When I was 10, my parents divorced and I was separated from my dad and my brother for six months during the custody battle. My dad, Jeff, won custody and our family was reunited. My dad worked hard and my grandmother, Judy, essentially raised me and my brother Matt while dad got back on his feet financially. My grandma died in August of 2016 after a long battle with cancer and while it brought the family closer together, her death wasn’t easy to handle. She did so much for me, my dad and my brother. I could never thank her enough. When I was 16, just before she passed away, I went to Portland and played four seasons with the WHL’s Winterhawks and in 2017 was drafted by the Vegas Golden Knights in the first round (sixth overall) of the NHL entry draft. In July of 2021, I was traded to Nashville and that’s where I play now.<h3>LAST HIGHLIGHT</h3>Winning the gold medal with Team Canada at the 2023 IIHF World Championship.<img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/champions-from-left-cody-glass,-tyler-toffoli-and-tyler-myers.jpg"><h3>THE FUTURE ME</h3>I am now a restricted free agent (arbitration-eligible) with Nashville so the goal is to sign a new contract and continue playing in the NHL.

TIM HORTONS NATIONAL TEAM PLAYER OF THE MONTH

<h2>JETS BEAT CANUCKS 3-1 FOR THIRD STRAIGHT WIN</h2>Cole Perfetti sent the patrons attending the Winnipeg Jets’ fifth straight sellout crowd home happy.&nbsp;Meanwhile, as the fans chanted MVP! MVP! at Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck, the Winnipeg won its third straight game and pulled three points ahead of the Washington Capitals in the race for the President’s Trophy.&nbsp;Thanks to the brilliance of Hellebuyck and a goal by Perfetti that will be talked about for a long time, the Jets beat the desperate Vancouver Canucks 3-1 to improve to 51-19-4.&nbsp;Now, with 106 points, the Jets have pulled three points ahead of Washington for first overall. The Capitals fell 8-5 to the Buffalo Sabres in Washington and are now 47-17-9.&nbsp;Meanwhile, the Jets are also six points ahead of Dallas in the race for first in the Western Conference.&nbsp;With the win, the Jets still have the best home record in the NHL – 28-6-4. Meanwhile, Hellebuyck leads the NHL with 43 wins, and is now only two wins away from breaking his own franchise record for wins in a season. He had 44 in 2017-18.&nbsp;Meanwhile, Mark Scheifele extended his point streak to five games and Kyle Connor scored his 38th goals of the campaign. &nbsp;&nbsp;It was a big bounce back win against a Canucks team fighting for a playoff berth. On March 18, the Canucks whipped the Jets 6-2 in Vancouver.&nbsp;“We remembered what they did to us when we played in their barn a couple of weeks ago and we had a sour taste in our mouths,” said Mason Appleton, who scored the winning goal and was the game’s first star. “We’re a resilient team. This was a full effort for 60-minutes tonight.”&nbsp;The opening period was typical of a Jets afternoon game. It was mostly lethargic, the Jets got nothing from a one-minute two-man advantage, had a number of scoring chances and shot wide and gave up a goal to the Canucks, late in the period.&nbsp;At 18:55 Tyler Myers sent Pius Suter in alone on Hellebuyck and he beat the Jets goaltender high to the stick side and Vancouver, who really did nothing for the entire period, took a 1-0 lead into the intermission. Now, the goal was allowed although Suter was clearly offside. The Jets challenged the call, but the geniuses in Toronto who sit in front of the monitors were looking at something else and didn’t see that Suter was a foot offside. As a result, the goal counted and Winnipeg was assessed a minor penalty for delay of game that would carry over to the seond period.&nbsp;The Jets outshot the visitors 9-6 in the first and won 52.9 per cent of the faceoffs but they simply were not engaged around the Canucks net.&nbsp;In the second period, the crowd sat quietly as virtually nothing happened for the first nine minutes. Sold out Canada Life Centre was eerily silent until Mark Scheifele hit Kyle Connor in full flight across centre ice. Connor flew into the Canucks zone and fired a low, hard wrister that went between the legs of Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko and suddenly the game was tied. More importantly, the crowd woke up.&nbsp;It was Connor’s 38th goal of the year and Scheifele’s 45th assist. Colin Miller also drew his 10th assist of the season.&nbsp;The period ended with the game tied at one apiece. Vancouver, who two power plays to none for the Jets, outshot Winnipeg 11-7 and were up 17-16 after two periods. After 40 minutes of play, the Jets had won 55 per cent of the faceoffs while Vancouver had outhit Winnipeg 34-15.&nbsp;In the third period, the Jets got the go-ahead goal from Mason Appleton, who scored the way he plays. Nikolaj Ehlers ripped a shot toward the net that Demko handled, but Adam Lowry worked to get the puck loose and with players falling all over the ice, Appleton crashed the net and banged home the loose puck in the crease. Lowry and Ehlers drew the assists as Winnipeg took a 2-1 lead at 6:24.&nbsp;Then at 12:11, Cole Perfetti scored a highlight-reel spectacular that nearly brought the house down. First, he made a move that might have broken both the ankles of Canucks defenceman Derek Forbort, who was beaten like a rented mule. Then Perfetti went in alone on Demko and roofed it, short-side, for the Jets third goal of the game. Jets fans will talking about that one for a while.&nbsp;In the end, the Jets not only won the game, they also outshot Vancouver 27-24 and won 51.7 per cent of the faceoffs. Vancouver outhit Winnipeg 50-24 -- an amazing number of hits in one game. Kiefer Sherwood led the way for Vancouver with 10 of them. Adam Lowry had five hits for Winnipeg.&nbsp;The Jets will now head out onto the road for three huge games away from the friendly confines of downtown Winnipeg. They play in L.A. on Tuesday, Las Vegas on Thursday and Salt Lake City on Saturday.&nbsp;Game time Tuesday night from Los Angeles is 9:30 p.m. CDT.

