Reaction from the Room: Jets 3 Blackhawks 2

The Jets held on for the 3-2 win over the Chicago Blackhawks tonight at Bell MTS Place as the Class of 2015 line of Mason Appleton, Jack Roslovic and Jansen Harkens came through as Winnipeg improves their overall record to 30-25-5.

For those who would like to take a deeper dive into the advanced stats here are the results from the game via Natural Stat Trick.

Notable:

– The trio of Appleton, Roslovic and Harkins did some nice work in the second period as they were responsible for the tying and go-ahead goals for the Jets. 1st rounder Roslovic (1G), 2nd rounder Harkins (1A) & 6th rounder Appleton (1G 1A).

– Patrik Laine hit the 30 assist mark for the first time in his career.

– Nathan Beaulieu scored his first goal of the season which is also his first goal as a member of the Jets organization. Hence him pulling the monkey off his back during his celebration.
