April 30, 20241 yr Author comment_694077 We only have to come back from 3-1. It's been done before. EDM against WPG VAN against WPG Okay, maybe not the best examples.

April 30, 20241 yr comment_694082 Ok don't ask me why but I'm calling it, Jets win this one. I keep remembering the comeback against the Hurricanes. They have to want this one,hit everything that moves boys and leave nothing left in the tank.Play like your captain! Go Jets! Edited April 30, 20241 yr by bb1
April 30, 20241 yr comment_694087 I guess that answers the question as to whether we are re-signing Toffoli....

Saw in a tweet from John Lu today that Bowness called him last night and was told he was "nauseous because he hadn't eaten since the accident occurred & wasn't feeling great".
April 30, 20241 yr comment_694103 The logical rational side says end this misery and let the autopsy begin. The emotional always have hope side says hey we win this one, still one back in Denver, we gotta chance.

April 30, 20241 yr comment_694106 Excerpt taken from an article from Kerry Collins Hockey Writers: Thud: Connor Hellebuyck Stinks Right Now Connor Hellebuyck may take home his second Vezina Trophy this season, but it’s a good thing votes are cast before the puck drops on the postseason. Hellebuyck has been brutal in this series, posting a dismal .870 save percentage and 5.22 goals-against average through the first four games. It finally got him benched in Game 4, as Laurent Brossoit took over in the third period of Colorado’s 5-1 victory. Not sure if that's how Bowness and crew would write that up.

April 30, 20241 yr comment_694117 All these lineup changes may be too little too late but I hold hope they will get us back into the series especially the forward line-up changes. To be hyper critical from my amateur lazy boy line of sight, Bowness seemed a bit stubborn/slow on making significant adjustments to counter what the Avs have been showing the Jets. Injuries forced his hand which may be a blessing in disguise but the Avs are playing like a Stanley Cup contender so it may be too much to overcome. What I know for sure is next year is our year. 🙂

April 30, 20241 yr comment_694125 I prefer to assume that they are done tonight. Set the bar low... it's a win / win for me. if they lose it's expected. If they win, I'll be happy for at least 24 hours.
April 30, 20241 yr comment_694126 I'm with you @captaincanuck12 I think I might just go to bed after Rex tonight, the last thing I want is to go to bed in a bad mood well I hope the people at the whiteout party brings umbrella's it's supposed to rain tonight (the snow that's been happening before a game hasn't been helping maybe a little rain instead?)

Oh that was Scheifele that got hit in the head by Morrissey. Right. Morrissey was the set up guy on the Ehlers shot to Little's head. When I see guys get hit in the head all I can think of is why would anyone want to be a goalie, taking shots to the head for a living? Edited April 30, 20241 yr by kelownabomberfan

Now in the cold hard world of wins and losses it means nothing, but he has been hung out to dry by his team this year. His only obvious gaffe was the puck misplay behind the net in game 2.

Now in the cold hard world of wins and losses it means nothing, but he has been hung out to dry by his team this year. His only obvious gaffe was the puck misplay behind the net in game 2. That third goal in game #3 where #13 scored on a pass across the crease on the powerplay, I watched that over and over again and still can't figure out what Helle is doing there. Instead of moving across with the puck he just flopped on the ice like a beached whale and gave #13 the whole net to shoot at. It was very strange. I honestly don't think he's playing his best right now, despite all the excusers out there saying its not his fault. I agree it's not ALL his fault, but I would pull him if I was Bones and roll with Brossy. What's Bones got to lose? He's probably done after this game either way, unless Brossy pulls it off.
April 30, 20241 yr comment_694131 Game 1, neither goalie was good. I can fault Helly for Game 2. That tying goal went right through his legs, then he gives up the game winner on a pizza. And then he can't stop Manson on a breakaway, when the puck goes through his legs again. That is on him. Games 3 and 4 in Denver, he's been hung out to dry. He shouldn't have be making 12 Grade A saves in the first 9 mins of a game. The team is not helping him in any stretch. But to blame the series solely on goaltending is flat out ridiculous. The whole team is bad right now.
April 30, 20241 yr comment_694135 Helle has let in the most goals this playoffs so far. He’s also made the most saves. The reality is the Avs could have hit double digits without Helle playing. Lots of games. All? After 5 minutes it’s 12 2 shots for Avs. Looks like Ehlers Scheifele Vilardi Connor Monahan Perfetti Nino Lowry apples Iafallo Gus Toffoli Josh Demelo samberg pionk miller Schmidt Edited April 30, 20241 yr by Goalie
April 30, 20241 yr comment_694141 You look at that lineup, only one physical line and our smallest defense ( without Dillion and Stanley) i guess Kupari is done here, too bad about Barron we could of used his size. We gotta go with the horses we have...Go Jets!