Hellebuyck Wins Again, Perfetti Scores Beauty as Jets Beat Canucks 3-1

<h2>Jets Down Devils for 4-0 home win</h2>RECAP:The Winnipeg Jets have hit the 50-win mark. They did so by way of a 4-0 final over the visiting New Jersey Devils on Friday.Starting the game with two quick goals, the Jets built upon their lead with two more second period tallies, sealing the deal on Connor Hellebuyck's seventh shutout of the season.He turned aside all 24 pucks that went his way on Friday.The seventh shutout was a career high for Hellebuyck in one season and a franchise high for the Jets/Thrashers. Alex Iafallo scored two goals, David Gustafsson got his first since late-January, while Mark Scheifele snapped a lengthy dry spell with his first in 10 games played (36th of the season). The Jets' penalty kill shut down New Jersey's offensive attack, while its well-rounded offence easily could have potted a few more goals, despite injuries to Gabe Vilardi, Rasmus Kupari and Neal Pionk.Next up for Winnipeg is the final test of the four-game homestand. That game will feature the Vancouver Canucks on Sunday afternoon. Puck drop is set for 2:00 PM central time.

<h2>EHLERS BRILLIANT OT GOAL SENDS JETS OVER CAPS AND INTO PLAYOFFS</h2>The Winnipeg Jets clinched a playoff berth.&nbsp;And Nikolaj Ehlers was the hero.&nbsp;Tuesday night at a sold-out Canada Life Centre, Ehlers scored on the only Jets’ shot in overtime as Winnipeg defeated the NHL’s first-place Washington Capitals 3-2 in an OT thriller. It was a playoff atmosphere from start to finish with the two top teams in professional hockey going head-to-head. There were big hits, plenty of nastiness, great goaltending, another historic Alex Ovechkin goal and an overtime outcome.&nbsp;All in all, it was one of the great games of the season.&nbsp;“This place was rocking with two first-place teams going at it,” said Mason Appleton, who scored the Jets second goal of the game. “Obviously, when you have the first-place team in the East and the first-place team in the West, it’s going to be a great game and (Ehlers’) goal was nice.”&nbsp;Not to make too much of an issue out of it, but the Jets got the win without the team’s No. 1 rightwinger Gabriel Vilardi and the team’s No. 2 defenceman Neal Pionk, who were both out of the lineup with injuries. It was a gutsy victory as the Jets improved to 49-19-4, one point behind the 47-16-9 Capitals in the NHL’s overall standings.&nbsp;The Jets also pulled eight points ahead of Dallas in the race for first in the West. The Jets are 7-3-0 in their last 10, 26-6-4 at home and are now 37-0-1 when leading after the second period. The Jets are 11-0-4 in overtime games this year as they swept the season series from Washington.Simply by finishing in a regulation tie, the Jets clinched a playoff berth. It's the seventh time in the last eight seasons, the Jets have reached the post-season, which is pretty good for the smallest market in the league.&nbsp;There will be a White Out this April.