, and even if those calls against the Avs were made, the Jets PP isn't going to do any damage.

Big yikes. Hope that’s just heavy duty stitches

Denver isn't a big market. Pat McAfee was wearing a Winnipeg jersey on his show and he can't find Denver on a map.

Solid troll effort though. Respect.

BUT THE JETS FANS HAD ALL WHITE JERSEYS AND FINALLY FILLED THEIR ARENA!

 

[LOFIN]

Hopefully that's just stitches, f***ing brutal

 

[El Travo]

Not a fan of either team but I remember 2 or 3 seasons ago when Av's fans were just was whiny about calls against them.

We grew up and started hating our team instead.

Yeah, if you go to the Avs board we could be winning a series 3-0 but down in the 4th game 1-0 and everyone would be expecting a reverse sweep.

 

[Ararana]

Imagine just taking the L and getting the f*** off the ice. You’d be suiting up on Sunday.

 

[JLo217]

Imagine just taking the L and getting the f*** off the ice. You’d be suiting up on Sunday.

Hope he’s alright. But yeah, take the L. Jets were looking for scrums on anyone they could hit

 

[Avs2022]

I've never understood scrums when you get your ass handed to you in a game. Pointless injury. It's not like the Avs are going to be rattled.

Denver is a big market! Maybe not on an American level?

But it would be the third largest market in Canada

I want to hear Craig Buttons thoughts on the series!

 

[El Travo]

I had a coworker slice his hand open with a reciprocating saw slipping. Doctor said it was the like a surgical cut and he managed to avoid everything important. He was still out of commission for a few months. Hopefully Dillon didn't hit anything important like a tendon.

 

[roccerfeller]

Avs fans, some good news if you beat us (which is looking likely - Avs have been the better team what 7 of 9 periods now? I do not honestly see that changing)

Other than 2022 when jets didn’t make the playoffs, all Stanley cup finalists from the west have gone through a Jets team

The good thing is, that with cut likes these, modern medicen can usually fix even pretty extreme stuff. This is on the light side, when you think about some other occupational injuries.

 

[Avs2022]

what i saw tonight was absolute garbage. the avalanche run interference plays all over the ice. they hit players who don't have the puck, and constantly take cheap shots. for them, the refs look the other way. the jets did not get the same consideration. this is

Shit like that happens when you start a big chaotic melee, which was what Dillon was out there to do

100%. He started going after people. Saying that. No one should get an injury like that. But had they just gone to the locker room nothing would have happened. Jets were trying to much it up the last 20 seconds.

What games you watching?

Yeah, my coworker had a slice from the base of his thumb pretty well right back to the wrist. The skin peeled back on both sides and you could see all the veins and muscles once they cleaned it up. It was gnarly. Something you'd see in a graphic first-aid book. Cleanest cut you could have asked for, and the only lasting effect from it is a wicked scar.

 

[josra33]

I'm not in Camp Blame the Refs but 1 of those was an EN and 2 were on the PP. If you don't want to blame the refs, that's fine, but 2 of the 4 scored before the EN were off of ref calls.

Trip and a double minor high stick? Seems pretty cut and dry calls no?

 

[S E P H]

Hellebuyck is playing great, not sure why all the analysts are whining about him letting 15 goals. The problem for the Jets is this hunger I have seen from the Avs is very reminiscent of their 2022 Cup run.

I really hope Dillon is okay, that looked nasty and totally incidental.

Depends what is cut, on the inside. I wouldnt expect him back in the lineup this series anyway

Avs are simply good, it is nothing against the Jets, but they seriously cannot skate with Colorado. Always behind the play and their depth defence is getting hammered.

I mean sure, but he might be able to fully recover the use of his hand and play hockey at this level. That's the important thing here.
