Taynted_Fayth Posted April 18, 2018 Report Posted April 18, 2018 i was too young to remember the jets winning a round 1 the first time(s) around (I'd have been 2 -4 in 84-85 and 85-86 so this will be new territory for me. Better believe imma be downtown drunk AF on Fri to bask in the moment. Now if The Avs can do the unthinkable and upset... Holy **** would I ever love seeing a Jets/Avs more so then the preds. I think a series with Nashville win or lose is gonna be a grinder that may leave either team kinda winded and wounded heading into the west final vs Vegas or SJ. Dont think I watched all the Preds/Jets games but werent they usually like 5-4 type games? I guess to be the best you gotta beat the best but I'm also a fan of upsets when it benefits our team. and an easy round 2 series would bode well for the big picture Atomic 1

The Unknown Poster Posted April 18, 2018 Report Posted April 18, 2018 You’d think morrissey was a wild player by how badly Winnipeg media seems to want him suspended. Is that the biggest story coming out of the game? Brandon 1
sweep the leg Posted April 18, 2018 Report Posted April 18, 2018 Staal shouldn't have had his head there if he didn't want it to get hit. Atomic, blue_gold_84 and bearpants 1 2
sweep the leg Posted April 18, 2018 Report Posted April 18, 2018 It's tough to say if it will result in a suspension. It was pretty ugly and definitely deserved a major. I think the league takes intent into account, and I believe Morrissey when he said he didn't mean to do it. blue_gold_84 1

My only thought is, if the NHL feels there has been enough bad plays this playoffs and decides today is the day to crack down. But looking at intent and the history of the player, to take him out of a critical playoff game would be a really bold decision by the NHL. And they dont usually make bold decisions. Fingers crossed.

If you compare it to Subban punching Mackinnon in the back of the head and receiving no punishment, then Morrissey doesn't deserve a suspension. If you compare it to Doughty going for a clean hit and glancing the Vegas guy's head and getting a suspension, then Morrissey deserves a suspension. To me, it was just so ugly and there was no call on the ice, so it should be a one-gamer. But don't get me wrong I'd love to see him get off without a suspension. sweep the leg 1

I think Subban's play was way dirtier. Morrissey's looked like an accident. There' no hiding the intent of a forearm shot to the back of the head.

kelownabomberfan Posted April 18, 2018 Report Posted April 18, 2018 You could tell the Jets were going to win that game from almost the get-go. The Wild weren't playing with nearly the same intensity. No gooning it up, hardly hitting anyone, totally different style of play. They let the Jets play their game. I don't know what changed, but the Wild already look like a team defeated. Was losing Parise that much of a factor? I don't know but that was a totally different team than we saw on Sunday. No fire whatsoever.

HardCoreBlue Posted April 18, 2018 Report Posted April 18, 2018 Trouba was one big hot mess last night. Something seems off with him. Helle save on Dumba was spectacular. The more I see Stastny play the more I like him. I wish Blake Wheeler would shoot more. I loved the adjustment in putting Buff up front on the power play. Hope they continue that. bustamente 1

He was definitely struggling earlier in the game but then got stronger as the game went on. He seemed to be on a lot cold medicine on this first few shifts as he seemed completely dazed and confused.

I bet his ankle is taped to hell and he's on a ton of pain meds... he makes some scary plays out there Might be tough for our 4th best defenceman to hold out for $8 million a season...

He was trying to fire up the crowd, I didn't have a problem with it. I'd trade him for Nattress in a heartbeat. HardCoreBlue 1
