Let's ground (and pound) some Jets.

 

[GingerJesus28]

Thank you Canucks for sucking ass!

 

[TheNumber4]

Oilers in 5. We’ll find a way to screw up one game, but we own these Jets and the McDavid will not be denied.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

I think we win but if the Jets get some bodies back it won't be easy.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

Jets will be a tough out...especially if Hellebuyck gets hot
Jets D is weak but they'll have Ehlers back to make their forward group even deeper

let's hope they take the Jets a little more serious than they did the Hawks
Oilers in a tough 6 games

Where do grounded planes go if there is no airport?

 

[5 14 6 1]

I predict McDavid goes full Super Saiyan and gets 15 points in the series for the win.

Drai with 10 points

 

[Nostradumbass]

Maybe they get sent to their room? That's where I always went when I got grounded.

 

[Spawn]

We will need our top players to continue their dominance over their top players. After our top 2 they are a far deeper team up front than us.

That being said, McDavid has owned them all year. Hopefully that will continue.

Oilers in 6.

 

[LMFAO]

McDavid vs that Jets defense will be fun to watch (for us lol)

Not looking forward to face the Leafs tho

In this analogy you don’t have a room.

 

[boatsNhossa]

As an Edmontonian living in winnipeg, their donairs here are trash.. so oilers in 4.

I feel better about our chances vs the Jet's than the Leaf's against Montreal. Playoff Price is a beast, Montreal has a big, mean defensive group that won't make it easy on Toronto's skilled forwards. Leaf's are still obviously the favorite, but it won't be an easy series for them.

I got Oilers in 7.

Hellebuyck is good enough to steal them a couple of games and we will be having some back to backs which probably means Koskinen comes in and loses us a game.

Also playoff reffing will be a huge advantage for Winnipeg. So much so that I was tempted to put down Jets in 7.

Koskinen will not play unless Smith absolutely implodes or gets injured.

5.5games. Kind of what happened with Boston final in 1990....

One Jets home game is delayed, then cancelled as NBC can't find out where the DT and NHL caliber arena is...After having to drive in from Minneapolis.

No seriously, this is the arena, this is where the jets play..excuse tourists for thinking its a large Urban Sobeys marketplace where they sell produce and vegetables.

You'll find it eventually though. Everything in Winnipeg is located on Portage. Yeah, just next to the Glasnost Radisson. lol, yeah, the Radisson. Most cities have a swanky hotel next door with access. Winnipeg has the Pandemic Radisson. Don't cough, they'll lock you up. The Radisson is the building that looks like a nondescript precast 1970 era "tower" nightmare. At 20floors clocks in as highest building in Manitoba. Or Winnipeg. They spared no expense in sourcing out the best concrete prefab.

Just hold up this picture when trying to find your hotel

No seriously, this is the arena...

Don't let the WHA banners confuse, its the only thing Winnipeg has ever won..

They really are an NHL City.

 

[CycloneSweep]

The bottom 6 and defense will decide the series.

 

[Cloned]

I’d start Stalock against Montreal tomorrow now that there is literally nothing to play for. I’d also rest McDrai.

 

[Soli]

Pounce early, attack their defense relentlessly with speed McDrai duo, and let doubt creep back into their minds.

 

[bellagiobob]

Would assume the team gets their vaccine shots on Thursday when they get back from Montreal? Good day to get it done, gives them a couple of days before the Vanc game to deal with side effects, and a full week before the playoffs.

 

[Shanahanigans]

Time for Nuge and Yamamoto to bear down. If they get going I think we have a good chance to come out of the North.

Don’t get my thread locked.

 

[GingerJesus28]

These poll results might be bad mojo lmfao

Jets won't be easy with Ehlers back, but I still think we win in 6 or 7.
