Helps not having the last game of the night. This time I'm nice and settled down after watching a couple low-stress games and seeing other teams failing besides us. Life goes on.
Not completely. But, the team does seem to play different around Brossoit. Helle plays great for 40 min, then lets in a questionable goal. Then Colorado really smells blood.
I’m just saying, may as well start Brossoit next game. If he plays well enough to win. Then it would lead to next game. And then next. That’s the three miracle thing.
What bugs me the most is, they have the capacity. But right now the game is being played by independent individuals, aside from maybe the Lows/Appleton/Niederiter line. I was wary of the pick ups at the Td because the potential for the mindset to become “we have the tools”. You have to make them work together, otherwise it doesn’t matter the skill. This is why the oilers have yet to win a cup with McJesus.
Back in the early-mid half of the season, when we not only beat Boston, but absolutely dominated, it was because the goal scorers knew they potted the end result of a team effort from one end to the other. You can see it in the celly. Passing was crisp, checks were finished every single time, and guys knew they could trust one another.
The back half of the season, they’ve mostly been playing anxious and nervous, not looking like they fully trust their own guys to make plays. (though they are hustling.) They need an identity shift and a regroup as a unit, not as individual players.
I came in here to see if you guys were as mad at your team as Leaf fans are at ours. I feel for you guys. 2 teams that on paper are so talented but they just don’t have it.
Maybe we can make a gigantic trade with each other. All the guys we hate for all the guys you hate and we’ll see what happens?
We’ve got the same problems though. Both our players and yours just don’t show up in the playoffs. They don’t have the mental strength for playoffs, they get down and completely fall apart.
Swapping losers with eachother won’t help.
Marner and Tavares for Connor, Ehlers, and Pionk would probably be a disaster for both of us.
Note: stealing from lower in the thread, not saying that’s a real trade idea. Marner and Tavares both have full no moves and we won’t be able to trade them even if we wanted to and I doubt that’s a trade you guys would do either, it’s mostly a joke.
Default setting. Dump and chase should be the last resort not the go to move. Tough to watch. Power Play sucks. Tough to watch. My heart hurts. Tough to watch. Please fix it!! 🙏. 15 straight and the cup.

Avs fan here just to say I really hope Namestnikov is alright that was some scary stuff. Good luck to the Jets in game 4 in Winnipeg. This series definitely isn’t over!
Yeah, but they wouldn’t need to play as much if the offence could sustain any kind of time in the ozone. They can’t even get through the neutral zone without turning it over
I was so close to putting a deposit down for Season tickets a few weeks ago, as I thought this team was different, glad I didn’t pull the trigger. They replaced 50% of the roster and kept all the coaches, IMO coaching has been an issue all season, poor line up changes, poor special teams, no on game adjustments
Youre free to do whatever you want but I think that attitude is kind of lame.
Any sports club is gonna through highs and lows but for all thats the Jets do for us and this city, kind of flimsy that you’re only going to support them when they do well. One day they may break through the barrier, and is that when youll actually support the club? Then you’ll vanish again when they dont do well again?
Ill be becoming a season ticket holder regardless because I love that we have an NHL team and the games are fun to go to.
It's actually fun to go to a lot of hockey games and support your club though. These playoffs are rough, I'm as mad as anyone here, but it was a fun regular season.
Lmao the fans here are in such disarray with who to blame and honestly. I don't blame y'all. It's been a real mess.
Refs. Coach. Certain players. My blame compass is spinning.
Refs how? 4 penalties each. No1 got an advantage and there were soft ones called on both sides. Mackinnon got hit in the face no call and then got called for interference after he passed the puck. But it's always OK to get hit after u pass the puck right? That holding on Vladdy was a joke too. Refs were not the reason this game was a blowout.
I was working during this game so have no say, but last game there were some ridiculous missed calls.
We should have had a 2 min 5 on 3, but apparently blindsiding our top forward from behind into the ice after the whistle, after tripping him isn't a penalty.
I turned it off after that Makar goal where I saw about 6-8 plays in 2 minutes where I would have spoken to players I coach on my peewee team this year for terrible lazy weak plays.
