Jets' style of play not holding up against Avalanche
Eric Engels
Nothing should be more concerning to the Jets than the wide-open nature of play that’s mostly prevailed so far. It’s the opposite of how they’ve wanted it to go.

Jets' Hellebuyck the difference in wild, series-opening win over Avalanche
Eric Engels
A series-opening game that saw 13 goals scored was somehow marked by a single save at the most pivotal moment. That it was made by Connor Hellebuyck came as zero surprise to the Winnipeg Jets.
Unified, organized Jets have potential to end Canadian Cup drought
Eric Engels
It’s not a stretch to think this Winnipeg Jets team can finally bring the Cup back over the border because they have 20 players pulling in the same direction.  They’re a unified, organized wagon of a team, and that’s what wins in the playoffs.

Martin St. Louis proved this season he's steering Canadiens in the right direction
Eric Engels
We can talk about the growth of so many of his players, but coach Martin St. Louis' ability to bring the Canadiens together and inspire them to believe in what they were doing is the biggest reason for the team's fans to have hope.

Canadiens Takeaways: Second-period malaise proves costly vs. Islanders, at heart of all one-goal losses
Eric Engels
It was a 3-2 overtime loss to the New York Islanders, a league-leading 24th by a single goal for the Montreal Canadiens, and you could really feel it coming in the second period. No one who’s watched all 79 games the Canadiens have played this season would be surprised by that.
