I will say the management has built a very competitive entertaining regular season team. I genuinely enjoyed a majority of the games this season, especially during that final run at the end. When it's hockey played at regular season speed, the Jets are a top class team. But how do you solve this problem of dissolving so quickly and spectacularly in the playoffs? What's that secret sauce?

Those are the two options.

Right. Because LA sucks. Sure is an advantage to be in the Pacific division. This year anyway. Monahan looks like he's got a dozen eggs in his pants and doesn't want to break any.

Also helped that we were playing the Predators and not the Avalanche. Vancouver and Edmonton definitely have inferior opponents in Round 1 despite having worse records.

My math says 44 yrs....

If we get in again just forfeit...save all the high blood pressure, anger and feeling of futility....

Clearly you weren't around for 1.0 lol

It's times like these is why I have the Aug 3rd Bomber shellacking of the Lions on my PVR. So I can watch a team that actually gives a ****.

Yup. Time to mow the lawn. Bye bye.

Colorado VGK series is going to be interesting....

Stanley!!!! Argh

Tell Stanley to run that #13 prick....

Not touching that one...

Colorado needs to win this in 5 as they are running McKinnon far too hard. He's going to burn out by the third round if he's playing every second shift.

So how could we own Colorado all year and then suck this bad?

Jets don't seem to have a "playoff gear" like other teams do. Why? I don't know.

Toronto is done!

What bugs me the most when the Jets do their annual playoff fold is I always picture Bettman sitting in his crypt watching and going:

someone tell KConn that as it looks like he's already shining up the clubs....

sad to say I was in the same boat - somewhat excited for Game 1 and then after Game 2 and seeing the true colors come out again...I'm kind of meh about the entire playoffs now. Hate that in Round 2 I'll be forced once again to cheer for a Canadian team that isn't in Winnipeg. I just loathe the Canucks but I guess if they can make it to Round 3 I will have to back them...argh...but I honestly think of all the teams the Oilers have the best shot at least getting to round three, and I guess McDavid getting a cup isn't the worst thing in the world...

Toffoli needed to score on that breakaway...sigh... Kyle Connor looks like he's sleep walking out there tonight. Gives up the puck and then dogs it Dubois style back to the bench. What is going on there.

Apparently Georgiev had a failed suicide attempt after Game 1. He jumped in front of a bus and it went through his legs.

Preds now up 1-0 in the first period. New banner being minted momentarily in Nashville.