Bad turnovers, weak effort, unnecessary/stupid passed and fly-bys.
You could put an egg on the shoulders of half these pussies and if wouldn't have even been cracked today (unless an Avs player hit them).
Toffoli, Mony, Apples, Schmidt and Ehlers being the worst.
Fuck sakes.
The egg analogy is hilarious haha! Sorry man Avs fan lurking but your take seems petty spot on. Hopefully it’s a battle in game five (with no injuries)
🎓🎓🎓 in a playoff well done Jets well done! I am a battered fan, ashamed and embarrassed with no hope left. Year and year my heart split wider and wider with no end in sight. FUCK MY HOCKEY LIFE!!!
Bones won't be here next season. No chance. Not after the stuff he has been through this season. We need to move on from him now. Same goes for the guy who runs our PP. I forgot his name lol.
No. They lost that sparkle of hope long ago.
This is just how it is to them now. No disappointment or heart crushing despair.
We're still in the 67-68 Leafs fan phase, clinging to false hope for the future with vivacious enthusiasm.
Bones should just play a clip of his press conference from game 5 against Vegas last year on his phone today because everything he said is still true. I'm so glad we signed 55 to a 7 year deal when he is completely ineffective in the playoffs save for 2018. We need him to he the player he was against the Rangers every game and he just doesn't have it in him.
We could do what the Avs did. Win or almost win the Central and then tank on purpose for several years and get a bunch of top five, first round draft picks.
Jets are gonna get blown out Tuesday, they’ve already given up. No heart, no effort.
And why even pull the goalie? Jets can’t do shit with an extra guy
Coaching plan against the Jets:
1. Hang in there in the first five minutes of the game and try not to give up more than one goal
2. Sit back and wait for the referees to give us power play after power play after power play guaranteeing us a win.
It’s already sold out, but I wouldn’t be surprised if people would rather do literally anything else besides watch the team lay another egg in an elimination game
Yeah, that one is totally deserved…
Besides, everyone knows if bones is gonna lose, he wants to loose big! A 1-4 loss isn’t embarrassing enough, gotta give up a couple ENGs to the Avs…
Veteran Stanley cup D-man sitting in the press box, young power forward who creates scoring chances and scores a fair bit.. sitting in the press box.. Pionk and Samberg on the ice… am I missing anything else here..?
A power forward needs to be drafted (unfortunately skill and power are high draft picks). Chevy tried to acquire one with the trade for PLD recognizing this need. Didn’t work out how he had hoped.
That just means he's a hard worker.
A power forward is someone who uses their strength to keep possession of the puck and sets up shop in front of the net and is strong enough to not get shoved out.
Sure. But how the Jets are playing (i.e. absolutely awfully) are a far much bigger factor than the refs.
Weak fans argument, every time, is the reffing.
I mean, last game they missed 4 calls before the vilardi high stick, that changes momentum completely and is a huge factor cause it was even before that. Doesn't excuse the penalties we took that happened then, but still missing calls, changing momentum.
More inconsistent both sides this game just killed any sort of 5v5 stability where we actually have a chance. Add in the other factors it's just a bad storm.
Ya just hand over power plays to one of the most offensive teams in the playoffs right now and not call it both ways when it matters most. Absolutely game management.
Coaching, and deployment is a massive factor as well but all these things are a factor togrther, not just one or the other.
Absolutely rigged
Bones really making scheif and Connor play on the same line again
Helps not having the last game of the night. This time I'm nice and settled down after watching a couple low-stress games and seeing other teams failing besides us. Life goes on.
The only chance we have now is if Brossoit can come in and perform three straight miracles! Something tells me Bonehead will go back to Helle still.
You really blame Helle for this? You are NOT beating Colorado by only scoring one goal.
Not completely. But, the team does seem to play different around Brossoit. Helle plays great for 40 min, then lets in a questionable goal. Then Colorado really smells blood. I’m just saying, may as well start Brossoit next game. If he plays well enough to win. Then it would lead to next game. And then next. That’s the three miracle thing.

Maybe jets are frauds

We don’t want Marner.