&nbsp;The Jets opened the scoring at 6:50 of the first period when Josh Morrissey drilled a shot from two strides over the Washington blueline that hit a Washington player in front and deflected past Caps goalie Logan Thompson. Mark Scheifele and Dylan DeMelo drew the assists and the Jets looked good.&nbsp;But with 40 seconds left in the period, Washington’s Andrew Mangiapane ripped a wrister high over the shoulder of Connor Hellebuyck and in a blink, the game was tied.&nbsp;The Jets outshot Washington 8-6 and played a solid period, but they had nothing to show for it.&nbsp;In the second period, the first six minutes looked like a prolonged Washington power play, and it seemed inevitable that they’d eventually score. But they didn’t. The Jets killed two penalties – off of two terrible calls – and then, with 12 seconds left in the period, Mason Appleton took a terrific pass from Nino Niederreiter and ripped a shot from the right circle over Thompson’s shoulder and under the bar to give the Jets a 2-1 lead.&nbsp;It was Appleton’s ninth goal of the season and his first goal in 13 games. Niederreiter, with his 18th assist and Cole Perfetti with his 30th drew the helpers.&nbsp;After two periods, the Jets led by a goal, but had been outshot 18-15, were down 2-1 in power play opportunities and Washington had won 57.1 per cent of the faceoffs. This looked a lot like the Jets 5-3 loss to Buffalo on Sunday, but after two periods, the Jets looked like Sunday’s Sabres. They were being beaten in every category, but they had a 2-1 lead.&nbsp;The third period was a high-paced back-and-forth between two great teams and for a while it looked like Jets would hold on to their one-goal lead. However, at the 16-minute mark, Ovechkin was left alone in the left circle and when the pass from Aliaksei Protas hit his stick, Ovie rifled a shot in the short-side corner to tie the game. It was his 36th of the season and the 889th of his career.&nbsp;However, it didn’t mean the Caps had a stranglehold on the outcome.&nbsp;In overtime, Washington won the faceoff and had control of the puck for the first minute and 20 seconds, but on a Caps line change, Ehlers was free down the right-wing and he took a perfect stretch pass off the boards from Dylan Samberg and went in, almost alone, on Thompson. At full speed, drilled a wrist shot under the bar to seal one of the biggest games of the season. Adam Lowry also drew an assist on Ehlers’ 24th goal of the year. Ehlers now has 24 goals and 61 points, which matches his point total from last year.&nbsp;The Caps outshot the Jets 29-25, won 53.8 per cent of the faceoffs and outhit Winnipeg 17-15. But the Jets had the advantage on the scoreboard.&nbsp;Ehlers, Appleton and Ovechkin were the three stars – in that order. Ehlers also had the best line of the night with the overtime winning goal, a plus-one rating, three shots, two hits and a takeaway in 17 minutes and 53 seconds of ice time. Luke Schenn led the Jets with six hits.&nbsp;Winnipeg will play again at home on Friday night against the New Jersey Devils. The starting time is 7:10 p.m.&nbsp;

