Knights. I believe but... The script says Knights win. It leaked.

 

[ItchyScratchy77]

Knights are steamrolling their way to a Stanley Cup. ainec.

I believe if the Knights get past the Jets-- they win the Cup. They are getting out of this world Goaltending, and play like a well oiled machine. Very little mistakes as well.

The Jet's are "not" done yet, but the odds have to be with Vegas now, but it's happened many times that teams blow a lead like this. I'm sticking with the Jet's--"all the way"

No, it hasn't happened many times.

Jets in a blow out.......................extremely optimistic think game 1 with no let down, think 3rd period tonight without the Knights scoring................................well at least I hope so not ready for the season to be over.

 

[Coach]

Voting Jets. Going with the heart over the Brain. Hellebuyck can play better and Jets can get some more luck around the net.
How do you eat an elephant ? One bite at a time.
How do we beat Vegas. One shift at a time. Why give up now nothing to lose everything if we win.

 

[GNP]

No, it hasn't happened many times.

Well you are right blowing a 3-1 lead in a series is not that common--that's why I said the odds are with Vegas--and "no doubt" they are.

It does happen though -- and I think the Jet's have a fighting chance. Our young guys may be a little exhausted --both physically and emotionally though-- so I don't know if they can climb this mountain.

Wouldn't surprise me to see the Jet's win Game 5 -- but 6 and 7 ??? -- I'm hoping they do like everyone else-- but wouldn't want to bet any money on it.

 

[bring back the jets]

I still think the Jets have a good chance in this series. Jets needs one of two things to happen - if they stop giving up soft goals or if Fleury falls off his form even just a bit they will win. Even if neither of those happen, they still have an outside chance because the games have been super close regardless. Fleury is no god lets not forget. There is a reason Pitts let him go. What we see now is the advantage that goalies have while playing under zero pressure, not some generational talent. Make him feel that pressure and I think he can be dismantled. Without him Vegas would be toast. If Jets win game 5 I think they will win the series. Just, for the love of god, don't give up an early goal again.

"not that common" ... At the Conference Final level it has happened once in the history of the NHL. In 2000 NJ beat Phil after being down 3-1. NJ won game #1, lost games 2-3-4, then won games 5-6-7.

I do think we can win game #5... but beyond that?

 

[Duke749]

Right now I can’t even imagine how we beat them once, let alon 3 times. I’m just all out of positivity at the moment. Sorry guys.

Also, trimming my beard. Time to change some luck maybe.

 

[Afterburner]

Jets.

 

[Gil Fisher]

Just have to win the next game. Keep the pedal down as we have for the last 5 periods. The pucks will go in or they won't, but Fleury is not playing at a sustainable level. It will correct...hopefully soon!

Adversity builds characters and molds champions*, let's see what they've got!!

Go Jets Go!

*I made that up.

It's now or never.

****ing afternoon game on Sunday.

**** off NBC.

Why? I don't mind an afternoon game. If you are concerned the Jets will not show up then that is their problem. If they cannot show up to a must win game because it is at 2pm then they don't deserve to advance. Vegas has to show up to play at time as well.

 

[EpicGingy]

I'm not giving up hope.

I know the Jets can beat Vegas. Just gotta take it one game at a time.

We need a big game from Hellebuyck.

I don't like afternoon games, they're stupid.

 

[raideralex99]

You forgot the third box ... the refs.

 

[Saintb]

It's now or never.
Jets.

Do or die?

 

[Gabe Kupari]

I think Jets win tomorrow but im not sure if they can beat vegas and the refs in Vegas. This entire year in Vegas the refs have favored them big time almost like bookies get to them.. The mafia even, its actually ridiculous how much favortism vegas gets in Vegas. If Jets win tomorrow and likely Tuesday.. They will win game 7.. Ill say this.. If IF big IF it goes 7... Jets win .

 

[SCP Guy]

Come on Jets....let's at least push this to 6 and make it respectable FFS

 

[TheRebuild]

Tampa just won three straight. Jets turn.

 

[Aggie204]

I’m already at peace on whatever the outcome is. We are further then what I originally predicted. The Chevy process looks like it’s paying off. I also see us being competitive for a long time, and this is not a one season fluke ala Oiler/Sens.

Its been one hell of a ride. I want to see this continue, and I think tomorrow can be the turnaround in the series. GoJetsGo!

 

[untouchable21]

Jets can’t play 3 good periods. How are they going to win 3 games?

Unfortunately for this this team, beating Nashville was their Stanley Cup.

They have no answer to the fast starts Vegas has had and the quick response after they’ve tied games. Vegas smells blood. Afternoon game is the final nail in the coffin. Jets are grounded.
