Series Thread: First Round - Winnipeg Jets vs. St. Louis Blues

That was pretty smooth by Rob Thomas.

Reason number 2698 why this is such a stupid league.

Today is the first day of the playoffs. There are only two games. The league schedulers in their wisdom are starting one game at 5 PM central and the other at 7:30 central.

Both are in the central time zone. Couldn’t find a team in the east to play today?

I don’t recall the last time a hockey game finished in 2 1/2 hours, so I fully expect either the late game will be delayed or we will have to miss the start of it. Heaven help us if Winnipeg/St. Louis goes to overtime.

Just plain dumb.

As a fellow hockey fan of similar vintage, I wouldn't change a word in the above post

Scheifele ties it on the PP (actually a Ryan Suter own goal). Isn't there a seniors league in St. Louis that Suter should be playing in?

This will be the only time I cheer for a guy named Barron.

Come on, back in the 70s you were a big fan of Baron von Raschke

Tied again. Pretty good first period.

This is reminiscent of Winnipeg‘s first round opener last year.

Lol not a happy house here....already talks of "win the President's trophy and out in the first round!"

Kyle Connor gives the Jets the lead late.

Lowry with insurance and the Jets should take Game 1.

I still hold out hope that Zach Werenski will talk him into wanting to get traded here. But I kinda need Winnipeg to crash out and want to make drastic changes. I love his game.

Not good enough to make the US Four Nations team roster for the gold medal game though.

Still fraudulent I believe

Happier now?

Lol suddenly all was right in the world

Lots of hitting in this one tonight. I am hoping the Blues get a win to even it up.
