- We can all agree this is going to be a very challenging series for the Colorado Avalanche in facing the Winnipeg Jets. Not only did the Jets sweep the season series against the Avs, they likely will have the home ice for the series.
Does this mean the Avs don't have a chance? Of course not. But where do they need to exploit the Jets?

![Josh Morrissey - Winnipeg Jets Defenseman [Full Interview] | Frankly Speaking Podcast](/img/n.gif)
Hey…with the playoffs approaching we will have fans from opposing teams joining the comments here and there. Don’t forget to be cool , respectful and good sports here, show them that Avs fans are cooler than most and let’s represent the team well! Peace, love and hockey yall ✌🏻
A few of those opposing-team-fan comments are so provocative, it kinda feels like you might just lecture them with a "hey now....." :^) but yeah, agree, avoid trash talk in response, as would an adult.
How about stop censoring the Avs fans that are here first just because you don't like what I say!!! all comments from disaster video are GONE. that's weak
@@bafriesenWe don't remove comments short of racist or misogynistic comments
@@bafriesenoff to a hot start aren’t ya
@@LockedOnAvalanche Thank you. I was going to say man I didn't say anything racist or misogynistic at all. I know Avs fans still don't like my take that Avs need bigger and meaner defensemen, but that was hardly a reason to censor me.
You said it….bednar is a players coach
Paul Maurice is a players coach but the jets needed someone to push them and Bowness is that guy tough with love ❤️
If Jets did have the recent 6 game losing streak and they even split those games they would have finished 1st in the conference. This is going to be a tough series for the Avs to win. Winnipeg is probably the most underrated team in the league with a very strong fan base. Those white outs in playoffs are unreal and could rattle the avs.
Jets fan here. AVS are deadly on the offence, and with the super start players...Jets will need to step up. Good luck!
Jets fans here, I am excited to see the series. May the best team win. Whoever imposes their will should take the series. Cheers guys.
I’m looking forward to this series , good luck and may the best team win.
U guys are going down. Jets are flying high right now! Lets go Jets!!
Hellebuyck already has a Vesina. And he’s better this year than when he won it.
I feel like he’s finally due for league wide superstar status
He should win it this year hands down
Vezina.
Define Avalanche Hockey: Good enough to beat anyone, bad enough to lose to anyone...
Gotta be honest feels like I just watched a locked on jets episode, without the accents. WTF. Just kidding, I appreciate your non-homer, neutral look at this matchup. I'm sticking to my rope-a-dope theory, though.
The no-offensive-star structure of the jets is a tough thing to defend; just slowing down a player or two just doesn't limit their offense. Brilliant. However, Bednar's adaptive tactics and strategies are freaking stellar, and he stays frosty.
Honestly, I am really happy for the Jets and their fans, they have been so ridiculously good, and they've earned it.
Thank- you!
Manitoban speaking. The Avalanche must not be taken lightly by the Jets at any point or Winnipeg is screwed.
It’s the depth of the team that performs best in the playoffs. I think Colorado is pretty top heavy this year
The Jets need to stay out of the box.
Everything has felt different since the Rangers game when Nates streak ended. The Jets series is going to be hairy no joke.
Jets fan here. Going to be a great series . Go Jets Go. I like to listen to thoughts on the other side of the series. Great channel.
I really enjoyed the show guys. Great analysis on each phase of the teams and how they compare. Since the Jets returned we have never play the Avs in the playoffs so I’m pretty pumped. I’m thinking 7 games if the jets can contain Nathan and Cale. I’m just happy the jets look like they should be heathy. Last year we lost ehlers, Morrissey, and schiefele against the golden knights.
Jets in 5. The Avs have THE WORST defense of all West playoff teams.
I’m looking forward to this series, this will be fun
This series will be the hardest for the avs. Colorado can outscore most opponent's except the jets. All because of hellebuyck. Pepper him like we did to vasey, If we can get( not counting on it) playoff georgiev, we can definitely do this in 6 to 7. If we get fourgieve, we can fourget this years playoffs. Let's go avs
The Avs will need to find a way to unlock Bucky and they will have a chance.
First time I've watched your podcast. Excellent job, much better than DNVR. Jet fan but I like to listen to podcast from other teams in the division. Excellent analysis. Something we are not use to here in Canada where it is constantly Leafs, Leafs, Leafs despite them being a medicore for so long. For the most part, I agree with you. Really like the line about Sherman tank v Porsche.
Disagree with you slightly in your analysis of defence. For as much as there is a gap between the Avs and Jets on offence, there is a larger gap in favour of the Jets on defence. But with that said, the Jets outscored the Avs, head to head, 17-4. Even if you throw out that last game, the Jets outscored the Avs 10-4.
