The Jets dropped the final game of their four game homestand 4-0 to the Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday night to slip to 10-8-1 on the season as they lose to a Central Division opponent for first time this season. The story of the game was Avalanche goalie Adam Werner who made 40 saves in his NHL debut.

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

Notable:

– Brandon’s Matt Calvert picked up two assists, playing on Colorado’s top line
– Nathan MacKinnon was a beast, finishing the game with 2G 2A in the win;
– Rookie defenceman Cale Makar was excellent on the Avs blueline with a goal and two off the crossbar.
