Crosby’s King! And Back With A Vengeance

Not too long after Sidney Crosby’s return to the Pittsburgh Penguins, has there been a large target placed upon his back by the classless Philadelphia Flyers.

Winnipeg loves GST

There was obviously the classic “Go-Jets-Go.” We also heard “Jooooseeeee” in a successful attempt to throw Panthers goaltender Jose Theodore off his game. We even heard Jets fans declare, “We-want-first-place.” But during the final seconds [...]

Jets will have to rely on #22 Chris Thorborn to make something happen on the ice for more points for any playoff chance.

Will Power Play Pummel Keep Jets from Playoffs?

Photo: winnipegjets.com Making it to the playoffs is going to be a long shot out of hell if the Jets can’t get their offensive line in sequence and score on the power play. Let’s save the small talk, our O-line is in deep trouble. Typical odds are a 3 out of 5 scoring chance during [...]