Also gave the edge to the Avs on the PP and PK. Yet, once again head to head, the Jets were 3-6 on the PP whereas the Avs were 1-9. Once again you can throw away that last game and the Jets were 1-3 whereas the Avs were 1-8.
This is going to be a great series. The key will be the Jets maintaining their structure vs the Avs ability to pick the lock.
Of course, my money is on the Jets. Jets in 6.
I didnt like the kracken match up last year, but i hate the jets match up. They are 0 and 4 vs the jets, and they were not competitive in any of those games. This isn't a goalie issue.... this is a team wide problem
As a Jets fan I’m looking forward to a classic series, may the best team win Go Jets Go 👍👍
May the best team win, great to have you stop by!
This is the one team i didnt want to face lol that being said though this is no way gonna be a sweep. I think jets win in 6 or 7 based on how well they made this roster. Those 4 lines are scary balanced and make you pay if you lose on the boards. Jets, and Avs have both had mental lapses during the season though with losing streaks so it's gonna be interesting series and im excited for some playoff hockey!!! In Mack Mikko and Makar we have to trust 🤞
@@Nate-vq8wyThat’s how I see it too. But, as we all know a new season will soon start on April 20. Anything can happen. Go Jets Go!
The only thing that the avalanche have on my jets is. Franchise players and a more engaging and interesting locked on podcast 😂
Jets fan. This is going to be a great series no matter who wins. I can see this going 7 games. Good luck, I pray for all the players safety in this tight checking hard hitting series.
The Jets will score a few easy goals on Georgiev then shut the door. I see that pattern repeating itself in every game in the playoffs. I'm not too hopeful about the Avs' chances against that kinda team.
I feel that if we play better defense I think we should win but if we can’t fix that we will be done quickly. And fourgiev needs to make some freaking saves
I absolutely agree when the defense plays to potential…the team ascends
Looking forward to a good, clean, fast and skilled series. I’m also hoping Avs fans are highly knowledgeable about hockey? I also hope Bettman doesn’t pull his crap with his refs, to help his big market USA team. Other than that, may the best team win. At least the winner won’t be severely injured from cheap shots, as both teams play with class. (Yes, I’m talking to you PK Subban) Go Jets go!
A couple weeks ago, when everything was clicking after the trade deadline, I thought the Avs could beat any team in the league. I guess I still believe that, but they have to play a full 60 and this has been a problem with them all season long.
Winnipeg is the hardest matchup they could've drawn. Hellebuyck is a game stealer, and even if the Avs are on their game they will have a hard time scoring on him. What I hope to see from the Avs is a commitment to the defense playing defense. I hope they spend a week of practices learning how to clear the freaking zone.
Unpopular opinion - Makar is not having a great year. Yeah, he has a lot of points, but it has been at the expense of his defense, which is supposed to be his primary job.
I was at the Jets game and that was by far the worst performance I think I've ever seen from this team. But here's a fun fact: they won the faceoffs something like 65% to 35%. Didn't seem to mean anything...
You said it all talking about playing 60 minutes. That and complete carelessness in their own zone. Defense turns it over way too often. They get beat to the puck, way too often. It’s not hard to out work the Avalanche. The defensive incompetence has not been fixed all season long. It kills them how often Georgiev gives up goals on the first shot. I don’t see this series going more than five games.
Dope new intro yall
Jets fan agree with your assessment on the breakdowns including special teams, however the Jets PP has improved greatly since the addition of Monahan and with a healthy Villardi it's a dangerous first unit Vilardi-Scheifele-Monahan-Connor-Morrissey. While not as good as the Avs PP the Jets PP is better than their season average of 19%. This series is going to come down to adjustments Avs coaching makes to counter the Jets current game plan. Avs haven't had an answer for the Jets all year outscored 17-4 in the three meetings. I expect this series to be a good one I think this series can go seven and it should be entertaining hockey.
Listening to this as an Avs fan from Winnipeg. They (the team's ownership) cracked down on reselling tickets, costing season ticket holders a "seller's" fee, which drove ticket resale way down and ticket prices way up. Season ticket holders used to sell ticket at face value or even at a bit of a discount, which was great for the casual fan looking for a night out. Instead this year, those casual fans are looking at regular seats because at the end of the day they're cheaper, but still way more than most people can afford right now, especially when taking the whole family. Its a total joke, people here absolutely adore the Jets, but True North is making hard to directly support them. Go Avs, I'll be at game 1 👌
I’ll try and be one of the few voices of optimism in the chat. I think the 7-0 game on Saturday may just wake up the sleeping giant. Anyone who’s played sports and been on the wrong end of an embarrassing loss probably knows there are basically two ways to react. The first is to bury the tail between the legs and surrender to the fact that you’re inferior and continue to play without any confidence. The second is fiery motivation to do everything possible not to feel that embarrassment again. Considering the Avs are professionals and the core has won at the highest level, I think the second is the more likely scenario. Does that mean they win the series? No idea because it hasn’t happened. Only thing it means is that I don’t personally have to start watching the series expecting the only potential result to be doom and gloom.
