while a Jets cruise-control victory in four would've been better, this Game 7 high drama thing isn't a bad consolation prize. Go Jets!

Man, this series is so weird. Didn't like what I saw last night, but last time the Preds red-rovered them, the Jets answered smartly the next game. Bring on Game 7, and go Jets!

Sea of Pee. You're killing it, TB4e.

Buckley's going to med school, per the article. Doesn't sound like sneaky roster management. Congrats to Buckley on his med school admission and all the best to him in his next act. Winning a couple Hec Creightons while doing pre-med in university, that's a pretty serious accomplishment, deserves respect.

Nice.

Nice to see Rinne stepping off ... he can't hack any Jets in half from the dressing room...

FIREWAGON HOCKEY!

Won't be surprised at any outcome, these teams are so evenly matched. Hope it's more firewagon hockey like we had in Games 2-3 and not the Red Rover trapfest we saw in Game 4.

Adams is another guy who might have some lessons to teach Simonise. When he came here he was just another physically gifted guy with hella upside ... a few years later, he's all side.

TSN.ca is all Raptors at the moment. They're the NBA broadcaster, so can't fault them for that .. be interesting to see how much of Coach's Corner is about Lamoriello tonight...

Yup, if this is a for-real thing I'll give him credit for that. The peaceful collapse of the Soviet Union was even bigger, tho I'm not a historian and can't really talk about how much credit Reagan/Bush should get for that.

Hail Bucky! #wintersoldier

Man, on that Tanev goal -- Little was playing like Andrew Harris, he broke three tackles there. Unbelieveable.

Beating the Sharks in the conference semis is basically a rite of passage for an NHL team. Sharks have been in 11 conference semis and have lost eight of them. They are really not good at this playoff thing.

Nashville! I hate Nashville. They are the source of the world supply of crappy assembly-line country music. Also their uniforms are goddamn hideous. They look like an entire husky team peed on the ice and then all the players dared each other to roll around in it before it froze. And then for good measure they rolled around in a big ashtray. Go Jets!

Oh this is rich, this is Kadri talking, from last month. https://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/ron-don-current-stanley-cup-playoffs-format-sucks/ The nerve of those rules-makers at the NHL head office, forcing the Leafs to play a quality opponent on the road during the playoffs!

My hate-read of the Toronto sports press tomorrow will not be as sweet as my hate-read back after they got eliminated in 2013, but it'll be plenty sweet. Thanks, Boston! Wonder if the Jets playoff coverage moves to CBC now? I ******* loathe the Leafs largely because of how the CBC forced them down our throats back in the bad old 2-channel days and so seeing the Jets play a non-Leafs team on the CBC will be extra sweet for me, I'm just petty that way.

Congratulations, Winnipeg!

there ya go

yeah, this year feels way different than the 90s Jets did. Back then at our very best we were a hard-luck bubble team who needed way more bounces than we ever got.

Morrissey probably needs to sit down for a game or two for that. League can't let a guy get away with cross-checking someone right in the ear.

No, if you watch that 3-parter all the way thru, Tabaracci is the game 7 goalie. Essensa only appeared in Game 5 that year.

GOOAALL! Listening on the radio while I'm finishing out the work day .... I love that Jacuzzi Hot Tubes of Manitoba and Vasectomy Manitoba are big radio sponsors.
