Game 45: Canadiens 4 Jets 1 post-game recap

Ugly all around for the Jets, as they are handily defeated by Montreal by a 4-1 margin. They fall to 29-15-1 as they begin the five-game road trip with a loss.

Another game, another assist for Josh Morrissey who got his 41st in game 45.

3G 7A for Nikolaj Ehlers since he’s returned to the lineup for Winnipeg.
