GDT: Your Winnipeg Jets vs Minnesota Wilds | Mon, 6 Apr, 7PM

[cheswick]

Funny enough we are not quite there yet. If we lose tonight, because we play Calgary in our last game, we still can control our own destiny in the last 3 games of the season. A loss today AND tomorrow does put things out of our control.

Potentially. If we lose today and tomorrow and Calgary loses to Arizona, it would still be in our control.

Looks like O'Dell was not sent to St Johns after all

@WiebeSunSports: Matt Halischuk and Eric O'Dell are filing in for Andrew Ladd and Bryan Little this morning #NHLJets

Why would he be? There's no roster limit and limited recalls. Anyone who is up after the trade deadline is unlikely to be sent down.

 

[PerryPooley]

I wish we could fast forward to the hopefully not too distant future when one of our young goalies is ready to join the team. Not being able to trust our current goaltending sucks.

Ed Tait tweeted it earlier. He's deleted it now. 1290 am also reported it on the radio but maybe they were just using Tait's tweet

@WiebeSunSports: Ondrej Pavelec will start in goal for #NHLJets tonight vs #mnwild who counter with Devan Dubnyk

ruh roh.

 

[CorgisPer60]

Well, I hope the Pavelec of 6 games ago shows up, instead of the one from last game. QUIT LOSING YOUR ****ING NET, YOU ****.

in before Jets give up a breakaway and Pavs breaks his mask doing a faceplant

 

[BigZ65]

Can we hire Jacques Lemaire for this week? Keep the puck in the neutral zone, we might win.

@WiebeSunSports: Toby Enstrom comes out for a twirl near the end of #NHLJets morning skate

So is the little one playing?

Pavs in goal tonight is the right call, sooner or later he's due for a big game!

Top two line's need to do something tonight!

Meyers needs to be like the player we saw in his first 10 games as a Jet!

 

[White Out 403*]

Im ok with Pavs tonight and Hutch tomorrow.

 

[Guardian17]

Pavelec has got to control his rebounds or it will be a long night for us.

Next week we'll either be discussing our playoff match up or cleaning out our lockers.


Go! Go!

Im ok with Pavs tonight and Hutch tomorrow.

I wish it had been the other way around. Hutch has played really well against the Wild, and poorly against the Blues. I suspect Pavelec will get both starts.

To be honest, with Comrie being called up to St.John's, I admit to secretly hoping that Hellebuyck starts the last 3 games

 

[Jetabre]

Win this game.

I agree with everything in this post.

Good catch. Fixed.

 

[AlphaLackey]

Go Jets go. Nothing but "A" games. I can handle a loss with my head held high if you just play like you mean it.

Such tension in the air...



A blood-red sun hangs in a lifeless sky.
It has begun; those in the way will die.
Does no one see?
Does no one know?
This is the calm before the storm.

Soon the clouds will choke the light,
change the day into an endless night,
and the wind will drive the rain;
there'll be no shelter,
no escape

Coach Maurice pre-game chat: Expectations on Ben Chiarot. Any extra words for Chiarot? How is Enstrom? Ladd/Little just maintenance? Starting road trip against a team they are familiar with. Impact of Dubnyk for the Wild. On the importance of the win over Vancouver and how much the team needed it moving forward. How far has his defensive structure come? Encouraged by how far it has come? When you can see the finish line does it change the pressure of the week?

What an exciting time of year. Feels good to legitimately be in a playoff race.

Super-pumped for tonight.

GO JETS GO
