The Wild are playing their second game in as many days and needed to make the flight in from Minneapolis. Both teams are looking for points and a win as these two teams could see each other in the first round of the playoffs.

Rick Bowness called it one of the best games of the season for the Winnipeg Jets.

NOTES: Pierre-Luc Dubois will not be on the team’s charter when he takes off tomorrow for Florida. “He’ll figure it out,” Bowness said of his netminder. Putting up that many shots, that many Grade-As, you’re going to take that most nights.” But I’ll take that effort and the way we played against anybody all year.” On the shot clock, the team’s head coach would be right.

Marc-Andre Fleury turned aside 46 shots for the Wild as Winnipeg falls to 2-7-2 in their last 11 games.

Winnipeg managed to cut the lead to one again with 2:45 to go in the period. As the Jets tried to clear the puck out of their own end, they turned it over, leading to a breakaway for Frederick Gaudreau. It was Stanley’s first goal of the season and third in 110 career regular season games. “We got to win some games on the road, but the most important thing is to keep the effort, and play like we did tonight.” Nate Schmidt sent a lazy wrister in the direction of the net, and it fluttered right to Niederreiter, who caught it, dropped it and fired it past Fleury all in one motion. Winnipeg will now head on the road for a three-game trip that begins Saturday in Florida against the Panthers. The puck drops from Sunrise just after 6 p.m. A power play late in the first also proved fruitless. Adam Lowry found David Gustafsson cutting to the net but the Swede was denied by Fleury. The Jets power play continues to do them no favours. “One of the best games we’ve played all year,” said Jets head coach Rick Bowness. Putting up that many shots, that many grade-A’s, you’re going to take that most nights.”

Marc-Andre Fleury made 46 saves to lift the Minnesota Wild to a 4-2 victory over the Winnipeg Jets on Wednesday that extended the team's point streak to 11 ...

They had previously been scored on in the first period of a 2-1 victory in Vancouver last Thursday. It was the 15th game in the defenceman's injury-marred season. The victory moves the Wild into a tie with the idle Dallas Stars atop the Central Division. The Jets had six shots at that point and Fleury made some vintage sprawling, glove-snapping saves. It also extended his point streak to four games (two goals, two assists). Oskar Sundqvist and Jake Middleton each contributed a pair of assists.

While the Winnipeg Jets are reeling, they're still a good bet to reach the playoffs, but that's largely due to their nightly dependence on Connor Hellebuyck ...

The bad news is if it can’t dig out of this rut, I fear Winnipeg’s front office may have to seriously reevaluate the roster in what could be their first busy off-season in a long, long time. The current version of this team is entirely built off the back of Hellebuyck. Consider a distribution of Hellebuyck’s performance in games where the Jets emerged victorious versus games they lost in regulation or overtime. And if their current play is indicative of how the rest of the season may go, Winnipeg could be in for quite the battle. One of the things I keep circling back to with Winnipeg is how reliant they are on goaltending. Winnipeg wins games when Connor Hellebuyck erases a bunch of goals.

Daily Faceoff hockey analysts Tyler Yaremchuk and Frank Seravalli discussed the Winnipeg Jets' recent slide in the standings on Thursday's episode of Daily ...

And certainly part of the issue is, you see a game like last night (on Wednesday evening against the Wild), and you’re thinking, ‘OK, this Jets team, their process is there.’ They were peppering the Wild and they were in a spot where they were absolutely buzzing. They have four games in hand on the Jets and are only six points back. Now you look at the West and you go, you’re only four points clear of the Calgary Flames, and points percentage-wise, the Nashville Predators are right there behind you.

Maybe I jumped the gun on the Winnipeg Jets needing a heart transplant.

“A gritty, playoff-style of hockey.” Then it’s off to Carolina, Tuesday. We haven’t lost that eighth spot right now so we have to fight to keep it.” “Those other teams still have to win games to catch us,” Bowness said after the Minnesota loss. We’re going to keep pushing. “We’re going to stick with it. We’re giving up a goal like that and we’re losing by one goal.” It was so bad, their coach didn’t even know what to tell them after the game. Article content The last couple games have been a hell of a lot better, so we’ve got to keep building.” “Right now, that’s what’s happening. “There’s a lot of fight,” Connor said.

Fade into the background or stand up and be counted? These are the choices the Winnipeg Jets are left with as they head out onto the road for a three-game ...

“We have to play like that and we have to play like that every night. The last couple games have been a hell of a lot better, so we got to keep building, keep getting better and look on for the next one.” “We know we have a great team here, we’ve just got to put it together. Those other teams still have to win games to catch us,” Bowness said on Wednesday night before his team departed to the Sunshine State for games on consecutive days against the Panthers and Tampa Bay Lightning. “There’s a lot of fight. Even the guys out of the lineup, they come in and do a great job. And if you play like that every night, there's no way the puck's not going to go in. We just have to play like that. Yet, the Jets found ways to overcome injuries to key cogs earlier this season and perhaps this critical stretch will end up serving as a bit of a rallying point for a team in serious need of one. We’re still sitting in a playoff spot. It’s impossible not to argue that the Jets were on the receiving end of that in losses to the San Jose Sharks and the Wild, where James Reimer and Marc-Andre Fleury stole the show. Instead of cruising toward the post-season and playing their best hockey of the campaign, the Jets are in a holding pattern, searching for answers and wondering when the tables might be ready to turn.
