    Thursday, CBC, SN at 8:30 p.m. Tagline: "Whiteout vs. Yellow Snow" Storyline: After an epic comeback, Jets try to take a stranglehold on the heavyweight series. Quote: “Our fans are huge. It’s real too. Our crowd noise is from the crowd. It’s not from speakers, or music, or live bands, or whatever. That’s people making noise and that goes right through your body.” - Blake Wheeler Quote #2: “I mean, I’m not going to comment on the officiating, but..... (starts a one minute tirade on the officiating)" - PK Subban Fun facts aplenty: The 7 goals ties an all-time Jets playoff record for one game......First ever Jets game to be played in May......First comeback from 3 goals down by any team in the playoffs this year (0-28 prior to last night), first Jets comeback from that much since the Toronto 5-4 OT win in October 2016 (Laine's first hat-trick), and first 3 goal comeback win in regulation in the playoffs since Calgary in 2015.....Hellebuyck won his 50th game of the season (regular season and playoffs combined) last night, the 31st time that has ever happened.....there are 4 other goalies (Rinne, Vasileysky, Holtby, and Rask) who could reach that mark this year, there has never been a season where more than 2 have done it in the same year, at most, 4 could all reach that mark this year when it's all said and done if the playoffs play out a certain way...he is the 6th American goalie to hit that mark, joining Barrasso, Richter (who holds the American record with 58 wins), Thomas, Quick, and Bishop.....Bernie Parent and Martin Brodeur hold the all-time record with 59 wins in one year, playoffs included.....Brodeur hit 50 wins a record 4 times, no one else did it more than twice Poster that needs to happen behind the Predators bench for the next game: Separated at birth -

    Anyone hear the comments he made after the game? Implying he gets calls others don’t. Totally delusional. Dude should have at least a half dozen penalties in this series.

    Took away the news section when the Free Press put up their pay wall. Didn't make much sense linking to articles a lot of people couldn't read. And I just felt that it wasn't worth a dedicated forum for the type of coverage the Sun was providing. I find Twitter and 3downnation a good source for news. Ed Tait for Bomber specific news.

    Watching the post-game interviews and all the preds could do is complain about the refs.... watch all those penalties from the third period again and tell me which one wasn't an obvious penalty?... Pekka Rinne called his slashing penalty "a little tap on the back".... really?? you did a full 360 degree spin and got your entire body into slashing Lowry on that play... Meanwhile, Laviolette showed all class and despite being noticeably pissed off he accepted defeat and said he team needs to be more disciplined... the team should learn from him...

    Very proud to be a Winnipeg Jets fan today... a team that never whines about the officiating or uses excuses... Those tripping calls on us in the first were super lame... then Subban gets away with crosschecking and holding all series... then cries when the ref literally HAS to make a call because its 2' away from him. So glad guys like him and Kane are not a part of this team.

    Tuesday, CBC, SN at 7:00 p.m. Tagline: "Country Music Hall of Fame at Human Rights Museum" Storyline: Jets return to the "White House" with home advantage now in their grasp in a series that is starting to look as skilled and as nasty as advertised. Celebrity Quote: “Life is like a ten speed bicycle. Most of us have gears we never use." Peanuts creator, and Minnesota born-hockey fan Charles M. Schultz Quote #2: “Never let your head hang down. Never give up and sit down and grieve. Find another way." Baseball pitcher Satchel Paige. Recycled fun fact: Connor Hellebuyck is 7-0-1 with 2 shutouts and a .949 save percentage in the next game played after giving up 5 or more goals. Fun fact #2: Sunday's game was the longest game ever played in Winnipeg Jets history, either 1.0 or the Atlanta days.

    This is hilarious. He literally works like three hours a day and not every day. Spends more time as golf clubs than the shire house. And he’s now claiming he’s too busy to answer questions in a serious criminal investigation. What happened to his burning desire to be interviewed by Mueller? he really believes this. That since he’s president he’s above the law.

