I've been feeling rather down about hockey in these last few days but the world goes on and the suns still rises and sets.
On the NHL site I noticed this article:
The depth of the jets is unheralded in this day and age of the NHL. The Farm team plays on the same ice.. and just watch what comes up if someone goes down.( god Forbid) Im not religious but Lord Stanley has blessed these jets. I could leave this here but no, Im an ass. Winnipeg is almost half the size of the metropolitan areas of the other teams and look what happens. Im talking white out on the landing strip ( Donald Ave at minus 5 celsius )...The staff has put together talent that is unparalleled. The names that you hear will resound for years and maybe forever.. I may be drunk on Jets and not perfect. But the Jets are...Go Jets Go !!!!!!!
Sorry you wanted a prediction ..JETS WIN THE CUP !!!!!!!!

HOT DAMN!!!! Vegas Golden Knights 4 to 0 over San Jose in the first period!!!
And ended 7-0. There's a statement game if there ever was one.
Well round 2 has begun.
Winnipeg vs Nashville
San Jose vs Vegas
Pittsburgh vs Washington
Boston vs Tampa Bay
Round 1 results weren't too shocking though Toronto made the battle with Boston quite interesting and it looked like they were going to upset them. Would have been nice to see 2 Canadian based teams advance at least to round 2.
Go Winnipeg, go Tampa Bay... the others I don't care who wins.
Outshot 20-4 the Jets still manage to take a 1-0 lead over Nashville heading into the 2nd period.........
GO JETS!!
32 to 9 shots on goal for Predators, and the Jets lead 2 - 0
3 - 0
Shots are now 36-16 at the end of the 2nd period and the Jets are ahead 3-0....
The Jets win game 1 with a score of 4-1, The Preds outshot the Jets 48-19 and went 0/3 while on the PP, the Jets were perfect on their PPs going 0/0!
GO JETS!!
