Stanley Cup Playoffs – Round 3 Game 2: Golden Knights 3 Jets 1 recap

After a big game one win the Jets fell in game two to see the series evened at one.  Not much happening for the home side in this one as they couldn’t overcome two Vegas goals in the last six and a half minutes of the 1st period.  Kyle Connor’s third brought them within one but shortly thereafter (1:28 to be precise) the Golden Knights went back up by two and that’s how this one would end.

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.