Ehlers Scores Winner in OT as Jets Clinch a Playoff Berth

<h2>Jets drop to 48-19-4 with loss to buffalo</h2>RECAP:The Winnipeg Jets have fallen to 48-19-4 thanks to a strange loss to the Buffalo Sabres on Sunday afternoon.Despite dominating most facets of the game, Winnipeg came out on the bottom on Sunday, putting up just three goals to Buffalo's five. Snakebitten for the better part of the game, the Jets missed the net, hit a number of posts, while allowing fellow Manitoban James Reimer the opportunity to put on a show with some highlight reel-worthy stops at critical moments in the game. Eric Comrie did not play all too well in net, as he allowed four goals on 16 shots, while Reimer made 33 saves on the 36 pucks sent his way.Alongside Morweena's finest was Souris product Tyson Kozak, who scored for the Sabres in his first game back in his home province. Nino Niederreiter, Colin Miller and Nikolaj Ehlers each scored for Winnipeg, which will now play three more games at home on a four-game stand, including a test with the league-leading Washington Capitals on Tuesday night. HIGHLIGHTS:<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://x.com/CBrooksie84/status/1903889590244847818">https://x.com/CBrooksie84/status/1903889590244847818</a><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://x.com/CBrooksie84/status/1903896590013895054">https://x.com/CBrooksie84/status/1903896590013895054</a><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://x.com/CBrooksie84/status/1903900988811223458">https://x.com/CBrooksie84/status/1903900988811223458</a><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://x.com/CBrooksie84/status/1903930484167778430">https://x.com/CBrooksie84/status/1903930484167778430</a>QUOTEABLE:Colin Miller on Connor Clifton's hit on Nino Niederreiter:“You never want injuries. I didn’t love the hit on Nino there, but you’ve got to be aware when some guys are out there. It happens, it’s part of the game, so thankfully both of those guys are alright.”Tyson Kozak on playing in Winnipeg and scoring in front of family and friends:“Roughly I’d say there’s probably around 150 people waiting for me. It’s cool to have them all come out. A couple minor hockey teams from back home came, so it’s pretty cool. I haven’t played in this building before so it was a lot of fun.”“Kind of unreal. I couldn’t believe it actually happened. I was able to score in front of a bunch of friends and family, so it’s kind of a surreal moment for me.”WHAT’S NEXT:Winnipeg will stay at home for the week, as the Washington Capitals, New Jersey Devils and Vancouver Canucks come to town for games on Tuesday, Friday and Sunday, respectively.

Game On Recap: Winnipeg Jets 3 Buffalo Sabres 5

<h2>Moose Lose opener vs. abbotsford</h2>The Manitoba Moose fell to 22-34-1-3 on the season after dropping a relatively close 4-2 contest against the visiting Abbotsford Canucks on Friday.Coming off a 3-2 overtime win over Rockford on Wednesday, the Moose didn't quite have enough pop to extend the strong start of their week. Chris Driedger made 22 saves on the 26 pucks he faced in his home province, but it wasn't enough for Manitoba. The first period contained a wild sequence involving four separate goals in 2:26 of game time. Abbotsford scored two quick ones just 26 seconds apart making it 2-0 in the early going before the hosts responded with a looper from Axel Jonsson-Fjallby a minute-and-a-half later. But that was it for Manitoba's spark, as Tristan Nielsen potted his second of the period before the opening frame came to a close.Jonsson-Fjallby got his second of the game on a perfect redirection of a Dylan Coghlan point shot, making it just a one-goal game. The Canucks found the insurance marker on a late-game power play, with Ty Mueller sealing the deal on the 4-2 tally. "I thought we were good," said head coach Mark Morrison. "We made a couple mistakes in the first period that cost us. I think we outshot and out-chanced them in the first. We were solid for the whole hockey game. We couldn't find the back of the as much as we wanted to. I thought we needed a little bit more traffic, but I thought we played a solid hockey game. "The two clubs will do it all over again on Saturday evening, with puck drop from Canada Life Centre set for 6:00 PM central time.Members of the Game On photography staff are typically on site for Moose and Jets games, with a selection of their photos being shared below:*Photos courtesy of Steve Sasaki:<img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/_13i0569.jpg"><img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/_13i0665.jpg"><img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/_13i0749.jpg"><img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/_13i1330.jpg"><img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/_13i0703.jpg"><img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/_13i1259.jpg"><img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/_13i0897.jpg"><img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/_13i0901.jpg"><img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/_13i0879.jpg"><img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/_13i0960.jpg"><img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/_13i1211.jpg">

