Winnipeg Sun:  Power-play icebreaker just what the Jets orderedWhile it was nice to see the team get a special teams goal, it is still important to realize that was on a 5 on 3.  The Jets remain1/31 with the man ‘advantage’ and the streak won’t quite be broken until the guys can score 5 on 4.  Ted also looks at the play of Devin Setoguchi who has to go back to junior hockey to recall last time he was on the point.
