[Kind Sir]

Very clever! Baschi's film only got halfway through the story and we're just over halfway to 16 wins.

Go Jets go!

People saying the Jets aren't going to sweep need to get their heads examined. Winnipeg just got off a 7 game series against the President's Trophy winner and still had their legs. Hellebuyck let in a cheap one I'm sure he'd like back from McNabb after a 7 minute delay.

I think the Jets win 4-0. The Caps are going 4-0 too.

While I think the Jets are the better team and will win the series I don't think anyone should assume that that the Jets can win 4 straight against them.
Vegas have too much compete to not make this a good series.

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

I call 2-0 Vegas.

 

[Tom ServoMST3K]

Vegas needs to have a better start to this game.

I’m expecting both teams to come out and play a better game. Last game LV looked a bit rusty and the Jets admitted they were a bit tired from no break after the game 7. Should be a better game for both tonight I think.

 

[DannyGallivan]

I picked Winnipeg in 5, which will include a sweep at home. So, they will win tonight. And as far as Winnipeg-boy Ryan Reaves goes, I hope that they play him a lot. When he's on the ice, it's even less likely that the Golden Knights will score. He may be the only guy in the league who can come close to matching Byfuglien physically, but he can't skate, shoot or pass like the big man.

I mean Buff can’t really do much besides hit either

Umm, okay, sure.

*proceeds to win Conn Smythe trophy*

How can a smart coach like Gallant waste a roster spot on a helmet puncher like Reaves? It's not 1976 anymore.

is this the same troll from the Preds series? Never seen so much salt in one person.

Too obvious man, gotta go more subtle to really get the people going.

Bahaha.

Would saying Blake Wheeler was so desperate to get out of Winnipeg that he allowed Ryan Reaves to check him into the Vegas Bench get people going?

Carriers day to day, and no one else has looked too impressive. He looked unRyan Reaveslike game 6 against San Jose, I could understand giving him another game to see if it stuck. But he was pretty moot in Game 1.... then again so was everyone.

 

[antiqueslivers]

once again Zhamnov5goalgame you are the pinnacle of posters!

Well we will see who will win the Reaves - Buff battle tonight won’t we?

Other than contribute 15 points (and counting) thus far in the playoffs.

 

[Satire]

Hoping the Jets win this one, but I think Vegas comes out strong tonight with a solid performance. Should be a great hockey game.

 

[DannyGallivan]

Vegas wants Buff to fight Reaves, which is why it won't happen.
Don Cherry was right... Pittsburgh needed a policeman for Crosby, so Reaves made sense there. Reaves can't stop Byfuglien, and Winnipeg doesn't goon Vegas' top players, so he's only taking up a roster spot with the Golden Knights.

 

[Hockeyholic]

I really really don't like Vegas's odds of winning 4 out of 5 against this team. It's time to roll the dice tonight and cash in.

 

[Tom ServoMST3K]

I mean probably.

Winnipeg people are pretty thin skinned about the city. Unless it's another winnipegger insulting the city.

The nice thing I've seen is less people are affected by "HURR DURR ATLANTA" these playoffs, which I always found really weak in terms of trash talk, but got some fans really angry for some reason.

Buff's not stupid enough to fight a useless player like Reaves.

 

[PhilJets]

Lets go Jets

Bring the speed to Vegas
Need to win game 2.

 

[Jordan Belfort]

Buff's not stupid enough to fight a useless player like Reaves.

We will see when he starts pounding the Jets small guys what the response will be. Looking forward to it
