The winless skid hits five (0-4-1) for the Jets as they play a heck of a game against the Golden Knights but Vegas defeats Winnipeg 4-1. Powerless PP (0/5) contributes big time to the loss.

Notable:
The Jets have some unusual pre-game routines as Mark Scheifele and Mason Appleton demonstrated here.
700 NHL games for Vlad Namestnikov as fans gave him some love.
Less than a minute into this game Connor Hellebuyck was tested with a good chance by Jack Eichel.
Second game in a row that Logan Stanley drops the gloves and pumps up the crowd.
What a tip by Sean Monahan. He’s made it quite the art form as he tied the game with his 23rd goal of the season.
Josh Morrissey played a monster amount of this hockey game (played just a shade under 30 minutes).
The difference in this hockey game was the powerless power play as Winnipeg went 0/5 with the chances they had.
What also didn’t help was the reversal of the five-minute major in the 3rd which completely changed this game as they downgraded the Nic Hague headshot on Vlad Namestnikov to a two-minute minor. They also hit Mark Scheifele with a two, five and ten minute penalties which meant he was done for the night.
Ivan Barbashev broke this game open with the GWG with 5:49 left as he took advantage of a good attack by Vegas.
