Game 82: Jets 4 Kraken 3 post-game recap

Jets win four in a row to conclude the season as they defeat the Kraken in the final game of the 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:

Morgan Barron scored his second goal of the season and his first in Winnipeg.

Three goals in the middle frame allowed the visitors to take control of the game.

But the Jets wanted Dennis Beyak, in his final Jets game, to get a chance to say “bang bang bang” as they scored three to take the lead.

Captain Blake Wheeler scored in his fourth straight game and appropriately Paul Stastny picked up his 800th NHL point to bring them within one.

Dominic Toninato tied the game with his seventh of the season.

And then appropriately Kyle Connor scored his 47th of the year to give Winnipeg the lead. He tied Mark Scheifele with the second most GWG on the all-time list. (33).

Eric Comrie picked up his 10th win of the season.

Multi point game:

Morgan Barron 1G 1A
Jansen Harkins 1G 1A