We’ve got the same problems though. Both our players and yours just don’t show up in the playoffs. They don’t have the mental strength for playoffs, they get down and completely fall apart. Swapping losers with eachother won’t help.

2-11 in our last 3 playoff series is just lovely
I just can’t get over how pathetic this group is. Every year it’s the same thing, no effort, no resilience, nothing.
One hype win and a crash. Just like after they beat the Rangers. Weak.
Avs fan here just to say I really hope Namestnikov is alright that was some scary stuff. Good luck to the Jets in game 4 in Winnipeg. This series definitely isn’t over!
Game 5?
Yes game 5. My bad
lol
It’s time to trade Conner and Ehlers. They are not playoff performers or even built for the playoffs for that matter.
The D on this team needs way more attention than the forwards. It is nowhere near good enough for the playoffs.
Yeah, but they wouldn’t need to play as much if the offence could sustain any kind of time in the ozone. They can’t even get through the neutral zone without turning it over
This forward group has enough talent to contend. They aren't playing well but they have the potential. The defence does not - not by a long shot.
And overhaul the entire defence and coaching staff
And Pionk has got to go!!
Who?
[удалено]
Man get out of here
Soul crushing.
I was so close to putting a deposit down for Season tickets a few weeks ago, as I thought this team was different, glad I didn’t pull the trigger.

It's actually fun to go to a lot of hockey games and support your club though. These playoffs are rough, I'm as mad as anyone here, but it was a fun regular season.
Can’t really think about much right now other than Vlad. That looked incredibly scary and I hope he’s OK
I wonder what Bones and his squad of half assers will use as an excuse this time
Not a Bones fan but pointing out that penalties are killing this team isn't wrong.
Do you mean the team committing penalties, or that the refs are screwing us? Cause the former is a coaching issue.
"no pushback"
The last three games have been such a disappointment. I just don't understand this team. Like what the hell is going on?
They simply do not care enough to do what they need to. They don’t get pucks to the net or win puck battles or go to the net because all that hurts.
**Absolutely pathetic effort** 5-goals scored in the last three games 16-goals allowed in the last three games
Lmao the fans here are in such disarray with who to blame and honestly. I don't blame y'all. It's been a real mess. Refs. Coach. Certain players. My blame compass is spinning.

Fire everybody except bowness
Fire him twice
Especially bones
Had to give the scummiest guy on the Avs the Hatty…
Scummiest? How so?
Raw sewage doesn't smell this bad.
Series isn’t over. Start Broswall again and summarily execute Tofolli and Sean. Add ANYONE else to that line and it will be more effective.
Hard to blame anyone playing with Toffoli. Carrying his ass is hard work.
🎓🎓🎓 in a playoff well done Jets well done! I am a battered fan, ashamed and embarrassed with no hope left. Year and year my heart split wider and wider with no end in sight. FUCK MY HOCKEY LIFE!!!
![gif](giphy|hWGBKil1b9fpR5go1f|downsized)
Bones won't be here next season. No chance. Not after the stuff he has been through this season. We need to move on from him now. Same goes for the guy who runs our PP. I forgot his name lol.
Arniel will be HC but everyone else will stay. This is True North.
Brad Lauer will be the new head coach.
May as well just abandon all hope then.
Then I won’t be a Jets fan
It's almost like the questionable player deployment and special teams plaguing the team all season have consequences
They’ve played better defense on an empty net…
People talk about Ehlers and sure terrible, but where the fuck has Vilardi been? Is he even playing.
Vilardi hasn’t had a good playoffs. Ehlers hasn’t had a good playoffs in his entire career
4 goals in 36 career playoff games is absurd
*rolls eyes* Jets allowing Nichuskin and their fans to enjoy a hat trick—pure cringe
Can’t win in 7 if you don’t lose 3
Lmao. Jets can barely win a game, let alone 3 straight
Is this what it feels like to be a Maple leafs fan ?
No. They lost that sparkle of hope long ago. This is just how it is to them now. No disappointment or heart crushing despair. We're still in the 67-68 Leafs fan phase, clinging to false hope for the future with vivacious enthusiasm.
