The blues and jets are 501 strokes combined in their six games. The blues are third among the teams of the STANLEY Cup qualifiers with 252 strokes and the jets are just behind them with 249.
So far, the home team has won every match in the series. For the Blues, who dominated Enterprise Center, outclassing the 17-5 jets in their three victories there, it is a question of putting this match on the road.
“I think the two teams have proven the game they wanted to play on their ice cream at home. We did it here, they did it there. Now, we have to go and try to reach this game early. I think we can take a lot of things we have done here in our own building and transfer them to Winnipeg,” said Blues defender, Cam Fowler.
“But we know the situation in which we enter, the team against which we play, the season they had, and they play very well on the ice at home. So, we have to take a good start, we stand for things that we have done well in this series and to look at the tomorrow. Game 7, it is an excellent opportunity for the two teams, so we are waiting for the challenge.”
The jets, on the other hand, organize the first match 7 of their history. It will be another frantic environment, but the jets want to stick to what worked here in games 1, 2 and 5.
“I think we were really solid all year round at home. We know it, and we are comfortable playing here and the crowd really helps,” said Jets defender Dylan Samberg. “I think we just have to use this ice cream advantage at home to our advantage and make sure we stick to simple details and try not to vacillate.”
The Blues and the Jets organized a first -round show. It was entertaining. It was back and forth. It was intense. Match 7 promises to bring more than the same thing.
“I hope that it has an excellent end. All year round, we have put our work to build it. We talked about these situations and certain things that happened during the year that we do not know when it will increase in the playoffs, but now it’s here. Now, it’s match 7,” said Arniel.
“We have gone through construction elements to get here, to arrive at this moment. Whether through the 82 games, or the six games we have just played, these are all things that now (we) put it into play here for match 7 and I would like to think that our group is prepared. Now we are going out and do what we do best.”
