Notable:

Big milestone for the first ever Winnipeg draft pick selected in the 1st round back in 2011 as Mark Scheifele played in his 900th game in a Jets jersey. He trails just former 1.0 captain Thomas Steen by 50 games for most all-time which he could eclipse by the end of this season. The team honoured him during a commercial timeout.

Early in the game Neal Pionk went for a hit and came up a bit awkwardly. He was in some pain on the bench. He’s been labouring since the first shift of the game. He would head to the room and not return.

Wild goalie Jesper Wallstedt was a wall. Even when his team handed out free pizzas the Jets could not convert. Or get any puck luck like with this play.

There was a heavy weight tilt between a pair of 17s when Lowry and Foligno dropped the gloves. The rivalry was back to Not so Friendly Manitoba vs Minnesota Not So Nice.
