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:
A slow start for Winnipeg as they only had one shot in the first ten minutes of the 1st period.
Pierre-Luc Dubois tried to get the Jets back into this game (and to get the crowd into it as well) with his 16th goal of the season.
No surprise but Josh Morrissey is now up to 34 assists on the season as he cracks the 40 point plateau for the first time in his career.
As per NHL PR: “Josh Morrissey became the fourth active blueliner to reach the 40-point mark within his first 35 games of a season”.
Just the third sellout of the season for the Jets and yet they’ve lost all three of those games.
The officiating was something to talk about once again.
