Love that we made the playoffs , get Ehlers back in the lineup and play Heinola and Stanley and we could do some damage especially if Helly plays like last night. Go Jets Go!!!

Refreshing, I think we all can get negative at times so it’s nice to see positive comments

Although Edmonton had our number if Vancouver can kick them 6-3 we can beat them too.

Edmonton has had our number........However........ we are due for a positive run of play against them.
Perfetti is (quite easily) the best prospect in Canada; Heinola the best defensive prospect (in Canada).
We swept Deadmonton
A positive in my books

Let’s carry that feeling through the week until the next matchup!

I don’t see us as a cup contender, I see us as a serious underdogs vs the Leafs in rd 2 (Habs are done next game).....but at worse we’re still going to end up as the 2nd best team in Canada which is much better then most people thought we were before the season started......that’s very positive to me and full credit to the team for that. Very happy with that result if it happens.

I love this team for making me eat a big 'ol bag of negativity crow.
And I'm positive I will continue to be pessimistic and critical in gdt's.

I think it will go at least 6 and wouldn't surprise me if it went to 7 games.
They have better forward depth than Deadmonton (even with JT out) and their D is much better.
We have better forwards with JT out and are better in goal with them having a better D.
I think our high end players have more playoff experience and I am confident that Maurice will have a good game plan prepared.
I guess what I'm trying to say is ...
I LIKE OUR CHANCES!!!

Holl, Muzzin, Rielly ... all very low IQ players in the defensive end. Forecheck them hard and don’t give them any time and they’ll make mistakes. Brodie is solid; Bogosian shouldn’t be in the league anymore.
Re: netminders — Campbell has looked relatively shakey, Montreal just has no threats to score. The Jets need to get on him early.

I can appreciate your enthusiasm......but I’ll leave it at that in the positivity thread.
Yup. Now one of 8 teams left in the NHL playoffs. Not what I expected at the beginning of the season, considering the major gaps on D.

Agreed. When can debate whether Chevy could/should of added a top 4 D better then what we have now during last offseason.....but the fact is once the season started we have the D core that we have (TDL he tried but was blocked by no movement clause) and the Jets have overachieved all season in most peoples eyes. Some didn’t even have the Jets as a playoff team, never mind advancing to the 2nd rd. So in my eyes, while we need to continue to improve our top 4 D via FA/trade/internally, this season was a success even if we lose in the 2nd rd (TBD).
Im really waiting to hear if PLD has fought a season long injury or not. Then regardless of the answer I want to see him next year with a full camp, full offseason and no drama.........my expectation is he will be much improved over this year and back to his 55-65 point pace which is what most of us were expecting and want.

We have a few advantages over the Leafs -
The most obvious is in the net - Helle is miles above what they have. Our shooters will have him wondering what he is doing out there.
The rest is close - both depth teams with better O than D and can be shaky in their own end.
The big one for me is how the Leafs can implode - they are a fragile bunch that are under a lot of pressure to take this team to levels they haven't seen in almost 55 yrs.
They brought in a few vets TY to help them deal with that but I still think they can be ruffled very easily.
I feel more confident going into the Leafs series over the Oilers - we match up well with these guys.

With Stanley looking like an NHL player, the Jets have now have a very low "miss" rate for their 1st round picks...
Scheifele
Trouba
Morrissey
Ehlers
Connor
Roslovic
Laine
Stanley
Vesalainen (?)
Heinola (?)
Perfetti (?)
Only one top 5 pick, and average pick at around #14. That is a very good rate of success, particularly if Vesalainen, Perfetti and Heinola make the NHL.
