First!

I'm looking forward to this rematch, I like the tenacity I've seen and hope it translates well against the Wild.

Oh ya, lets hope the Columnists in the city actually watch the game before coming up with their story theme this time

 

[Crosby87Domi11]

Lets hope they pull out another win! (preferably in regulation )

 

[Huffer]

Really going to need to win games against the teams we are chasing.

Let's hope the Jets go into Minny and get the win in regulation.

I continue to find it amazing that the other member of the media, the Jets and Bombers put up with that crap. Like you mentioned in the other thread, Lawless often spends more time talking in Noel's press conference's than Noel does, and Noel is not a coach who is holding anything back, he talks. I wish they'd institute some sort of policy where you have 15 seconds or something to get your question out, and if you can't they move on. If you want to interview someone, set up a 1 on 1.

^ this. They really do need to put a limit on how long you have to ask your questions. It's stupid that a rule isn't already in place

My favorite Noel response: "Is there a question in there?"

The phrase "big game" can't be understated here - this is an important divisional match, with a couple of win streaks on the line and a chance for the Jets to add 2 more valuable points as they chase a wild-card spot.

With that all being said, however, it's just the sort of game that I expect the Jets to come out very flat for. Not that I want to see a lacklustre effort, but after two plus seasons it's not like there isn't any precedent for it.

A win would be nice, but more important, IMO, is a complete, cohesive team effort and a "never give up" game. Long term, I think that's more important for the team.

Lol. Very Sutter-esque of him.

And it's always after one persons "question".

 

[Skidooboy]

"One last question...Garry?"

"Well Claud, as the team goes through the season and players like Evander Kane are scoring goals and others are too should we expect the team to tell as a team , cough cough, within the framework as it stands, the team is a team, Dustin Byfuglien, team effort. you sure must be happy with the effort, butterflies, donkeys monkey skins pie.......?"

Lol XD

I'm looking forward to a good game. The crowd is always fun, a divisional rival they'll want to get 2 points away from and hopefully some new blood drawing into the lineup (Redmond? Peluso?). I think they will play confident and physical.

Got new glasses today. These rose coloured lenses are awesome

 

[sipowicz]

Shawn Matthias for Slater and Thorburn straight up?

 

[YWGinYYZ]

Shawn Matthias for Slater and Thorburn straight up?

I'd do that, but I'm not sure what would prompt the Panthers to want to do that trade. What brings his name up Sip?

 

[Crosby87Domi11]

MATTHIAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please! Although I doubt it will happen :/

HNIC s Freeman say he might be available, OK I throw Stu in to!

LOL meant Friedman

Oooh that could work! Although I'm not sure FLA needs a dman.

Just checked in to the Crowne Plaza in St. Paul, getting stoked for tomorrow, seeing Jets shirts all over the place!

Were they Zoomies?

 

[King Woodballs]

2 points would be good
2 points in regulation would be better

 

[JC Numminen]

If I post the GDT early could a mod hide it until 12:00? Have to be up early

 

[Johnny HFBOARDS]

we won't look

 

[Ramsalot]

Jets, 11th in the west with 22 points.

Montreal, 7th in the east with 22 points and holding the second wildcard spot.

Yeah, it's totally easy to get into the playoffs in the west with those two less teams.

 

[Aavco Cup]

Will be part of the true north strong and free invading the X tomorrow night.
