It’s remarkable what Vegas is doing.  Fleury the new Conn Smythe leader in the clubhouse, but I still think Winnipeg has a shot at this. 

Not if they can’t solve Fleury. He is in a zone like no other

Fleury is the biggest reason why they are up 3-1, but a few other factors

1) Vegas has had very quick responses to Jets goals

2) Vegas has cashed in on every big mistake the Jets have game in Games 2-4

3) Helle does not look like the same goalie he was against Nashville. Very unsure of himself, especially when handling the puck.

Don't get me wrong, a vast majority of the credit should go to MAF and Vegas in this series.  The Jets are doing things and making terrible mistakes they haven't been doing in these past 3 playoff games that have cost them dearly. 

Only Silver lining right now for Winnipeg is they are going back home.  At some point, if the Jets are truly going to win this series, Helle needs to steal at least one game and they need to get back to the play that made them successful in the Nashville and Minnesota series. 

and yes, solve the MAF puzzle.

It's the forecheck scheme VGK is playing. They must've seen something in scouting. They are not directly attacking the puck; they're making Hellebuyck think and make a play instead of just reacting.

Exactly and Helly is making bad decisions. A lot of credit has to go to Gallant and his coaching staff. Jets looked gassed at the end of that game last night. Big Buff especially. He had a terrible game overall.