LFG AVS!
8:01 I don’t buy that you would feel good about a series with Dallas considering how both teams have looked going into playoffs.
Everyone has a chance against this Avs team lol
If you're just going by how they have looked as of late, you aren't confident in facing anyone. If you're going by matchups during the season, I'd rather face Dallas.
@@LockedOnAvalanche regular season matchups have never held much weight into what happens in the playoffs. How teams are playing going in is usually a much better indicator for what to expect. I don’t doubt that you would rather face Dallas. I doubt that you would be “feeling pretty good” going in.
@@Joe_Ma99 that's exactly what I'm telling you. I know people want to be afraid of whoever a #1 seed is, but as far as who the Avs matchup better against, that's Dallas. I'm not saying they would run over them, but I like how they matchup with them much better than Winnipeg.
@@Joe_Ma99 I would absolutely rather see the stars over the jets. No different than the stars would rather see the jets than the avs, or Winnipeg wanting the avs more than the stars. Past performance doesn't predict future results, but those matchups do have some translation forward
Why not embrace the underdog tag? All the pressure is on the Jets - higher seed, swept Avs in regular season, better goalie, and havent delivered in the playoffs yet.
Avs have a cup and are playing with house money after limping into the playoffs 😂
An exaggeration but you know what I mean
That may be the true story
Jets fan here. Avs have really been struggling but playoffs are a different beast. If the Jets underestimate the Avs from the 7-0 rout, Avs have a chance.
Why would they underestimate based on that score when after the game bones said we know that was their C game lol
I think the Jets have an obvious advantage in net, Avs have an obvious advantage in the top 6 forwards, the Jets have an advantage in team d, Avs have an advantage on the PP. so for me the Avs would need #29 to be all world in 4 games. He can definitely be that guy so it’s going to come down to #29 and who gets the bounces. Bring it on. BTW, I’m a Jets fan but Avs winning the cup wouldn’t hurt me unlike say … Edm or the Cap circumventors in the desert
I'll say that i think the jets vs avs series will be 6-7 games going either way. But if a sweep were to happen then i think the avs would be on the wrong end of it as i personally dont think the avs are capable of sweeping their team imo. Unless the star's (not the dallas ones) magically align or something funky like that and the avs go back to being a 7-9 game win streak team lol.
It’s gonna be a ride that’s for sure lol
The avs can sweep any team in the league
@@kalebmcdaniel9147not with that goaltending lmao
Oh yeah, could we win a face off for f sake
Hey boys. 👋🤟✌️ Ready for the playoffs?❤💙
Heyyyy , I guess as ready as we will ever be lol
Stay positive guys, it’s good to see. There are too many trolls in Winnipeg channels that are really down on several players and the coach. I really don’t get it. I can’t disagree with your assessment. It is fair and honest. Really good job.
Basically if you bribe the ref you have a chance to win Avs!
Otherwise get ready to be Goatsied Avs !
What do you guys think the Avs playoffs slogan will be? Hopefully better than last year amirite?? "We rise as ONE!!"
According to their website it's "All In"
The Jets are pretty good at back to backs
Kyle looks like he could be Neil Pionk’s brother.
This is a series the Avs should win, but they’ll have to tighten up their defense, and that includes the forwards too, while becoming a coordinated unit that includes depth scoring ( not just Mack’s line). Otherwise the Jets will have the advantage.
It's a series the Avs CAN win. I don't think it's a series they SHOULD win.
We'll see how Winnipeg will handle being the HUGE favorite after the blowout on Saturday. To the Vegas game, with a different Josh Manson, they would have won that game!
Jets are betting underdogs everywhere that I have seen... no way they are huge favorites.
GoJetsGo!!
Glad you stopped by!
They have an identity, mental lapses in the defensive zone that cost them. They make lazy attempts at getting the puck out that results in goals against. I feel like we are one and done. With that said, we are loaded flip the switch and let it ride… let’s hope
It builds character lol
Intangible: To a man, Jets know they have the AVS number. This will be a very confident group. On the other hand, AVS players would not be human if they didn't have multiple seeds of doubt going into this matchup.
