Notable:
It was a milestone game for Vlad Namestnikov who played in his 800th NHL game against a Sharks team that once traded for him but then subsequently dealt him to the Jets.
Josh Morrissey was done letting Logan Stanley be the leading D goal scorer on this Jets team. His second of the season made it a 1-0 game for Winnipeg.
Ironically TSN did a video saying how can the Jets stop Macklin Celebrini and the answer would be not giving him a breakaway just 1:12 after taking the lead.
After a bad middle frame the Jets went full blender on the lines and even the top D pairing.
They had a chance to take the lead when Cole Koepke had a chance to bury a puck into the empty net but he chose to make a move.
Tough night for Connor Hellebuyck who was absolutely ridiculous tonight in San Jose.
Atrocious defence by the Jets led to the Sharks taking a 2-1 lead late in the 3rd.
With the loss Winnipeg drops to 9-5-0.