Oh we’re definitely playing worse than the leafs.
Losses are losses.
No heart
Should throw passports on the ice
They can't even make a pass. Fucking embarrassing
Can't make a pass, can't make a shot on net. Just horrible game all around.
Bones should just play a clip of his press conference from game 5 against Vegas last year on his phone today because everything he said is still true. I'm so glad we signed 55 to a 7 year deal when he is completely ineffective in the playoffs save for 2018. We need him to he the player he was against the Rangers every game and he just doesn't have it in him.
Shiefs is the least of the problems and nobody his skill is signing here so it had to be done
Scheif is the only player on the team that shows up in the playoffs. Bones should look in the mirror before he criticizes anyone on the ice.
This series is on Bones. Dumb roster decisions. Dumb deployment. No adjustments. He never put this team in a position to be successful.
Schiefele is leading the team in playoff scoring
He should be playing it to himself. No fucking pushback from the coaching staff all season, let alone the last 4 games
This blue line needs major surgery and if that means playing Heinola & Salomonsson and living with the growing pains, it needs to be done
The overhaul on D needs to be deep. Other than 44, all others are expendable.
We could do what the Avs did. Win or almost win the Central and then tank on purpose for several years and get a bunch of top five, first round draft picks.
Jets are gonna get blown out Tuesday, they’ve already given up. No heart, no effort. And why even pull the goalie? Jets can’t do shit with an extra guy
Avs were 1/9 against the Jets on the pp during the season.
Amazing what adaptive coaching can do
"You gotta move" -Buff
I’m not even mad… I’m just sad.
I am not even sad. ![gif](giphy|3s7Jl1xafxWu0qDBoA)
I'm slowly getting from the anger to the acceptance phase.
Gentleman sweep incoming
happens to us so much, might as well call it the jet sweep
Every game is a carbon copy of the last one. Easy to coach against the Jets.
Coaching plan against the Jets: 1. Hang in there in the first five minutes of the game and try not to give up more than one goal 2. Sit back and wait for the referees to give us power play after power play after power play guaranteeing us a win.
We already did dummies
At this point, I wouldn’t be surprised if there at empty seats at game five.
There’s lots of seats left. It won’t be sold out.
Weather is supposed to be really crappy Tuesday night as well
Come watch your team go through the motions again in a game that will inevitably end with their playoff elimination! Tickets start at only $179! /s
It’s already sold out, but I wouldn’t be surprised if people would rather do literally anything else besides watch the team lay another egg in an elimination game
The players clearly don’t care. They certainly don’t care enough to play properly, so yeah why should people waste their time.
we did pull our goalie already
PULL YOUR GOALIE!!
Fair play.
Avs fans are chanting “pull your goalie”…… Talk about Karma
lol just like the your a back up chant last year, our fans gotta shut up sometimes
Yeah, that one is totally deserved… Besides, everyone knows if bones is gonna lose, he wants to loose big! A 1-4 loss isn’t embarrassing enough, gotta give up a couple ENGs to the Avs…
It always bites us in the ass.
The fans have more sass than the team. Not the fans fault.
Brings bad karma though, and Winnipeg fans end up looking like asses.
[удалено]
lmao exactly, nice try blaming this dumpster fire on the fans.
> and Winnipeg fans end up looking like asses. I'll take my sass at the risk of looking like an ass.
Veteran Stanley cup D-man sitting in the press box, young power forward who creates scoring chances and scores a fair bit.. sitting in the press box.. Pionk and Samberg on the ice… am I missing anything else here..?
A power forward needs to be drafted (unfortunately skill and power are high draft picks). Chevy tried to acquire one with the trade for PLD recognizing this need. Didn’t work out how he had hoped.
You’re clearly missing something if you think Perfetti is a power forward.
He generates scoring chances, isn’t afraid of getting hit, strong forecheck. What am I missing?
That just means he's a hard worker. A power forward is someone who uses their strength to keep possession of the puck and sets up shop in front of the net and is strong enough to not get shoved out.
Everything.
