Introduction:
The conditions tonight are perfect. The weather forecast this evening for the Donald Street White Out party calls for clear skies and 10 degrees Celsius (that’s sweater weather for our American readers). It is the beginning of a long weekend for most Jets fans. And, the Jets have officially shifted into playoff mode courtesy of two impressive road wins in St. Louis. The series is tied at two and I fully expect that it will take all three remaining games for a winner to emerge. I’m also confident now that the Jets are up to the task if they continue to play the way they have the last two games. It looks like there are no line up changes for either team from game four. The Blues have won twice at Bell MTS Place, so we know they are not intimidated by the White Out frenzy. This is a pivotal game and should be a real barn burner.
Go Jets!!!!!!!!!
Random Prediction:
I’m sticking with my previous prediction. Bryan Little scores tonight! I feel he is due.
