I don't know if it's 100% official yet but it sounds like Ehlers will finally be back tonight. If he's truly ready to go and can play a full game, that should give the Jets offense a big lift.
Big Stan may be replaced with Capobianco, I've heard for some help on the PP, which ironically has been performing better of late. Well, whatever the reason, I think Capo does add a certain offensive finesse that could be an improvement over most of our remaining D-men.
Still waiting for Dubois and Connor to break out...they show flashes of what we know they're capable of occasionally but not often enough - IMO.
Lastly, Hellebuyck has to the be better goalie tonight for the first time in this series!
Hoping to go to bed happy tonight with Jets setting up the biggest Whiteout in a long time!

Hey Ric O: So far, as I write this, everywhere that I go to get news on Ehlers, he at this point is still a game time decision, it does look like Capo will get in over Stanley, Bowness feels that Capo’s Offense capabilities would help the Jets Team tonight. Agreeing with everything that you have said. Let’s get it going Jets, hopefully the Jets as a whole as a team have a stellar game tonight and get the win to bring the series back to Winnipeg for game 6😁👍! GO JETS GO, get the win👍!

Tampa Bay is showing the Jets how to win a game when down 3-1 in a series tonight....hope the Jets follow suit or our team will be the first one eliminated from the playoffs this season.
Hellebuyck has to be as good as Vasilevskiy is playing tonight to make it happen.
Go Jets!!!

Leafs loss and Jets win would make for a perfect night of hockey.

Sounds like Kessel and McNabb out...Carrier in for Kessel. Carrier a bit of a nasty SOB...probably would have been good to keep Stanley in, in that case.

Galley sounds pretty excited with the prospect of Jets being first team eliminated tonight.

Can't seem to be able to find the article again, but when I read it this morning it indicated that if the Bolts & Jets won tonight, it would result in every series going at least 6 games....a pretty rare thing, but can't recall the exact numbers.
**great thing for the NHLPA and their goal to erase the escrow as quickly as possible....likely to fall just short based on current projections.**

I suspect the first team to give up a soft goal will be going home sad.
