You guys do realize we have a St. Louis blues Cornell connection probably more important than Barron/malinski/etc going on?

We... do?

With the Avs' unfortunate third-period collapse

Meanwhile, the Blues final two minute collapse keeps Barron alive headed to overtime.  Morgan is 2-6 in faceoffs tonight and presumably has looked every bit of it.

I'd think it would be

And the Jets get it done in 2OT on a deflection from Joel Lowry's brother, Adam!

Not that Morgan did a ton to acquit himself later in the game, but he stuck it out with the rest of the Jets and they won the fourth-longest game seven in NHL history (after the latest tying goal in NHL game seven history).

Bring on Dallas!

EDIT: Apparently THIRD longest game seven in NHL history by the time it actually ended. Zoiks.

Even though he wasn't superb in the faceoff dot tonight, I saw several strong shifts from him in both OT periods, and Arniel must have a lot of faith in his play as he was 5th among Winnipeg forwards in ice time with 26:42.

His faceoff numbers improved in the OT's

Fair - and he wasn't afraid to put his body in play, like always - but he also looked a step behind the Blues most of both OTs.

I watched only the first overtime, when he was chasing the play the whole time. TBH I was terrified he was going to get a hook or an interference and put them down a man.  That would have been suboptimal.

Boy, he tries, though!  He is busting his ass every second out there, and that is wonderful to see.

I think the whole taking a skate blade to the face and getting 75 stitches only to return later in the same game situation back in the 2023 playoffs forever endeared Barron to his teammates (and Jets fans):

Man that shit is terrifying.