This episode was so hilarious. I couldn’t stop laughing at every word you guys said during that advantage breakdown. You don’t judge advantages on what the 2 teams have done with the other 30 teams in the league. Rather Advantage breakdowns are based on the three games that these two teams have played against each other. It will be a victory if the AVS don’t get sweep by the Jets. You guys are hilarious. Try some of the Awesome Sauce the AVS been having this April with a 2-5-1 record once the Oilers are done with the AVS on Thursday.
Definitely never felt comfortable with the Avalanche's defense....like actual defense. Not skate around and score defense 🙄. I've said FOREVER that the Avs blue line might have talent but they don't have what WPG does which is BIG, mean, defense first guys with F*** you attitudes and won't let the other team camp in front of their goalie without consequence. Avs fans are starting to see how big of a red flag that actually was, and I just say "Told you so". The GM expects them to try and skate their way through 4 of toughest rounds when their legs are giving out after a full season. That's not what wins it all. The game slows and gets brutal, not faster and easier.
Winnipeg's blue line used to be like that even a couple years back. Drove me nuts watching other teams standing in the crease sometimes just waiting for the inevitable pass or deflection
Nowhere lol Winnipeg has scored AT-WILL against the Avalanche all season. They will smoke the Avs in this series. The Avs are awful right now, first round exits for sure.
We shall see
Just last season, the core of the Jets were being broke up in the offseason with Hallebuyck being the big fish in trade bait. Like Vancouver and Boston, Winnipeg outplayed their expectations. We'll see if they can actually perform in the Postseason with no experience.
No they won’t the avs didn’t have the same team for half the games this season and they also didn’t appear to be trying just as the 2022 season went before they won the cup never count the avs out
Colorado has better stars, but far less depth and much worse goaltending. Still, when you have MacKinnon and Makar, you always have a chance.
Avs in 6. We have more playoff performers who turn into ANIMALS in playoffs over the Jets. Remember the Jets were on a suuuuuper cold streak before their random hot one right now.
There isn't a ref squad alive that would let a series be determined by special teams
Wanna bet? $$$$$$$$$$$$
Lol more Jets fans in the comments
Bowness had to coach some bad teams in the past
The Avalanche have no advantages against the Jets. 4-2. 6-2. 7-0. Notice a pattern? Four games left, Avalanche.
Take away the goalies the AvS have the better roster. If we lose the series we know why it will happen...
That isn't why the jets have beaten the avs this year. Georgiev played his role, but that ignores the defensive breakdowns and absolute no show offensive efforts in the matchups this year. If the avs can average 4 goals a game they have a shot...if they average 1 they don't.
@@qp2044It's the default Jets perspective. Hellebuyck is definitely one of the best goalies on the planet, thus the narrative almost always becomes that he single handedly beat whatever team they're up against😂
@@qp20444 goals against the Jets each game?
@@meagainandagain5756 yes, if the avs are going to win they are going to need to hit their average goals per game...they do average that high for a reason. I also recognize that the jets don't give up that many on average, so whomever can hit their average will have a huge advantage
Vegas has the Jets as the underdog in this series. No respect.
Even better for Wpg. Avs have never experienced the whiteout. Go Jets Go!
The Avalanche has an advantage over Winnipeg in Goalies... unless Georgiev is in net, or that other guy. The Avalanche has an advantage over Winnipeg in Defense because they've only let in 17 goals in 3 games... that's amazing! The Avalanche has an advantage over the Winnipeg Jets in Offense because the Jets have only scored 17 times while the best team ever (the Avalanche) have scored 4 times... that's impressive! The Avalanche have an advantage in all matters, unless the Jets are on the ice. yup. that's it. Advantage Avalanche, unless you look at reality or stats. FIRST ROUND EXIT! for the advantaged Avalanche. It's an advantage because they get to book better and sooner tee times!
Oh this is cute lol
Sorry. I didn’t hear that. You must have had your tongue in your cheek.
@@AlergicToSnow I didn't say anything. It turns out even with my tongue in my cheek, that doesn't affect typing. nice try though. you almost seemed intelligent.
Not even close defensively. To act like it needs to be considered is stupid. Avs offence, yeah okay.
Advantage: Winnipeg
FOURgiev SUCKS! Colorado should have picked up an even half decent backup. They might not get swept as I predict they will, but they get bounced in the first round… again
His defense is atriocious, including Makar and Toews.
It’s 50/50
If I was a betting man, I would bet on the Avalanche.
I'll take that bet! How much because I am holding you to it! it's a verbal and binding contract now
WHY?? 😂 The Jets are clearly superior. They own the Avs.
@@Milehighmez15 do you want in on this bet? we can share his life savings together
Let’s gooo
You are beyond delusional we know the avs will flip the switch and find gears that the jets don’t even know exist
