Losing streak is over as the Winnipeg Jets play a strong game to defeat the LA Kings 4-3

The losing streak is over as the Jets play a strong game to defeat the Kings 4-3. Cole Perfetti with 2G 1A and Kyle Connor with 3A in the victory as 2nd line rolls.

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:

Winnipegger and NHL linesman Ryan Galloway was working his last NHL game tonight. He had 100s of loyal supporters inside CLC to cheer him on.

New career high for Dylan DeMelo who got the primary assist on the opening goal for Winnipeg. He’s got 2G 26A for 28 pts in 75 games. Last year he had 6G 21A for 27 points in 75 games.

Noah Kahan was in the house for the game before his concert here in Winnipeg tomorrow. He wants more goals and hits. So do Jets fans.

One thing resonating tonight: Fans love the bugling.

Another thing resonating was the play of Cole Perfetti who was a beast in his first game back after being a healthy scratch for a number of games.

Multipoint Game:

Cole Perfetti 2G 1A
Kyle Connor 3A
Josh Morrissey 1G A