<h2>SAMBERG, THE BIG LINE AND HELLEBUYCK HAVE A HUGE NIGHT</h2>It was a test.&nbsp;The trade deadline had come and gone and all “the experts” claimed that the Dallas Stars, already a good hockey team, were significantly better with their moves at the deadline. For the NHL’s first-place Winnipeg Jets, Friday night’s game would be a regular-season indication as to their fitness for the post-season.The Jets 4-1 victory over the Stars was a clear indication that they not only passed the test, but were also ready to take on the toughest opponent come playoff time.<img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/go-1h0a9371.jpg">Kyle Connor scored a pair of goals and dished out an assist, Mark Scheifele had three assists and Connor Hellebuyck made 24 saves to improve to 39-9-3 on the season as the Jets improved to 46-17-4 and regained sole possession of first place in the NHL.“Obviously they’re a good team and it felt like playoff atmosphere right from the get-go. Thanks to all the fans,” said Scheifele, the game’s first star. “We played pretty play but we try to do the right things every night.”With the win, the Jets moved to 36-0-1 when leading after two periods. They’ve also held the opposition to only one goal per game in four of the last five games.<img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/go-1h0a8385.jpg">Right from the start, it was clear this was going to be an epic regular-season battle.&nbsp;Although they were outshot 9-6, the Jets played brilliantly in the first period. Especially the big line of Mark Scheifele, Gabriel Vilardi and Kyle Connor and, of course, goaltender Connor Hellebuyck.During the back-and-forth of the early going, Scheifele got loose in the Dallas zone, waited to make the right pass and hit defenceman Dylan Samberg with a little backhand flip pass. Samberg made no mistake drilling an 80-mile-per-hour wrist shot under the bar behind Dallas netminder Jake Oettinger. It was 1-0 Winnipeg on their third shot of the game. Scheifele and Connor drew the assists as Samberg, the Jets most improved player this season, scored his fifth of the season.The play was pretty even from that point on, even though both teams missed some excellent chances. However, it was the Jets who struck a second time.<img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/go-1h0a7297.jpg">With Scheifele and Vilardi battling for the puck in the Dallas corner, Scheifele finally got the biscuit to Connor who wristed one over Oettinger’s pad, just inside the post, and suddenly the Jets were ahead 2-0. For some reason, Vilardi didn’t credit for an assist, but Scheifele did, as Connor scored his 34th of the season.Despite being outshot, the Jets won 64.7 per cent of the faceoffs while outhitting Dallas 14-6. It was one of Winnipeg’s best periods of the season.The Jets took a 3-0 lead at the 6:43 mark of the second period when Scheifele got the pick to Josh Morrissey who played tic-tac-toe with Connor. After two quick passes, Connor moved to the slot and ripped a one-timer into the corner of the cage. It was Connor’s 35th goal, Morrissey’s 42nd assist and Scheifele’s 40th assist of the season and third point of the night.&nbsp;<img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/go-1h0a9800.jpg">Still, this period belonged to Dallas. The Stars won nearly every faceoff and outshot the Jets 8-4, but Hellebuyck was rock solid once again and the Jets defence did a great job clearing the front of the net. Winnipeg outhit Dallas 13-5 (27-11 overall) and went to the second intermission leading by three.In the third period, the Stars came out flying, controlled the play and peppered shots at the Jets net. It seemed for a while as if the Jets were just hanging on. But then, a tough forecheck turned into a gritty goal.Alex Iafallo got the puck in the Dallas zone and chipped it back to Dylan DeMelo at the point. With two Jets causing havoc in front of Oettinger, DeMelo fired a wrister at the front of the net that both Brandon Tanev and Morgan Barron tipped past the Dallas goalie. Suddenly it was 4-0 (four goals on 13 shots) and the Jets were in control. It was Barron’s fifth of the year as Tanev and DeMelo picked up the assists. For Tanev, it was his first point as a member of the Winnipeg Jets since 2019.<img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/go-1h0a7861.jpg">The Stars’ Mason Marchment made it 4-1 at 16:11 of the third but by then, it was over.The three stars were Scheifele, Connor and Vilardi in that order. It was a tremendous night at both ends of the rink for the big line.&nbsp;<img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/go-1h0a9662.jpg">Dallas outshot Winnipeg 25-22 and won 51.8 per cent of the faceoffs. The Jets outhit Dallas 35-17 as Luke Schenn led the way with seven hits. Dylan Samberg had the best line of the night: a goal, a point and plus one with three shots on goal, two hits and three blocked shots in 23 minutes and eight seconds of ice time.The first-place Jets will head back out on the road this week as they open a three-game West Coast road swing in Seattle on Sunday at 8 p.m. CDT.<img src="https://game-on-hockey.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/go-1h0a9954.jpg">

Certainly has history here in Winnipeg. He can get underneath the skin of the opposition. He's quick though. He's a lot quicker... I know he was fast but you can really see his quickness. He's an energy bunner there. He just gets going and you like to see that. Puts a lot of pressure on the opposition."Luke Schenn on his past week:“Yeah, it’s been a whirlwind of a week. That’s an understatement. Obviously you’re not expecting to get traded and then it was Pittsburgh, you fly out to meet the team in Vegas, get flipped the next morning, fly back to Nashville. It’s just been a crazy week. Then on top of that, it’s been about six days since I skated. So, that was a little bit nerve-racking. I mean I skated here a little bit yesterday, but it’s was almost like having a double 4 Nations break with the time off. It was nice to get the first one out of the way there, and I appreciate everyone welcoming me in here.”WHAT’S NEXT:Winnipeg will stay at home for the week, with the Dallas Stars making a Friday night stop at Canada Life Centre in a huge four-point game. The Jets will then hit the road for a three-game trek out west beginning on Sunday.

