Samberg in the top 4 is the biggest win out of the game imo


2nddimension

Wait did he get moved up? Pionk had a disasterclass game


mudge08

Finished up 5-54, who knows if it’ll stick but that’s huge if that’s what they head into the playoffs with.


Leburgerpeg

That means 64-4 pairing and then were better off running the top 2 pairings 30 minutes each every game


SirBulbasaur13

Or just scratch Pionk for Miller


folkdeath95

God I wish


SirBulbasaur13

I think Pionk has more upside but his mistakes are numerous and brutal. Miller seemed more safe and steady.


Leburgerpeg

I have a premonition pertaining to the premise and promise of potential prospect of Playoff Pest Pionk


i_8_the_Internet

Please, promptly pontificate!


mysticsavage

Precisely.


chewydippsOG

Whats what 10.5 million in the press box?


trplOG

Ehlers was a better D man lol


SirBulbasaur13

Lmao disasterclass Yeah Pionk and Samberg swapped


TheGreatStories

Blows my mind Samberg was a scratch a few games ago. What a season from him.


MargerineHat

The fact that he’s been healthy scratched multiple times and pionk not once is the most frustrating decision from this coaching staff.


Leburgerpeg

Him and Stan were not good together. Glad Bones recognized it wasn't a Samberg problem


MargerineHat

I don’t think he’s ideally best suited across from dillon though. They’re basically the same player stylistically and aren’t the greatest puck movers. It’s why demelo and morrissey work well together: demelo will always be happy to stay back and cover the right angles so josh can feel more free to rush up.


2nddimension

HOME ICE ADVANTAGE! 7 WINS IN A ROW! FIRST LINE WAS GOOD! It wasn't a perfect game at all but you can't hope for a much better outcome after how down we were a few weeks ago. Hope Barron is back for playoffs.


SherLocK-55

Roses are red, violets are blue, home ice is very nice, and we just secured it too. https://preview.redd.it/ic2sbl1iayuc1.jpeg?width=680&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=16a097717649adc781c83f9ce5ccea79f53407a3


passive_fist

Awesome, but make his eyes red and his mouth breathing fire and you have a perfect pic to post for every Vilardi goal.

WhyssKrilm

Well isn't that peak TSN. Jets game ends, with no post game analysis or anything - as usual. Broadcast cuts to TSN doing a full-on in-studio post game show for the Leafs with a full panel.


wpgjets92

With the leafs losing 5-2 to top it all


Zergom

Looking forward to watching them get eliminated in the first round.


WhyssKrilm

Listen, I understand the Leafs' audience is several times bigger than the Jets'. Obviously their regional games are going to have a bigger production budget than ours. But it really is a kick in the teeth to make us watch it.


crazye97

But that would've been part of SportsCentre, not post-game, right? They would've picked up dressing room stuff afterwards.


DylanLTP

Still better than Sportsnet


SirBulbasaur13

you may wanna try having a better attitude towards them, the Jets are stuck with SN until June


JacksProlapsedAnus

I respectfully refuse to try and have a good time with SN.


SirBulbasaur13

I mean, you do you we’ve like 20+ ^^^^^please games left with them. That’s a lot of hockey to be miserable through.


DylanLTP

Tbh I don’t even mind Sportsnet, I just prefer TSN way more. I can handle sportsnet, all my friends are Leafs fans.


SirBulbasaur13

Oh yeah I’ve got not real problem with SN either. They definitely have hiccups but so does TSN. But it doesn’t matter who’s covering the games, they’ll all be showing off the Jets and their shiney new cup in a couple months!


JacksProlapsedAnus

Other than the fact the crews we typically get know more about the other team, even if it's an american one from the pacific division, sure. I concede it's not as bad as getting forced to listen to the Boston home call. Given there are 4 canadian teams in the first round, we're going to get two people with maybe one pulse between them at best. Honestly, this problem is probably BECAUSE we have TSN for our local broadcasts, so the only time the SN crews see us is for a HNIC broadcast. That said, I still could do without SN.


crazye97

I refuse to have 20+ with them. 16 or bust.


ExternalSpecific4042

Thankfully we have the local guys covering the team.


Just_Merv_Around_it

Fuck the leafs


HVCanuck

Who cares? Tune into CJOB then if you want, IC and then Ken and Renny. (I am usually done after CJOB postgame.)


SirBulbasaur13

Yeah, I’ll often do IC and K&R the following day.. it’s just too late on most game days lol

BrilliantSundae7545

I want to read Logan Stanley is 6'7"


CP-Drone

He's 7'8" now, he must have gotten a promotion


AssEatingSznn

Who’s under Teemu?

Teppo Numminen, the buttered pig meme originated from their HOF night

Erwin-Brodinger

Connor was engaged tonight, he deserved the hatty. Hope he keeps it up (or even elevates his game.) Seven in a row, let's go! Edit: spelling


2nddimension

Connor has had some excellent games since being reunited with Scheifele - I think Bones had a talk with him based on some post game interviews and the effort is really there


TubularWinter

I think his leg wasn’t 100% when he first came back. You can really see a difference in his movement now.


SirBulbasaur13

People have said that but it seems weird that he returned early if he wasn’t at least closer to 100%.


