The Jets did it all but score enough to win the game which is kinda the name of the game. Winnipeg loses to Minnesota for the third time this season.

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:

Logan Stanley picked up his first goal of the season as he brought Winnipeg within one.

Newest Jet Vladislav Namestnikov got his first point with Winnipeg.

Another goal for Nino Niederreiter which was his 400th NHL point.

The Jets dominated in most areas but a few weak goals, an inability to score on the power play left Winnipeg with a loss they could ill afford.

Multi Point Game:

None.
