The forum was glitchy for me all last night again.....couldn't get it to load at all. Anyways, if you want to read my recap article or see the advanced stats/shot charts, click the link below: www.arcticicehockey.com/playoff-game-3-recap-jets-avalanche/Here is the Game Observation section: Two pretty good periods went to waste with the awful third period and now the Winnipeg Jets find themselves chasing the series with dwindling confidence. You aren’t going to win many games when you spend almost the entire 3rd period short-handed. On a positive note, the 2nd line of Nikolaj Ehlers, Sean Monahan, & Tyler Toffoli had the bounce back game they needed ( 72% of xG). In fact, the only Winnipeg forward unit that lost the expected goal battle at 5 on 5 was the Adam Lowry, Nino Niederreiter, & Mason Appleton trio and they barely fell short ( 49.4% xG). The Kyle Connor, Mark Scheifele, & Gabriel Vilardi unit was very good at creating offense ( 62% xG), while the 4th line of Vladislav Namestnikov, David Gustafsson, & Alex Iafallo did their part ( 57.2% xG). It was a better outing for Connor Hellebuyck for most of the game, but the 3rd period explosion ended up killing his stats ( .872%/-1.28 Goals Saved Above Average). Something is wrong with Josh Morrissey as his skating is far from the elite level he is capable of. His lack of foot speed is impacting Winnipeg at both ends of the ice, hindering clean zone exits on Colorado’s dump ins and limiting his ability to get involved offensively without risking getting caught up ice. Statistically, holding the powerful Colorado Avalanche offense to 2.01 expected goals at 5 on 5 was exactly what the Winnipeg Jets needed to have a chance to win. They also fixed the other side of the puck as well by doing well offensively at even strength with 3.16 expected goals. Unfortunately, the poor start to the 3rd period caused the Jets’ fragile psyche to shatter and they reverted to scramble mode after that. I admit I turned off the game before the whole melee at the end of the game, so not sure what that all involved other than the skate cut Brenden Dillon sustained to his hand. Will have to see if that means Logan Stanley or Colin Miller will get into Game 4….or maybe even Ville Heinola? I had issues as well with the site right from the get go, didn’t bother trying here for the game. 2b9

I don’t think we were that far away last night. Really bad one by Vilarde but it should have been buffered by the non call for tripping. Avs are not gods.

Play 60 full minutes, stay disciplined, stop allowing 40 shots against you. Tomorrow’s/Sunday afternoon game is a must win. 2b9😉😃👍 All good recommedations. But as to yesterday's game, I thought they were disciplined until the last 1/2 of the third . There were a few no calls on the AVs that could've neutralized them, that we should've had. But the refs ignored them. BOJA, it wasnt only Morrisey that had problems with exit passes. All the Dmen had issues.

However, 60 minutes of being disciplined is needed, look at what happened due to a period of time in that 3rd period where the Jets were not disciplined, it cost them the game. Cheers, 2b9😉😃👍

Starting to think that frauds out in the first round talk is all but true It's hard not to believe that. However I was watching the Preds Canucks game just prior to ours. That game looked like it was half the speed of our games. It's hard to compare but I think we would have acquitted ourselves with those 2 teams.

As per Coach Bowness, Brenden Dillon is listed as day to day/injury.
See Illegal Curve for the full article.
If Dillon does not play Tomorrow/Sunday’s afternoon game, guess we will see either Miller or Stanley take his spot, thinking that it will be Miller, don’t quote me on that😉.
Have a great Saturday night everyone🍻👍.
Cheers,
2b9😉😃👍

As some here may recall, I said that falling into the wildcard might have been not such a bad thing, had it happened. I though we matched up with the Canucks much better than with the Avs or Dallas, in terms of speed and talent. As it turns out, we probably got the worst 1st round matchup in the west. Colorado was waiting in the weeds, ready to kick it into gear. And boy, they are something to watch. McKinnon is unreal.

Best way to sum it up. Not frauds in terms of being a playoff team that could win a round or 2, given the right draw.
But frauds in the sense of not being a realistic cup contender. Join the club. There's a lot of those in the playoffs.

Still hard to imagine he could play hockey any time soon with that kind of injury to the hand, especially the game he plays, but he's a tough guy for sure! Then again, day to day time frame lines up pretty much with what's looking like is left of the Jets season...could be all over by Tuesday.
Hoping the Jets can somehow use the last minute melee last night as some kind of carry over to tomorrow afternoon.

Oh yeah and proboards sucks. Crashed twice during Jets playoff games, yeah that sucks! Wow was that frustrating last night, with the site and when I had so much steam to vent about the Jets play.
Been on proboards for about 20 years and have seen occasional glitches here as I have at other sites, but never seen the pb system have a lengthy system wide shutdown like this even once, let alone twice. I do expect in this day and age web glitches due to attacks, etc. will happen but I still have not seen an explanation from pb for what actually happened for either event. They just advised that they were working on it and eventually let us know they have it fixed - again.
Oh well, better luck for everything Jets tomorrow!
