Jets settle for a single point as they lose final game of road trip 3-2 in a SO to Habs

The Jets had a chance for two take a 2-1 lead but would have to settle for one as the Habs tied it up and won in a shootout. Winnipeg ends the five-game road trip going 1-3-1.

Notable:

Eric Comrie was a force in this game. He made a number of high-danger stops in the first period and throughout the game.

Top line scored both goals for the Jets (shocker) as Mark Scheifele and Kyle Connor both got their 14th goals of the season.

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.
