Watching Montreal lately I’m less and less worried about them each game they play. They seem to be coming back down to earth again. Hopefully the Jets will still have it in their head that their a top team and show up like they have in the past against the top teams. I don’t think it’s unrealistic that there’s quite a few winnable games here in this next stretch of 6 against the Habs/ Canucks.
Hopefully by the time we get to the Leafs they’ll be on one of their patented late season slides.

I’m expecting to win a few vs them

I think we will match up well

 

[rubikscube]

Often times the Jets come out flat after extended time off. I want to see a quick start.

Early on, Habs had a number of guys punching way above their weight, scoring-wise. Looking at that roster, we knew they wouldn't keep scoring 5 goals a game. Their D is also nothing special - Price has a lousy SV % at the moment. No reason why we cannot take it to this crew.

All I know is that Corey Perry always manages to fk over the Jets.

Habs nation is melting down after last night's loss to Ottawa, if they lose to Ottawa again tonight then they'll come in angry on Thursday and I don't like our chances.

I disagree. I want the wheels to come off the wagon

I think alot of teams are going to be saying the exact same thing about Dubois and the Jets.

They aren't the only ones. It seems to be a "thing" everywhere.

 

[BatVader]

Jets need to come out strong early.... hit them hard and get ahead fast... if we can get them on their heels then they should self destruct.

 

[Hunter368]

This will be a tough test, I'm curious how we do vs Habs in series

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

I think if we can get pucks in deep, skate hard and get pucks to the net, we're gonna win this one!
Stupid 4 day breaks.

We also need to give it 110%.

Montreal had extremely unsustainable shooting numbers to start the season. They're still a good team and match up well against the Jets, but they aren't as dangerous as the first 10 or so games would have you believe.

Must’ve taken the PR class for NHL players lol

We've got to...you know.. force them to play our game, you know!

 

[RabidOne]

For 60 minutes.

Except the time he took the butt end of Chiarot's stick to the chin. Perry was the one getting screwed there since the refs didn't even call a penalty on the play.

 

[10Ducky10]

The Habs are going to be wondering how to handle that big french center playing wing on the top line.

And den dere's dat fast guy dat skates like Yvan Cournoyer and the other winger on dat line dat plays like Lafleur. Mon dieu, tabernac.

Two things

COVID takes away the Habs "home ice advantage" at Bell MTS Place.
I hope this and the fact that we play them 9 times will add up to that elusive home win over the team in red.

Counter attack - The Jets can't be their own worst enemy with mistakes that lead to an abundance of scoring chances for MTL. We get away with a lot of sloppy play in our end and MTL is built to capitalize on those moments.

Ok make it 3 things...

We could really use a Connor hot streak. He looks like he's lost a lot of confidence since his great start and has been streaky before. KFC on fire would go a long way to getting the Jets to the promise land. Why do so many of our HF Jets faithful misspell Kyle's last name?

 

[Hollywood3]

For 60 minutes.

The Jets need to want it more.

 

[Evil Little]

The Jets need to want it more.

On how much of the ice surface should they play with intensity? Just the middle 150'?

I agree KFC is in a funk and that cycle is typical with goal scorers. We need him to pick it up in this stretch (fingers crossed).

Conner is such a easy name to spell too .
