Winnipeg looked like they were gonna cruise to a second win in a row but they couldn’t hold off Ottawa who forced OT and then won in extra time. That loss in overtime meant that the Jets went 1-2-1 during this homestand.

Now they head out for the final three games on the road before the Christmas break starting in St. Louis where they will face off against the Blues on Wednesday.

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.
