Game 3: Wild 6 Jets 5 in OT post-game recap

And that is ballgame as the Wild storm back to win it in OT. Jets fall to 0-2-1. Yikes.

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

Notable:

It was a wild (no pun intended) opening 20 minutes in St. Paul as Not So Friendly Manitoba and Minnesota Not So Nice renewed hostilities after a 22 month absence.

Kyle Connor scored two goals in under five minutes in the 1st period.

First power play goal of the season came for the Jets in the 2nd period courtesy of Josh Morrissey.

Another power play goal for Winnipeg came in the 3rd courtesy of Pierre-Luc Dubois.

Nate Schmidt picked up his first point as a Jet.

Andrew Copp with a beauty goal on a 2 on 1.

Multi point game:
