Then who else but Adam Lowry with a shorthanded goal to make it a 2-0 game. His third goal of the season and second shorty.
Another power play marker as Pierre-Luc Dubois scored his fifth of the season to take a 3-0 lead.
Arvid Soderblom made way for Dylan Wells who made his NHL debut to start the 3rd period.
And then in the 3rd it was time for Mambo No. 5 as Nate Schmidt finished off a perfect pass by Cole Perfetti to make it 4-0. Meant the Jets were 3/3 on the power play.
