Jets on a Deadline–Jets v. Bruins (Nov 26, 2011)


The Jets built a two goal lead but some questionable penalties at the end of the 1st period gave Boston some life and they narrowed the lead as the Stanley Cup champs scored 4 unanswered to win the game 4-2.  The Jets return home for a 5 game homestand starting on Tuesday against the Senators.

Here are some recaps from the newspapers:

Winnipeg Free Press:  Cup-champion Bruins beat rookie Jets.

Winnipeg Sun:  Bruins defeat Jets 4-2.

Globe and Mail:  Bruins overcome jitters to beat Jets.

Boston Globe:  Bruins bounce back to drop Jets.

Boston Herald:  Bruins get back on track.

ESPN:  Bruins Kelly proving to be key contributor.

ESPN:  Julien’s TO turns tide for Bruins.

NHL.com:  Thomas rolls along as B’s beat Jets.

Three Stars:

1st:  Chris Kelly

2nd:  Tim Thomas

3rd:  Rich Peverly

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
