GDT: Preds @ Jets • Tue Mar 8, 7PM [No tank talk in GDT please]

[Nickel eye Heel hers]

$44.8M cap hit, about $15M more than the Leafs

Putting beer in the fridge now.
I expect a high scoring game should be exciting to watch if you're a preds fan.

Did I mention there's beer in the fridge ?

I am happy some of the kids are getting a look even if it is because of injuries.

Before anyone plays with Thorburn, they should undergo special training so they know what to expect. I recommend making them play NHL 16 with two AI linemates on "Derp" skill setting.

C'mon, Thorburn is easy to play with; he plays a very predictable game

Scheifele is tied for 1st in the league for points since Feb 18 (Little's injury).

Perhaps I'm thinking more of last year as I haven't really watched much this season, admittedly.

Perhaps. I can remember two games this year very well. A blow out game where Buff "went over the top rope" in a scrum, and the Neal running Lowry, diving, blowing a 3 or 4 goal lead, and Wheeler ending it in OT game. Those two certainly had some entertainment in them.

1 and 1/3 NHL forward lines, 2 and 2/3 AHL forward lines, 4 NHL D men, 2 AHL D men and a KHL goalie! How can we lose!

Big thanks to Y for stepping up in the GDT department once again!

C'mon Sip, if you didn't have that you wouldn't be happy.

Nashville is 7-0-3 in their last ten Jets are 2-6-2 so I am predicting a Jets win

Got a couple new ones that I tried in the past week. Abita Purple Haze which I tried on tape and absolutely loved. And Kentucky Honey Barrel Brown Ale.

Thor is a great skater, he's big, strong, forchecks well.....if only he could relax a bit and make some plays.

Guy has no hands at all. If he had average hands he could probably score 8-10 goals a year. He knows where to go in the offensive zone when someone else has the puck. Just terrible finishing ability.

Just curious, but do you have beer in the fridge?

Have you tried any of the Innis and Gunns brands or Stanley Park winter ale ?

Great Game day beer

He has good straight line speed, but he is very slow to get moving and not agile. That's why he really isn't very effective in either the defensive or offensive zones.

By far.... and I mean a country mile- the worst player in our lineup who has no finish is Burmistrov.
Thor- well... he just lacks talent- great hair though

Pretty enjoyable interview on TSN radio with Daniel Berthiaume earlier today.

Talks about his first game with the Jets, Pokey and the Bandit, and taking shots with Hawerchuk in Hawerchuks backyard.

Don't know how to post a link, just search "Daniel Berthiaume TSN". Title is Berthiaume: NHL debut seem like yesterday,

Not Stanley Park, but Innis and Gunn I have tried and I like it quite a bit. Monday Night Drafty Kilt is a dam good scotch ale brewed out of Atlanta, Georgia. Not sure if you would be able to find it but it's great on tap.

I'll try to find a pub that serves it next time I'm state side. It's only sold in the city of Toronto it looks like, Canada side.

He's a strong, straight ahead skater, I wouldn't call him a "great " skater, his agility leaves a bit to be desired, don't you think?

If you had to use a beer to describe the Jets, what would you pick?

If I had to describe the Jets from December on...Lucky draft beer or maybe a very warm, sat in the sun Heineken, so warm you can smell the after taste before you drink it.

What would your choice be as a description ?

This year?

Perhaps, but I know there are times I'm shocked at his skating...even the quickness/agility element. I think his issues are more to do with not being able to "slow down the game" in his head and the stone hands.

 

[Channelcat]

This year?

Umm OK I'm not even going to try and top that.
