FrostyWinnipeg Posted March 7, 2017 Report Posted March 7, 2017 (edited) Game Time : Wednesday 7 Game Story : After losing to a Stanley Cup finalist on Monday the Jets face a Stanley Cup finalist on Wednesday. Oh, and that POS Malkin is in our house. Did I say I hated fighting? Tragic Number : 25 Edited March 25, 2017 by FrostyWinnipeg Mark F 1
BomberBall Posted March 8, 2017 Report Posted March 8, 2017 What are the odds that someone looks for payback on Malkin? I see the Penguins are dressing Sestito (sp?) tonight. Coincidence? Thorburn plays again, while Petan sits.... again.

He's barely a tough guy in this league. Rarely fights and when he does its BS anyway. We dont have a guy that will take someone's head off for hurting one our players. Mark F, JCon and Goalie 3

I doubt they'll do anything now.

I, in no way, was implying Thorburn would do anything about the hit. I was bemoaning the fact the he is again playing, over Petan. Plus, If Thorburn is on the ice at the same time as Malkin, something has gone terribly wrong. I would like to see someone catch Malkin with his head down, but I don't expect anyone to 'jump' him. They need to focus on the 2 points.

The guys on the ice went after him, what else should have happened? It was late in a close game. Anything else would have been stupid. Wheeler should challenge him tonight if they want to do something about it. Goalie 1

The whole revenge thing is stupid and so is expecting that Thorburn, who's avoiding the tough-guy, fighter role will do anything now. Thorburn should be in the press box until his contract expires. But there seems to be an expectation around Winnipeg that the Jets are going to get rough with Malkin and the Pens tonight. If this Jets team is ACTUALLY worried about 'revenge' on the Pens, then they're not focused on their job. (I don't think the Jets are too worried about revenge on Malkin and the Pens tonight, BTW)
BomberBall Posted March 8, 2017 Report Posted March 8, 2017 Just to reiterate, nobody is expecting Thorburn to do anything.... about anything. I'm pretty sure about 99% of us don't even want him dressed... ever. IC Khari, Floyd, Jimmy Pop and 1 other 4

It's Wheelers choice for revenge.
Floyd Posted March 8, 2017 Report Posted March 8, 2017 Game Predictions: Sesito and thorburn have a meaningless fight at mid-ice about 4 minutes into the game... deflating whatever momentum either team had. Chiarot screens Helle for the winning goal. Maurice describes the game as 'real gritty' where 'we gave it all we had,Lowry especially'

iHeart Posted March 8, 2017 Report Posted March 8, 2017 yeah but even if it's clean or his head is down the refs will still try to find a reason to penalize the jets

iHeart Posted March 8, 2017 Report Posted March 8, 2017 maybe if we're lucky Buff will cause another pileup like he did on monday IC Khari 1

FrostyWinnipeg Posted March 8, 2017 Author Report Posted March 8, 2017 Buff will do time for any illegal hit now. Stu should do it.

Mark F Posted March 8, 2017 Report Posted March 8, 2017 I'd like to see him get creamed. Legal hit. But I doubt it'll happen.
FrostyWinnipeg Posted March 9, 2017 Author Report Posted March 9, 2017 (edited) 1st Period Backup anthem singer. Gotta like her ability to sing and gargle at same time. SNW announcer not Mr. Exciting. Jets lots of chances shorthanded but missing the net. We that bad on 2 on 1's? Yes. Wheeler gets his revenge! Funny how is helmet came off on his first punch. Then Thorburn gets into it. Not as much fun as the Wheeler fight. Edited March 9, 2017 by FrostyWinnipeg
iHeart Posted March 9, 2017 Report Posted March 9, 2017 I wish I had some popcorn with me for that fight but now wheels is in the box now
