Pre-Game Talk: Playoffs rd 1 game 2 Friday April 13 630 CT

Simply game .... Jets need to hit Dumba every time he touches the puck by the third period he will be a non factor.

I'm am the only one who thinks the Jets played okay not a great game but finally woke up after being down 2-1. I guess that's what good teams do ... turn on the Jets when you are down.

Jets need to stick to their speed and skill game. We were doing the grinding thing for too long yesterday and as soon as we switched to what works for us it was cruise control from there on out.

Yes agreed. We got a bit caught up in the physical grinder and although we can match that, it took us off our speed/skill game a bit. That said, it still would have been a beat down on the scoreboard if Dubnyk doesn't play lights out.

I really hope Lowsy's ok cuz without him healthy, our chance to go far diminishes.

I think Fly wants to one up his bro in the celly dept.

I’m guessing Maurice says this even if his arm was amputated. Playoff propaganda mode

I’ve got my themes. Just looking for some help with some images to reduce my workload and get me to bed before 3am

I would love to help but my photoshop skills are how do they say it ...nonexistent

MAN I miss that place!

I'll take Mona Lisa for Pizza & Tres Visi for Pasta.

Never been a Santa Lucia fan, although a number of Jets have spent some time at their Corydon location, in particular Pavelec who watched a lot of soccer there.

A GF was enamoured by him & always insisted we go. My best experience was hitting the clubs jackpot on Big City 5's for $910.00 at that location...and off my last bet! Hit it on line 3 of a 15 cent bet. Drank a lot of tequila that night.

thought tanev wasn't as effective with the pinballing as usual. bufferflies all around. the Suter injury is really a swap out with Dumba now.

Ehlers going full Marty McFly here...

Wait... McFly!

 

[Derfel]

Trust me, you didn't miss anything (other than a big TN shoutout)

That's actually what greeted me as I fired up the stream - I got it on about 1.5 seconds before the "TRUE NORTH".

 

[Aavco Cup]

God I love this bromance

Laine graduated from imaginary violin to air guitar.

Player audio: Morrissey, Lowry and Ehlers. (Ehlers spoke about the energy they get from the crowd. He was specifically referencing the "oooo" from the crowd on his rush where Dumba almost caught a piece of him. Morrow said same thing last night).

Coach Maurice: Health Updates. The Jets power play. Importance of video during the series. When did the power play dynamic change in the NHL? Is being big "still OK"? Is big and good beat small and good? What does the hit Byfuglien laid on Eriksson Ek do for the team? On the pinch that led to the Wild goal. Has the philosophy changed about dumping the puck at an empty net late in a game? Taking time and space away. On the impact Byfuglien has with his defensive partner. On adapting style of play. Did he feel like they started getting to the middle of the ice? Is there a comparison speed wise to Ehlers and how can that best be utilized? Who is the fastest skater? How much of the other NHL series will he be watching? On Wheeler's leadership and consistency.

Vague injury reports and timelines? This is going to take some getting used to...

 

[Royale With Cheese]

Any word on Perreault?

Dubnyk said the Wild played a great game for an environment like ours for two periods. If the game plan is for him to stand on his head and weather 60 mins of mayhem then I look forward to Friday.

It sounds like they wanna open it up at home too based on his comments. I welcome this as well. The Jets are far faster, younger, more skilled , and have a better defence.

I don’t expect a player to be too negative after a one goal game.

I posted this in the GDT. LeBrun was the only media person who noticed apparently.

I noticed during the game and mentioned it in the post-game thread. He came off one shift early and looking rough (late in the second period). I was concerned he wouldn't come out for the 2nd. He did a bit of a turn on the ice before the 2nd and didn't look great. But he played a very strong 3rd period, and didn't shy away from physical play. I'm hoping he'll be okay...

More a comment on their game plan. I can understand trapping on the road.

I would advise against opening it up at any time, but look forward to them giving it a go at home.

Jets were good for most of the game. They were actually dominating early in the 3rd even though the Wild scored a couple then. I think the Jet's biggest sag was midway through the 2nd. When the Wild scored a couple I was concerned, but felt that the Jets were in control and the Wild were sort of hanging on.

I agree about Dumba. They need to continue to pressure him and I think we'll see him start to make mistakes with the puck, and then the Jets need to capitalize and make them pay.

The Wild scored 2 goals early in the third and were outshot 17-1 after the 2nd goal.

Ooops. I meant the Jets were playing well early in the 3rd (not 2nd), even though they gave up a couple of goals early in the 3rd.

 

[204hockey]

I think is frenchie is out we run
Ehler little armia
Laine stats roslo

Gives us a little better balance imo swap armia with roslovic and run stats line more if need be

 

[Aggie204]

Even when the score was 2-2 SN knew they already won

 

[Tom ServoMST3K]

Can’t wait to do it all over again! We need to get a CLT chant going. Show that 4th line some love!

It's the CLoT line!
