Line ups to get @Jets 31 & Plain Jane on the Main Board GDT tomorrow morning. @Jets 31 has requested funny gifs for the lineups and it’s his Thread so I’m improvising.

 

[Jets 31]

Oh and if Montreal thinks they are winning this series they got another thing coming.

 

[Afterburner]

Hell yeah!!! GJG!!!

 

[10Ducky10]

I am looking more forward to this game than any other since we played game 7 against NSH.
Getting to Price early, staying out of the sin bin and hitting the Habs often will be key. Looking for Lowry to have a big game.

 

[DRC]

This is the real test GJG

 

[SM]

LFG

 

[Ggg99]

Goalies a push. The better team will win.

That would be the Jets.

Now win boys! GOJetsGO!

Should be a physical series. Both teams like to throw the body. Habs actually led NHL in hits per game during the regular season. Not light-weight like Hab's of old. (Think Jets were 11th or 12th, though basically about equal in #)

Should be a good one. Enjoy, Jets fans!

The only advantage Price has over Helle is more playoff games but hasn't gone as far in them as Helle has.

I don't get what you mean by the bolded parts?

 

[DCHabitant]

I don't get what you mean by the bolded parts?

Habs had the most hits per game during the regular season at 28.3. As for the 2nd part, I was mistaken--I thought the difference between #1 and #12 was less than 2 hits/game, so I said basically equal in #. Looked at the stats again to confirm. Was wrong. Jets number is actually 23.2 hits per game average.

 

[King Woodballs]

Round 2 is finally here!

 

[FlappyGiraffe]

Super excited for this one. Hopefully nobody gets down on the team if we drop this one, remember what happened in the Vegas series where one team was off a game 7 and one team was rested.

 

[leer2006]

Here we go! Here’s hoping the Jet’s come out flying!

They’ve each made it to the third round.

 

[SUX2BU]

Thanks Jets

forecheck aggressively
Sticks in passing lanes
Help Hellebuyck
Hit anything wearing red and white
Punch Perry in the face

 

[kanadalainen]

Thanks for the Jane @Jets 31 (be she ever so humble, there is no Jane like Plain).

Special thanks to the crossover skills (appearing on an HF Board near you) and the plethora of gifs from Father of Redness (and other hues in that part of the visible EM spectrum) @Ginger Papa. Mirth, thy name is Papa.

I expect a tough series, and for the Habs to come out flying. Their kids are playing well... but the Jets have answers for them. We have a kid, a very huge kid, who slings a mighty puck, and loves his fellow trees.

Hercule, Pierre-Luc, Hell Boy, Kap, Shuffles, KFC, Lurch, Apples and Copper, I summon the MIGHTY COELACANTH to be feeling it within thee.

Cast thy jelly-filled orbs to the east, to les Habitants, and allow your neural circuitry to engage and thus auto-prepare for battle with the genetic know-how of 70 million years of survival - to reset, recalibrate, and adjust for the consumption of a slightly different foe. Allow the very clean waters of Bell MTS centre to wash through your gills oxygenating tissues and muscles needed for savage hits and strikes against the hereditary enemy. The mission: to nullify and negate any Perry, Caufield, Suzuki, Gallagher, Toffoli-like creatures, elimination is not required, just a thorough stunning. Mental warfare is approved, you must release the coelacanths of war and cry havoc! Emerge from this skirmish, this virtual pool and testing ground of evolution, dripping, and allow the milky light of the Winnipeg solar orb to wash over your perfect lobes providing impetus to the all-important vulcanized disc of rubber that shall be smashed past the oppositions' final defence.

GJG!!

Dear Winnipeg,

Please dispose of the Montreal Canadiens with all possible haste. We are all behind you and support you to the fullest in this endeavor.

Please do not let us down.

Always very respectfully,

~Every Boston Bruins fan on earth.

The Jet’s offence is dank,
Helly’s saves are from heaven;
Our skates hath the primal eldest blessings upon’t,
Wreaking incoming Hab’s murder.
Pray for a heavy shot,
Stan’s inclination be as sharp as will:
Kap’s resilient stones* usurps the Habs defence;
And, like a man to double business bound,
I beseech my LCD screen where I shall first begin,
And do not neglect.
What if Price’s cursed hand
Were thicker than itself with Leaflet’s blood?
Is there not rain enough in the sweet prairies
To wash, and render it null?
Behold the spoiler: Aye, there is.
Whereto serves Jet’s fourth line
But to be feeling it, and thus confront the visage of offence?
And what’s in prayer but this two-fold Plain Jane force,
To be forestalled ere we come to fall,
Or pardon’d being down?
Aye I’ll look up to see our maligned D
Who is at no fault these 4 games past.
But, O, what form of prayer
Can serve Mo’s fancy speeches?
‘Forgive us this incoming murder’ of thy gassed Habs?
That may well be; since Shuffles is still possess’d
And KFC scorsi effects are a real thing,
Thy dispensed foe of Oil can attest.
May Pionk, Tree, DeMelo be pardon’d for their awesomeness?
Nay.
In the corrupted currents of thy Sportsnetted world
Thy spin doctor’s gilded hand may be shoved aside by justice,
And oft ’tis seen the wicked hoped-for prize itself
Buys out the law: but ’tis not so above;
There is no shuffling, there the action lies
We ourselves shall see a clean series of underdogs compell’d,
Even to the teeth and forehead of our faults,
To give in evidence.
To business now.
Straighten, stubborn knees; and, Jet’s hearts
Beat with valves tethered with strings of steel,
Let les Habs be soft as sprigs of new-sprung prairie flora,
And Jets, feed them a breakfast of tender anthracite
And all may be well.

Nice to get the Jets back up and running. Hopefully the team isn't too rusty after that layoff.
