So many awards…so many playoff failures. Hilarious.

I wouldn't be laughing...the worst current day playoff goaltender didn't go home after one round this time...

True. However it wasn't because of him.

Helle sure did everything he could to hand that series to the Blues. In the end his skaters just refused let him complete the collapse. They didn't win the President's Trophy for nothing.

It took a perfect storm for him and his team to advance.

Have that exact scenario take place 100 times, Winnipeg likely fails 98.

It took a perfect storm for the Blues to beat the sharks on their cup run.

Nobody remembers the storms

You seem to overlook the fact we ALL watched the games! Seems to me the Blues overcame some big storms, particularly an infamous hand-pass non call.

Lot easier to overcome something like that when their best players aren’t playing … Dawg

Right now anyway the Jets have a matzo ball sized problem on their hands.

I suspect they dont feel the same

Did the Jets apologize to the Blues for beating them with Holloway on the shelf? Not how it works. Both teams were in the same round, if you can't stay on the ice you get to watch your team get kicked to the curb.

None of that makes any sense in the context of what I originally stated…which is true.

The storm for the sharks was injuries? Just curious it's been a few yrs.

Just everything together. Started out well for them, but they lost the equivalent of Piertrangelo and ROR. Couldn’t compete psychologically after that…or in general

Remember the Jets fans chanting MVP! MVP! When they play here next year, we should chant "Not Conn Smythe! Not Conn Smythe!