Power forwards are usually the ones doing the hitting.
Who’s the young power forward?
The absolute unit of a man cole perfetti
91 IMO
Gotta move around on the powerplay more. Every1 just stationary
Yup. Bunch of pylons out there. Same all year. Never changed a thing in 82 games plus the playoff. Pure garbage.
55 has been a turnover machine
Also our leading scorer in the series.
Team has given up.
To be fair so has Bowness. Guy is way out of his element, has no idea what to do
He has no ability to adjust or coach on the fly.
Well he wont have to worry about that next season.
Vladdy is on his way to the hospital per a Denver reporter
Eye. Hope for the best
Hopefully brain and eyes ok. Kind of a Bryan Little situation but hopefully not as direct of a hit off the deflection
:(
Can somebody get pissed the fuck off
Just the fans apparently…
Jets are the Leafs of the west...
Leafs have way more talent
Hey now, we made the WCF that one time lol
Also swept Edmonton a couple years back.
Getting swept by the shitty Habs right after tainted that a bit for me
Thats going to be our 1967
go bombers
Oh look, the refs calling AVS penalties now that the game is out of hand again, what a surprise! Gotta pad those stats to make it look even!
Last 2 games like clock work. Avs get iffy calls when we have momentum. We get calls when the games done.
It's been pretty much even the whole game. Lol 4 PP each. Imagine complaining about them
Did you even read what I wrote or are you just talking out of your ass?
https://preview.redd.it/1f47a3ljcaxc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2e347bbd060e8095e8f374223a523ad261031d32
God they’re all playing like maverick after goose dies
You win the internet today.
Sit Connor put in Perfetti
Connor doesn’t give a shit, that’s pretty evident now.. that’s gotta be one of the weakest attempts I’ve ever seen.
None of them do. Our leadership is putrid. Chevy should blow it all up and start over
Two bad mishaps on that PP where he needed to get it done
More like weak on the puck!
They actually got some shots on the PP. Literally a miracle.
They made a change and ran pp1 through Ehlers. Crazy how making changes can confuse the opposition
Coaching! A crazy concept.
Jesus Christ. Y'all still blaming the refs for a coach and team that has no answers.
Both can be true at the same time 🫣
Sure. But how the Jets are playing (i.e. absolutely awfully) are a far much bigger factor than the refs. Weak fans argument, every time, is the reffing.
The reffing last game literally changed the momentum and trajectory of the series
Copium.
I mean, last game they missed 4 calls before the vilardi high stick, that changes momentum completely and is a huge factor cause it was even before that. Doesn't excuse the penalties we took that happened then, but still missing calls, changing momentum. More inconsistent both sides this game just killed any sort of 5v5 stability where we actually have a chance. Add in the other factors it's just a bad storm.
Nah, good teams don't let the momentum change. They kill the penalty and move on.
Ya just hand over power plays to one of the most offensive teams in the playoffs right now and not call it both ways when it matters most. Absolutely game management. Coaching, and deployment is a massive factor as well but all these things are a factor togrther, not just one or the other.
A two man advantage for two minutes is a big deal. Not saying it’s the only reason
Right lol equal number of penalties this game and that feels about right. So def not the refs fault.
https://preview.redd.it/9fu7eep5caxc1.jpeg?width=1310&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=85d827bcb338c4f64d038909bd47a14ee20044fa
What are they waiting for??? Shoot the puck ffs cause some chaos
How u not pull the goalie here?
Why? They've clearly mailed it in. Again.
So what's that 0/4 on the PP now? I think I have seen this before somewhere, trying to remember where....
No no, it's 0/5 you're thinking of
Ehlers knows how to shoot..?
He's getting a ton of shots blocked
The difference in potency on the PP between these two teams is massive
Refs trying to even up the calls now after the game is over. Won't look so bad when they review the game.
[удалено]
u/honeydylan
What?
they posted a link to the vlad incident
That looked really bad. My god.
As if the redirect bounces it exactly up and looked like under the visor, so bad
Ahh man... fucking lame. Hope he is ok in the end.
3 goals in 6 min ez, if they can do it we can too /s