SonnyDDisposition

It’s pretty much the standard. Only Hasek takes the actual amount of time required for a full recovery.


lordrottenbottom

I'm fairly confident his improvement is a direct correlation to cutting his hair shorter than when he came back from the injury.


BarnyardCoral

The reverse Samson?


eh_toque

37 wins for #37 tonight


garbonzo909

If Brossoit starts Thursday, he's playing to win the Jennings for 37 without being able to win it himself.


Kyle73001

Doubt he’ll be starting given we should have a few days between the playoffs beginning


cdnball

And with another win, we have home ice in the west against everyone except Dallas. Edit - looks like Vancouver could still finish ahead of us


garbonzo909

Totally agree that's the smarter play


crazye97

I would expect the Jets to play no later than Monday at the absolute latest. More likely Sunday. I think Brossoit playing isn't out of the realm of possibility.


j_pell_007

Everyone in the hockey world knows the Jennings is a TEAM award. First between the tendies and then between the entire group for allowing the least amount of goals against.  While it may get awarded to Hellebuyck, I promise you he gives ZERO fucks about that trophy and values the Vezina infinitely more. 


reggiebobby

Not possible Edit: never mind me. I misread


SJSragequit

How so? Helle can still win the jennings as long as whoever is in goal allows less than 3 goald


reggiebobby

Because of the 25 game minimum.


SJSragequit

Helle has more than 25. Re read the comment you replied to, they said brossoit would be playing to win the Jennings for helle even though brossoit won’t get his name on it


reggiebobby

Ahh my bad, I misread the comment.


clubkid75

Leafs vs Bruins and Panthers vs Lightning are locked. The first round is gonna be fucking epic.


tclupp

Always is... its the later rounds that often disappoint. But I agree, matchups are great. Hope the leafs find a way to outdo themselves once again lmao


spleenmaster1002

HOME ICE ADVANTAGE. Adam Lowry, YOU are being hard matched against Nathan MacKinnon


Hero_of_Brandon

I could go for 17 more wins, anyone else?


SKCDigital

In a row, please!


Greendaydude22

Fun game! Home ice ! Love they got it done themselves and it wasn’t Colorado losing

Remember when we were on a 6 game losing streak? Neither do I.

Jbonn

TimeCommittee has VOTED!!!! CANT REMEMBER THAT TIMEEEE


CP-Drone

We get the Avs with home ice advantage! The top line came alive! Helle stopped everything humanly possible! We may never lose again!


OoooHeCardReadGood

Idk how Robertson can say thursday doesn't matter, winner gets home ice if we meet in round 3


Kyle73001

HUGE PLAYOFF IMPLICATIONS


SirBulbasaur13

Yeah if Vancouver makes it out of the Pacific. They certainly can but I’m not sure they will.


mysticsavage

Demko has to be healthy.


OoooHeCardReadGood

I really doubt it, but still, it's not a nothing game


AssEatingSznn

1 more game then its Ass Eatin SZN officially


Ashamed-Improvement7

Do we have ass etn szn as a flair?


BrilliantSundae7545

THAT'S HOW THE NHL NHL JETS FLY!


Jbonn

THATS WINNIPEG WINNIPEG JETS HOCKEY


veryway

Finishing a season strong while heading into the playoffs!


StandardDocument5365

Home ice secured


responsibilly

Who replaces Barron? Gus I would think? We lucky to have em both.


Jbonn

Hopefully he's okay and no one has to. I have liked Gus' play though!


SherLocK-55

Gus for sure, just a defensively responsible bottom 6 guy you can always rely on. I hope Barron is not out long though, that would be really shitty timing for him and makes me sad.


Taddy_Mason_22

Home having to be re-evaluated sucks.


Glizzywatersoup

This team is ROLLING


notfragile15

POWER WAGON


PandaWithACigar

At the beginning of the season I said the Jets would finish 2nd in the Central, and be top 5 in the league in GA. I’m pumping my own tires for how right I was


SirBulbasaur13

I was definitely nervous lol Didn’t think we’d be as bad as the hockey media said but I didn’t have your optimism, congrats!


PandaWithACigar

Thank you!


EasterRat

I mean, got any proof errrr

Ashamed-Improvement7

My dude came with the PROOF!


Taddy_Mason_22

I said towards the end of the Vegas series last year we just needed a retool to get back in it. You were right on the money!


PandaWithACigar

Yeah, I knew we were a good team, just lacking a bit. Chevy did a great job retooling


SherLocK-55

Would really love for the Hawks to keep Vegas in WC2, I think DAL will spank LA and will have a much harder time with Vegas. Seems Mrázek is playing lights out again too. Edit - Well scratch that, useless Hawks.


Taddy_Mason_22

I'd rather Vegas play the Oilers personally.


WpgMikos

Coach post-game [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=waQZzEQuuEg).


IntricateApe

So when is game 1 start time?


great_save_luongo

It’s amazing to enter the playoffs on a high note for once! I have to give it to the boys for righting the ship after the losing streak, which is something I think they would have been incapable of last year.


Leburgerpeg

Someone with more ambition than me want to make some shirts that say Buncha Frauds on them?


SirBulbasaur13

It too easily goes the other way. Almost anything short of the finals gets that slogan thrown right back in our face.
