Jets news:
Sportsnet: Adam Lowry’s scoring and crashing helping fuel Jets’ high-flying start. He’s on pace to obliterate his career highs in goals (15), assists (14) and points (29) with three goals and four assists through 11 games of the season. Even if he doesn’t he is providing the Jets with much needed depth scoring.
