Round 1 : Game 1 - Wild


Recommended Posts

Practice for #NHLJets leading into Game 1 vs #mnwild:

Connor-Scheifele-Wheeler
Ehlers-Stastny-Laine
Perreault-Little-Armia
Copp-Lowry-Tanev

Morrissey-Trouba
Morrow-Byfuglien
Chiarot-Myers

Hellebuyck
Mason
 

Who would have ever thought the Jets would field a strong lineup like that...

With a 'fifth line' of Matthias-Hendricks-Roslovic

Sixth line of 'Dano-Petan-Lemieux'

Or that not getting Brassard would be considered 'dodging a bullet'...

Dano was actually paired with Poolman today as the extra D pair

Yep....what a depth chart alright!!

If we HAVE to be picky... and I've liked Morrow thus far.... but D is a tad thin.  But that's being really picky.  

I suspect if we go far, we'll see Tobias Funke Enstrom in over Morrow.   Poolman seems competent enough to be our 7/8 guy.  

Impressive lineup.

Fun fact: this is the first playoff series in NHL history between a Winnipeg team and Minnesota team.

and the next series will be the first series in history between a Winnipeg team and Tennessee team.  And the one after that...oh wait we've got California off our list....

There's a weekly hockey radio show kfan minneapolis, listened a little the other day.... they seemed concerned that the Jets are too big, tough for the Wild. Pat Micheleti Brenden Mileski, good show.

Surprised me that that seemed to be their top concern, but I missed a lot of the program.

So who is the Wild going to pick to try to get under the skin of Laine?

I pick Tanev and Buff as our agitators. 

Charlie Coyle would be the guy I'd be watching my back for. 

Maybe Foligno or Winnik... but I can't see them keeping up with Thorburn, let alone our current FW group.

I think Toby will be back for game 2 or 3 so yeah... Our depth is pretty solid and Morrow and Chiarot have played well. 

I'm ok with him going in during game 4 of the Stanley Cup finals and we're up 3-0 in the series and up 8-0 with five minutes left in the third.
