Your Jets are feeling it today, eh?
I'll tell ya what, you can just feel it on the streets today, bud. From the folks grabbing their coffee at Stella's on Sherbrook to the guys waiting for the bus down by Portage and Main, there's a real hum. It's not full-on Whiteout insanity yet, but it's a quiet confidence, eh? Like everyone just *knows* what's at stake tonight against the Seattle Kraken. Nobody's checked out, I'll tell ya that much. Every conversation I overheard this morning, whether it was at the MTS Centre (yeah, I still call it that sometimes) or just walking past The Forks, it was all about the Jets and making that push.
The big talk, though? It’s all about the boys showing up for a full sixty minutes. We’ve seen flashes of brilliance, eh, but sometimes it feels like they take a period off. People are talking about Hellebuyck, of course, because he's just been a brick wall, but they want to see the offense light it up consistently. Nobody wants to be holding their breath in the last five minutes tonight. It's like, we've *got* this team, we've *got* this opportunity, and we just need to grab it.
* Quiet confidence, not crazy yet.
* Everyone wants a full 60-minute effort.
* Hellebuyck is solid, but the offense needs to click.
* No one is taking a single game for granted.
This city lived through losing the Jets once, eh? We're not about to waste a single opportunity now that they're back. From the Peg — Northy says Go Jets Go.
