WCSF: (1) Nashville Predators vs. (2) Winnipeg Jets | Jets Lead Series 3-2

[SM17]

Some Jets fans are a salty, jealous bunch aren't they?

And so it begins

 

[Hunter368]

Flip a coin in this series, two best teams in the nhl. 50/50 chance either win, two super heavy weights throwing bombs.

Good luck Preds, may the best team win.

From this Jets fan.

I know Winnipeg played an injured team but I think they would have closed the series out in 5 even if Suter and Parise were fully healthy.

I liked what I saw from the Jets a lot more than what I saw from the Preds. It’s a toss up series but I’m going with the Jets in 7.

Will be an interesting series for sure.

Preds couldn't keep up with a high offense Pittsburgh team last year, Winnipeg could have the advantage here.

But they could also be feeling over confident after taking down a Suter-less Wild team. Lack of playoff experience vs the defending Western Conference champs doesn't bode well for them either.

Goaltending will be fun to watch this series, I have a feeling these Vezina candidates will end up with Toskala-like numbers this series.

Finally the Jets easy mode is over. This is gonna be satisfying.

Nashville had an easy mode too (made easier by the Varlamov and EJ injuries). It was just a little bumpier than expected.

Hopefully Jets can atleast split the first two.

Jets better win...they take the cup in my playoff bracket.
..no pressure fellas....

Love to see Staz hoist the cup.

 

[Bjornar Moxnes]

Honestly as much as I'd rather Preds make it through, this is actually one of those series that I don't mind either team advancing.

Gonna be a bloodbath

My favourite part of playing Nashville is getting to read their insightful, nuanced hockey views. They're clearly a fan base which has enjoyed the NHL for many decades and their hockey knowledge is second to none. I can't wait to hear their scripted "you suck" chants, and, their "let it go" sing-along (even when let it go would literally go against them).

Should be a beauty. Don't forget to wear your **** kickers and cowboy hats y'all!

What an original thought.

I just spent the last 3 hours lookin for the ball on the court and wonderin where the home runs were.

 

[Jonesey]

How are you going take this series if you already are upset with Jet fans and it hasn’t even started yet?

psssst.. he's not actually a player on the team.

 

[Hobble]

Jets win it at home in Game 6.

GO JETS GO!

This is such a garbage post. Who cares if their fan base hasn’t “enjoyed the NHL for many decades.” The majority of people commenting haven’t been alive for “many decades.”

Get off your high horse.

 

[Pyrophorus]

Lets go Preds!

 

[Hulide]

 

[Armourboy]

Dont see this going any less than 7 and frankly think whichever wins gets beat in the next round due to being beat up and injured.

Pretty much a toss up imho.

 

[Mikeshane]

Ya but at least they had to deal with MacKinnon who is a real difference maker.

 

[thejaf7]

Let the trash talk and salt begin!

 

[DashingDane]

This is going to be exciting!!

 

[thejaf7]

But who can play the banjo or grow corn better? Nashville or Winnipeg?

 

[zhok]

30k+ whiteout Jets fans in and around Bell MTS Place vs Nashville's sing a long with Dr Seuss

Nothing screams great hockey fans like being able to wear whiteout t-shirts.

 

[KingBogo]

There are a couple of major poop-disturbers in each of the fanbases that post quite regularly, so they'll have everyone up in arms pretty fast!

Agreed. 95% of posters will keep it civil, but it will all be derailed by the other 5%.

Edit: see post #59 to prove my point. I'm a Jets fan through and through and I apologize for this kind of crap.

Saltiest series of the post-season? (Outside the ones involving Toronto)

Get off your high horse.

Make me.

I have been watching pro hockey in person since October of 1964. This makes Nashville's 20th season in the NHL, so you are correct, next year will be the THIRD decade. Too bad that I can't give you a thumbs down.
