Who will WIN this matchup?
Winnipeg Jets (9-5-1)
@ Edmonton Oilers (9-8-0)
Starting Goalies:
Connor Hellebuyck (WPG): Confirmed
Mike Smith (EDM): Confirmed
Current odds:
Winnipeg Jets: (+125)
Edmonton Oilers: (-145)
• Neither the Edmonton Oilers nor the Winnipeg Jets want a replay of Monday’s flurry of goals allowed. The Jets upended the host Oilers 6-5 in a goal-fest that left both teams hankering for a better defensive performance in the rematch Thursday at Edmonton. Score that many goals? Sure. Give up that many goals? No, thanks.
• Blake Wheeler scored the winning goal at 6:22 of the third period after Mark Scheifele, Kyle Connor, Mason Appleton, Nikolaj Ehlers and Mathieu Perreault each scored once for the Jets. Scheifele and Neal Pionk added two assists apiece.
• Alex Chiasson and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins each scored twice for the Oilers with Kailer Yamamoto adding one goal. Barrie, Connor McDavid and Evan Bouchard had two helpers each.
• McDavid’s secondary assist on Nugent-Hopkins’ second goal was his 499th point in 368 NHL games. Only two active players have reached 500 points in fewer than 400 games, Sidney Crosby of the Pittsburgh Penguins (369) and Alex Ovechkin of the Washington Capitals (373).
• Down 4-1 midway through the second, the Oilers clawed back to a 5-5 tie with three goals in the second and Nugent-Hopkins’ marker in the third. However, they gave the game away when left winger Dominik Kahun coughed up the puck at his own blue line for Wheeler’s game-winner.
• The Jets, while happy with the win, weren’t entirely thrilled with their heart-attack style of play either. “That’s a perfect example why coaches’ years and dog years are the same,” Winnipeg head coach Paul Maurice said. “It was not a particularly well-played game. We can all agree on that, except the skill level in some parts of that was so extreme.”
• Scheifele, who has four goals and seven assists during a seven-game point streak, admitted the win wasn’t pretty. Pionk played a gritty game to give the Jets the chance to win. The 25-year-old defenseman from Omaha, Neb., had a team-high four hits and blocked one shot in 24:47 of ice time.
