Game Time : 6 Saturday. City-TV.

Game Stories : Jets -The last game of the season has them going for their 7th win in a row. Predators - It's a must-win game if they don't want to face Chicago.

Local Celeb Quote of the Game(Winnipeg Edition) : Doug Henning - If I produce a 450-pound Bengal tiger, it's going to create a lot more wonder than if I produce a rabbit.

What the Jets should have been playing for these last couple of weeks...

Go Jets G ... aww never mind ...

Meh there's a lot of questions about Nolan Patricks game. It's a weak draft. I just like seeing our best players playing good hockey. We have Scheifele, and Wheeler in the top ten for points in the NHL. Our two best young players Laine, and Ehlers are top 30 in points in the NHL. Trouba who's been great all season is finding his offensive game that we havent truly seen since glimpses of it in his rookie season.  We have role players like Little and Perreault contributing. Hopefully Connor and maybe Roslovic can contribute next season. Guys like Pavs, Thorburn, and Stuart will be gone. There's still a question mark with goaltending and coaching but i still believe in Hellebuyck. Carey Price had a 9.05 Save percentage in his first full season after a good rookie season (9.20) Hellebuyck posted 9.18 and 9.06 respectively. I think the future still looks bright. Heck I feel a lot better getting a top ten draft pick and winning 7 in a row to close the season then getting a top 5 pick and losing 7 in a row to close the season. 

oh sadness woes, our season ends tonight, I swear the season just started. this is going to be a long summer

A long, wonderful summer, filled with evenings at the stadium and competitive football team. Is it June yet?!?!?!?!?

it's not going to be that long.  The thing about hockey is that there's only really a three month break, from mid June to mid Sept.  Not very long.  Now football on the other hand...it's an eternity...

Agree with most of what you write here but Bryan Little a role player? When healthy he's more than a role player for this team imo.

30 goals, 66 points is what little trends out to had he played a full season. 

Still a top level player.

sigh, I was referring to the Jets, that is what I mean by long summer. sure I have playoffs to tide me over until football season starts, but as soon as all the canadian teams are eliminated that's when the length starts

yeah but how fun is it when the Bombers are on a losing streak? I'm afraid that Nichols won't be able to deliver like he did last year and either he'll have a slump, or he'll break

that reminds me doesn't the organization have some kind of award that is given to a jet after a bad injury? and it was like given to Redmond back in the 2013 season, it was like the one thing that was brought over when the team relocated?

Dan Snyder award?

yeah isn't that it?

 

oh I was thinking that Myers should get it but whatever

1st Period

Nada happened.

2nd Period

Giveaway on the PP makes it 1-0 Preds.

2-0 on a Preds PP but might be interference. It is. Back to 1-0. Nash challenges and loses challenge.

Out shot in the second by 15 I think. Ouch.

3rd Period

245 periods down, 1 to go.

Kyle Connor's ties it! Beauty too.

WHEELS!! SHORTHANDED! 2-1

Edited April 9, 20178 yr by FrostyWinnipeg

and Connor scores

and our captain has scored our last goal of the season

and we have our very first 7 game winning streak

7 wins in a row is a franchise record.

Thanks to all for the game day chats.

I'll say this for Maurice he realized early in the game that Conner is not a 4th line player, kid will be on the opening day roster next year you can see that spending the year with the Moose has helped his all around game. 

I just hope Chevy does something this summer regarding personnel to make this team a contender instead of thinking the real Jets are the ones we saw the last 6 weeks when we were out of playoff contention. We won games but there was nothing left to play for.

Goalie. Might already have the D man. Would like to see another solid depth D.
