Game 78: Flames 3 Jets 1 post-game recap

Instead of delivering a knockout blow to the Flames playoffs hopes the Jets failure to take control in the 3rd period saw them breathe life into their fellow former Atlanta based club. Calgary and Winnipeg are now tied with 89 points although the Jets have one game in hand.
