Game 48: Jets 1 Canucks 0 post-game report

The Jets are now 28-13-7 with the 1-0 win over the Canucks and leap ahead of Nashville back into 1st in the central (although the Preds have three games in hand).

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

Notable:

– Patrik Laine picked up his 21st goal of the season;
– Blake Wheeler got his 40th assist of the season;
– Connor Hellebuyck made 29 saves to pick up his fourth shutout of the season.
– Connor Hellebuyck is now 25-6-6 this season with four shutouts. That’s pretty, pretty, pretty good.

I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
