WCQF Game 3: Winnipeg Jets (2) at Minnesota Wild (3) 7 PM ET | SN, TVAS, USA, FS-N+

[State of Hockey]

The Wild always do this in game 3 after going home with a 0-2 deficit. It's game 4 that matters.

 

[BagHead]

What happens when the best home team in the NHL plays the 2nd best home team in the NHL? The home team wins.

 

[The Winter Soldier]

Hellybuyck deep and low in the net. Wild have gone high on him all night and have been rewarded.

 

[Gurilla]

This is beautiful.

I'd much rather be up 2-1 in a series than down 0-2. Lol keep hating bud, Raptors should do well though!

 

[NHL1674]

Jets had some stinkers this season. For instance towards the end of the season they got wrecked by the Blackhawks (the game the accountant came in to play goalie) but they usually bounce back.

Still think the Wild are going to lose the series.

They will if they can't learn to win on the road.

 

[Sam Spade]

Can Minny bank some one or two of these goals for game four?

 

[rynryn]

popping in from the game to say beautiful GDT jink on chiarot...he's been horrible.

 

[Merya]

Wild is having a great game. Inspiring rise from almost the grave after getting buried away. Hats off.

 

[Cleatus]

Lol, guess the Jets decided to completely shut off their engines in that period. A 10 G/A loss is probably needed to teach them to not ever play like this in the post season, so keep them coming, Minny.

In that regard, I’m off. GG Wild, cya next game.

Minny beating Winny and the stripes tonight.

 

[Digitalbooya]

There is no chance you are a wild fan and you’ve been doing this for years. What’s your real account? Sad

How do you not have SoH blocked? Wild’s #1 troll.

 

[johnnybbadd]

I agree with some that Helly is showing a weakness on high shots. Minny was going high in game 1 but missed the net too much.

 

[Canuck16]

Just a gutty effort by the Wild. Give credit where it’s due. Would have been easy to lay down and die.

Yup. 100% credit earned in my books. I thought the Wild were doomed and the big bad Jets were just getting started.

Enstrom is garbage D. He can eat minutes but has not played much hockey this year and will look lost. Jets gotta hope he doesn't make an appearance.

Hellybuyck deep and low in the net. Wild have gone high on him all night and have been rewarded.

That was his issue last year and they said he worked on it. Old habits. Get him out of there.

 

[Steelers]

Have the Jets ever had back to back stinkers this year? I only remember them losing, then streaking after a loss

Lets Go Raptors!

 

[Mikeshane]

Hellebuyck tries to glove down that 5th goal which could have been a shoulder save.

 

[Jeti]

Tim Peel and Wes McCauley.

Makes sense. Calls at one end are fine, calls at the other are a steaming pile of horse shit.

Why is Tim Peel still employed as an NHL ref?

 

[Steelers]

Was Myers just targeted.... my 85 inch TV says.... yes

 

[Daximus]

Sportsnet is even more garbage than the Jets effort tonight... like what a sorry excuse for a broadcast...

 

[ChuckW]

'Sup?

 

[TheBluePenguin]

Just looked at the score for the first time since the 1st.... Anything happen?

 

[Gurilla]

Jets never went more than 2 games without picking up a point this season, they've bounced back really well and gone on streaks after ugly losses

You should never quit on your team bro. You'll never see your team comeback the way the bruins did against the leafs in game 7 couple years ago.

 

[Bjornar Moxnes]

Goals for alone is not everything. Every good chance the Wild get (Heck some goals weren't even good chances) turns out to be a goal. Whereas there have been countless chances where Winnipeg should have scored that didn't happen. Yes at the end of the day the score is all that matters, but what I'm trying to imply is those that use this game as a reason why the Wild will win in 6 (Da ****) are being delusional. If the Wild and Jets play the exact same way as they've played this game for the rest of the series, it'll be a lot closer, and the Jets could still win a game or two. Wild have been better today but not 6-2 better. Whereas Jets were way better than the 3-2 and 4-1 that they've won at the MTS centre.