    I love the trade for the Bombers. We're still gonna get a player at 12 because I'm sure Shepley or Hunter will fall down the board if we want them there. If not, could always look to Simonise or Bennett or somebody like that. Moving out of a weak first round to get what is likely a higher first next year. Well done Walters.

    Honestly, being critical of someone praising KJU is fair but to then suggest that person is biased in favour of someone (not mentioned) is rich if you’re praising trump I see nothinf trump has done to impact North Korea actions. Unless you think trumps vocalizing his willingness to wipe NK off the map scared NK back to the table. And I don’t think that’s the case. It could be. But I don’t think so. It’s timing and efforts of SK. NK got to the point in their nuke program where they have something to negotiate with. And only trump thinks you can actually annihilate NK. No one else does. With Trumps threats insults and bluster and SK’s willingness to engage in meaningful dialogue I think it’s only fair to assume the matter had the greater impact. Its also possible KJU feels a kinship to Trump and the idea of a face to face meeting strokes his ego bigly. Rehardless no one is more congratulatory to trump than trump. But even if he brought peace to every corner of the world it’s not an excuse for his bad acts, currently under investigation.

    Take it with a grain of salt. Dont believe everything what GMs says day prior the draft. A smart GM will play his card close to his chest and not give any tip on what their plans are.

    Seems like it could be a case of North & South Korea legitimately believing that Trump and some members of his team, specifically Bolton, are crazy enough to start bombing the North, so they both worked harder to get their **** sorted out. I think NK knew prior administrations would never actually attack, so they were more or less free to do as they pleased. Trump appears to have out-crazied him.

    I think they take a DB like Bennett or Onyeka or a receiver depending on who is there in round one and don't take an OL. As Booch stated, they have Chungh, Goossen and Neufeld to start with 3 prospects/youngsters for depth. Plus Gray. I think they go OL later with a guy likely to go back to school or a futures pick.

    when you look at our roster we have 6 canadian lineman in house..and a possible 7th in Gray in the waiting possibly...with really at best in the next 2 years 3 going to start and 2 to be game ready replacements..I would think Couture/Spooner/Spelling and (if Gray ever makes it this yr or next ) covering our needs at the moment...so going O-line with our first 2 oicks..even first 3 is somewhat a waste. I would go with the player most likely to make a roster impact this year with the 1st..regardless of position and then the best player available with 2nd pick

    I hope they continue to draft linemen. You can never have too many quality Canadians on the lines. The worth of these players is hard to quantify. Every team is looking for them.

    Yes. The DOJ appointed a special prosecutor named Mueller to investigate trumps efforts to obstruct the FBi’s Investigation into Russian meddling. In fact some questions he has for Trump just leaked. Were you not aware of any of this? Stop watching Fox.

    The stone wielders part really is the biggest gripe for me. like they dont have to win they just have to put up a good fight do SOMETHING WITH THE STONE. I kind of figure once he knew where to find all the stones, or find some one who could find it he went for them all. Smash n grab. Because if he stretched it out slowly, the other stones would have been scattered to the winds and the wielders would mainly look to hide them rather then wield them. Yeah the black order didnt get introduced or set up well. I dont think they named any one but ebony maw. Hulk idk. Hes been set up as in the comics where his power is limitless. Idk what the end game is with him, i was thinking grey hulk but idk. I think either some thing multiversal, the ultimate nulifier being used to reset the whole universe, i dont think they will do beyonder/one above all etc, could also be ant man going back in time via going sub atomic. Captain marvel is my big concern going forward. I hope they use her in a combo of captain marvel and the sentry. To be marvels superman. And not for the crap propaganda that has ruined the comics.

    I know its not a popular opinion, but I'd be fine if the Province just paid off my mortgage and gave me a pass. I'd be a very wealthy citizen if that was the case, I suppose it doesn't matter since I don't have to be profitable, as long as I'm breaking even, paying my bills and being a solid citizen.
