GDT: Game 82 - Vancouver Canucks @ Winnipeg Jets - Thursday, April 18th, 2024 - 7:00pm CDT - TSN3 - CJOB/Power 97

[Atoyot]

This will be the first game of the season I'll have to entirely miss. Hopefully I'll be able to keep my ears shut and watch the replay without spoilers

 

[larmex99]

Best thing about tonight is Helle is not even dressing he can sit up in the pb have some popcorn and just relax.

I hope that Helle is going to spend his evening reading through a few thousand copies of the lists from retired goalies top 5 goalies currently playing where he didn’t get 1 mention.

 

[bustamente]

I fully believe that Toffoli and Monahan are pure rentals for this team, it would be nice if both Lambert and Chibby really show well tonight, come into camp next year and grab two spots.

Well, the award show is running a bit late, but I would just like to thank each and every one of you for making this forum so much fun and enjoyable, and there is still more to come. Playoffs Baby! Go Jets Go!

Oh and don't forget to stick around after the game to find out who wins the Prediction Contest this season. It's a close one, so you won't want to miss the final results

What about tiny Park Your Ford, the pinto sized Moose!

at least Ehlers is dressed.....

 

[LucianoBorsato]

I hope that Helle is going to spend his evening reading through a few thousand copies of the lists from retired goalies top 5 goalies currently playing where he didn’t get 1 mention.

Oh where is this from, there was a poll of former goalies?

 

[jokesondee]

Oh where is this from, there was a poll of former goalies?

That clown shoe Martin Brodeur was on some show back in February and named his top 5 active goalies. He must still be drinking because his list was a farce. Helle didnt make the cut but the legendary Adin Hill and illustrious Jacob Markstrom did LMFAO.

 

[ThinIce61]

So what's the actual lineup tonight.

 

[Atoyot]

So what's the actual lineup tonight.

LW/RW Nikita Chibrikov (2021, 50th, WPG)

NHL debut tonight!

Not sure if it was posted in here.

Thanks. Is he the only one? If lineups were posted might have been by someone on Ignore. There's about 80 of them after all.

 

[Howard Chuck]

I mean the Jets have 2 things to play for and the Canucks one. Both are playing for 2nd in the West (it's not nothing), and the Jets are playing for the Jennings.

I can't wait for the chaotic energy of having so many new players in the lineup, and so much youth. My interest has climbed at least 1000%

Go Jets Go!

I'm really looking forward to this game now.

 

[lanky]

So what's the actual lineup tonight.

Per Daily Faceoff

Iafallo Lambert Vilardi
Ehlers Monahan Toffoli
Niedereiter Gus Appleton
Perfetti Kupari Chibrikov

 

[Skidooboy]

That reminds me. At the end of my astronomy lecture, I asked the prof what happened before the Big Bang.

She replied, “sorry, no time!”

If only there was a space to lodge a complaint.

 

[ThinIce61]

Per Daily Faceoff

Iafallo Lambert Vilardi
Ehlers Monahan Toffoli
Niedereiter Gus Appleton
Perfetti Kupari Chibrikov

Thanks. We might be in tough to get a win tonight. I see Morrissey and Dilly out as well. I would have considered sitting Vilardi as well seeing he's a little fragile. Not surprised Barron is getting the night off as well. Need him ready for Monday.

 

[scelaton]

at least Ehlers is dressed.....

He will have played all 82 games this season, first time since 17-18 and one of only a handful of players on the team to do so.

 

[bustamente]

A couple of games looked iffy for him but it looks like he made it, no jinx for tonight intended.

 

[Royale With Cheese]

Per Daily Faceoff

Iafallo Lambert Vilardi
Ehlers Monahan Toffoli
Niedereiter Gus Appleton
Perfetti Kupari Chibrikov

I'm surprised to see Lambert in the 1C spot. Trial by fire.

 

[hockeyarena]

I'm surprised to see Lambert in the 1C spot. Trial by fire.

Watched him on the moose last weekend he's definitely a year or two away still but it will be nice to see him for sure.

 

[DRW204]

Jets missing an entire top line and perfetti still a 4th line player lol

 

[bustamente]

I think the lines tonight will be fluid, who you start with isn't necessarily who you end the game with. I'm sure the Jets would like to win but the outcome at least tonight means nothing in the grand scheme of things.

 

[lanky]

I'm surprised to see Lambert in the 1C spot. Trial by fire.

Is it really the top line when it includes a 1st liner, a 4th liner and an AHLer? I would argue that Monahan's line is our top one tonight.

One more award, and I am sure it is by a unanimous vote, for outstanding performance in GDT production ................
@macmaroon .
You're probably asleep so no need to come up and accept your award. Its in the mail.

Thanks for your great work mac. I always look forward to your GDT.

 

[Upperdeckjet]

I'm going to try and get to the game early today so I can watch the solo skate by Lambert and Chibrikov.

Hopefully I can witness history in the making as two future Jets start their career.

 

[Inanna]

According to the Lunchtime Loudmouth (tm), our series against Denver starts on Sunday. I thought it was on Monday.

As irritating as he is, he's also very often right. But I can't find anything from the NHL on when the western series will begin. Perhaps local ticket holders can give me an accurate answer?

Still says TBD on my tickets. They aren't going to announce anything until the other two match ups are set later tonight (who Dallas plays and who Edmonton plays).

Word on the street is that it's Sunday, per people who work at the arena
