Notable:

It was a milestone night for Mark Scheifele and Nikolaj Ehlers. The 2011 and 2014 1st rounders of Winnipeg will play game number 700 and 500 respectively this evening for the Jets. 55 sits 4th in points in his draft class while 27 is 7th overall.

Career goal 169 in game 500 for Nikolaj Ehlers as he rips that shot home on the power play to tie the game for the Jets.

Kyle Connor hits the 40 assist mark for the second straight season with an assist on the first Jets goal. Last year he had 46 assists in 79 games. This year he’s on pace for 56 apples.
