Notable:

Connor Hellebuyck started his 50th game of the season.

The Jets missed a prime opportunity in the opening period as they had just over a minute of a 5 on 3 opportunity to open the scoring.

There is a reason that Nikolaj Ehlers has the fourth most goals in Jets 2.0 history….man can he shoot that puck which he did to tie the game on a 2 on 0 with Pierre-Luc Dubois.

Andrew Copp was knocked out of the game in the 3rd period.

Kyle Connor scored his 37th goal in his 60th game of the season which is one off his career high. He remains on pace to eclipse 50 goals.

Pierre-Luc Dubois scored his 24th goal in 59 games. His career high is 27 in 82.

Multi points:

Kyle Connor 1G 2A
Pierre-Luc Dubois 1G 1A
Nikolaj Ehlers 1G 1A
