2019 Stanley Cup Playoffs – Round 1 Game 3: Jets 6 Blues 3 post-game recap

The Jets had their best effort thus far in the #StanleyCup Playoffs & win the “must-win” Game 3 by a 6-3 margin. 5 different goal-scorers for the Jets (Connor x2, Hayes, Laine, Tanev, Byfuglien). It was one of the best possession games in a long while, reminiscent of last season’s Jets team. Both the 1st & 2nd period saw the Jets with a 63-37 CF% (SVA) advantage.

For those who would like to take a deeper dive into the advanced stats here are the results from tonight’s game via Natural Stat Trick.
