Record:

Patrik Laine picked up a secondary assist on the opening goal of the game for the Jets which was his 200th NHL point (114 goals & 86 assists).  20 games into the season and Laine leads the Jets in assists (14). Who woulda thunk that? He had 20 total the entire 2018-19 season in which he played 82 games. (last year he got his 14th assist on March 3rd).

Josh Morrissey

Mark Scheifele

Coach Maurice:  His thoughts on the Scheifele line tonight?  How big was Morrissey’s goal?  Play of Laurent Brossoit.  Did he like the offence they were able to generate?  What’s his biggest takeaway from the first quarter of the season?
