May 20, 20214 yr comment_504957 I can't believe we are winning against Edmonton, I expected the worst from this
May 20, 20214 yr comment_504958 Mine Smith with a poor decision to head off and we have our first shot since the Toninato goal. And another one past the invisible goalie!

May 20, 20214 yr comment_504963 Well, for one game at least a one-man team does not mean more than 4 line depth. And although I would not recommend 9 minutes of zero shots and dump outs after taking the lead, I will take the result. And just a casual observance, but the Jets showed some determination tonight, no? 😉 Edited May 20, 20214 yr by TrueBlue4ever
May 20, 20214 yr comment_504965 great game, did not think they could do it. clearly were coasting a bit the last while. Edited May 20, 20214 yr by Mark F
May 20, 20214 yr comment_504968 Did not expect that. Gritty win, to say the least. Helle was very solid.
May 20, 20214 yr comment_504970 Got to say I am enjoying the shock on the faces of the taking heads at Sportsnet (mainly the Sports Central desk) who can’t believe that the Jets were even competitive, much less won and shut down McDavid and Draiseitl.
May 20, 20214 yr comment_504971 These sports netwok has a bias for Matthews vs McDavid for the next round because they think it will garner more viewership. I hope the Jets will crush their dreams. Edited May 20, 20214 yr by M.O.A.B.
May 20, 20214 yr comment_504972 Ridiculous defensive play on the empty netter by Wheeler. He would have probably scored with the goalie in there.
May 20, 20214 yr comment_504975 A road win is great but seems less significant this year knowing we don’t have the whiteout at home waiting to carry the Jets and suck the life out of the Oilers.

May 20, 20214 yr comment_504977 Helle stole one.... Team played generally well defensively. At some point McJesus is gonna take over and this is gonna be a long series, but Goddamit this was fun to watch. I'd hoped for OT... 7 games of multiple OTs is what these two great teams deserve.... But it was a fun game. Refs kept the whistles tucked... Just how I like it. Playoff hockey... Great goaltending on both sides. Bounces went Jets way tonight.
May 20, 20214 yr comment_504980 When the Jets scored the go-ahead goal with about 11 minutes to go, I fully expected McDavid to be on the ice for about 9 of those minutes. Don't think I was too far off.

And be disciplined...don't give him any extra chances. Ahhh we just did.

Will they let them play or will they call 2 minutes for looking at McDavid inappropriately? One of the best reffed games I've seen for a while. They let them play. I hope this continues.

May 20, 20214 yr comment_505028 "OiL iN fOuR!" Love it when the Jets shut up the naysayers. Solid performance last night and a big statement win, IMO.
