Blues tried to destroy the jets physically 

Stars appear to want to play a more skilled game. But was getting chippy out there. Not as intense as game 1 vs Blues tho.

It's all about the PP. Jets have to be at least 1/4 last night. If they don't find a PP, they don't win the series.

Yup. And their PK has to be better.

Vilardi's patented move was well defended last night. Stars were really good with their sticks in lanes last night.

Good quite from Arniel saying that last night they didn't play like a playoff game. Said it was more like Game 45 in December. Spot on. Zero intensity.

The good news from their lack of intensity was they were still in the game so ratchet up their intensity and good things will happen.

I half expected a lull after an exciting game 7 but outside the first 10 minutes and then rantannen in the 2nd for 5 minutes, jets were the better team. Deserved a better fate in my opinion. Thought the PP was fine, had lots of chances, oettinger was good tho. Some times you can be beaten In hockey by 1 or 2 guys, that’s what happened really. Rantannen and Oettinger was the difference. Honestly. Rantannen was cuz if he’s hurt we win 2 0.
