The Jets played a better game last night when they took on a juggernaut Stars team in Winnipeg but ultimately fell short with Dallas taking it 4-3 in regulation.
It wasn’t all bad news on Tuesday as we learned that Connor Hellebuyck would appear to be ahead of schedule following a minor arthroscopic knee procedure he had back on November 22nd.
The other bit of good news for the local NHL club is that the teams around them chasing the wild card are also not winning very many games. If they can get Hellebuyck back sooner rather than later and maybe some secondary scoring, they still have a good shot to overcome this dreadful stretch.
Skate news:
It was an optional but some very good news as Connor Hellebuyck, who is recovering from a knee procedure, joined the optional skate for the first time.
