Scheifele may be back in Game 7. He apparently feels way better today than yesterday per Arniel's presser today. Said game time decision

One good hard legal hit puts him right back out. Go get him Faksa :mrgreen:

Being good enough to play, and playing effective are two completely different things.

All Winnipeg likely needs though is for him to make 2 or 3 good plays for him to make a difference.

Good, he'll be there to assist again on the Blues' GWG.

The Jets have all the pressure on them as the Presidents Cup holder. The 8 seed Blues are playing with house money. And Binnington is money, while Hellebuyck is funny money.

I'll believe it when I see it. You may be right, or this may be wishful thinking by Arniel. I find that if he wasn't well enough to get on the plane yesterday, I have a hard time him playing and/or being an impact tomorrow night. We shall see.

Stay out of the box
Game 7/Gold Medal Binner
Initiate not retaliate
Score First

There, unprompted are your Toyota keys to the game.

I know for dang sure the Blues CAN win so ill take that

This is the Jets first must win game of the series while the blues have 2 and one can make a case its really 3 (down 0-2 game)

We'll see who is squezzing their sticks

Anyone know how many game 7's JB has lost?

Binnington is 2-0 in Game 7s.

In two career Game 7s, Binnington has an 0.82 goals-against average and .968 save percentage.

If we win, the stars of the game will be Binnington and Fowler I think.

If we lose, it will be from lack of scoring. We need at least 4 to have a chance to win.

I like our odds. I'd put it at 60% winning.

If he plays, the Blues better be careful laying that hit. After the Jets whining, the refs are gonna protect Scheifele like an antique china doll.

Well. Well. Well. We needed 4, and got 3.

The Jets had no goal-tending. No Scheifle. No Morrisey. No Eihlers. No Villardi. And yet they scored on Binnnington.

In contrast, the Blues only scored 3, and it was from mostly the 2nd-string.

Faulk -2; Schenn -3; Thomas 0G, 0A.

If Binny was in goal for a team with talent they’d be favorites to go all the way. You do realize all 4 Jets goal goals were on deflections one off his own man.