<h2>Jets lose at home to philly</h2>RECAP:The Winnipeg Jets have fallen to 42-15-4 on the season thanks to an uncharacteristic loss in extra time to the visiting Philadelphia Flyers. Having lost on Thursday night in Nashville, Winnipeg is actually streaking - in the wrong direction - with two-straight losses.Scoring the game's first goal on the stick of the red-hot Mark Scheifele, Winnipeg looked to take control and roll with the punches as the game wore on.However, that goal 10 minutes into the affair was the last that Winnipeg would score.The big, 6-foot-8 Ivan Fedotov stood in the way of another Jets' tally, turning aside 30 of the 31 shots he faced to pick up the win.Connor Hellebuyck made 31 stop on 32 shots, but ultimately lost the game in the shootout.Despite a strong overtime effort from the home club, Winnipeg was unable to get that coveted overtime winner, sending the team to its second shootout of the season, and first of the year at home.None of Scheifele, Kyle Connor or Gabe Vilardi could score in the mini game, while Matvei Michkov dazzled on his breakaway attempt, stealing the victory for Philadelphia. Next up is two days off for Winnipeg, before the team heads out on a four-game road trip through the Metropolitan Division.

I think his glove was just lucky to be there."Mark Scheifele on Logan Stanley Fighting Nic Deslauriers:“That was awesome. Fantastic for him. That’s one of the toughest guys in the league. That’s what Stan does, he’s a guys that will stick up for guys. He did it for me in Ottawa. He’s a guy who will lay it on the line and do anything for any guy on this team. Going up against a tough guy like him, that was awesome.”WHAT’S NEXT:The Jets will now head out on the road for four-straight games, making stops in New York, Philadelphia, New Jersey and Carolina before heading back home for a test with the New York Rangers on March 11.

<h2>Jets Do it again, beat sharks in overtime</h2>RECAP:The Winnipeg Jets needed all 60 minutes - and than some - on Monday evening, but walked away with their 10th-straight victory when all was said and done.When the dust settled, it was a 2-1 Winnipeg victory, despite the visiting San Jose Sharks leading the game 1-0 heading into the 59th minute. Josh Morrissey blasted home the game-tying goal with just 26 seconds left to play, before Mark Scheifele scored the overtime winner at the end of his period-opening shift. The goal was Scheifele's 329th career tally, moving him one goal ahead of Ilya Kovalchuk's franchise record of 328. He now sits first-place overall in goals scored for the Atlanta/Winnipeg franchise. Connor Hellebuyck allowed a first period goal but nothing else, picking up his 35th win of the season. The Jets will look to keep the streak alive when they hit the road for a back-to-back on Wednesday and Thursday in Ottawa and Nashville, respectively.

A kid from Kitchener, playing with the Kitchener Dutchman way back when I was 16, I never would have believed you. All you’ve got to do is trust in God’s plan and that’s what I’ve done. Obviously, I am very grateful for my family, the Winnipeg Jets organization. They were the ones who trusted in me. I just want to keep on playing well for them.”Josh Morrissey on Mark Scheifele's goal:“I’ve been thinking about that goal probably more than him. You know, I envisioned it giving him a backdoor tap-in and whatnot. Obviously for him to get that OT winner and get the record, what an accomplishment. What he means to the city, this organization, from basically day one that the Jets came back. The first pick, the things he’s done in this community, for the fan-base. I mean you saw the fans embrace him. It’s special. He’s one of my best friends. You know, so happy for him. He works so hard. That’s a lot of goals, so it’s pretty impressive.”WHAT’S NEXT:The Jets will now head out on the road for two quick games, as they travel to Ottawa on Wednesday for a test with the Senators, before heading south to Nashville for the second leg of the back-to-back.

<h2>VILARDI SCORED TWICE AND CONNOR NOTCHED THE ONLY SHOOTOUT GOAL</h2>It took a shootout goal by Kyle Connor and the brilliance of Eric Comrie between the pipes, but the Winnipeg Jets have now won a franchise-high nine straight games.&nbsp;Saturday night in St. Louis, Gabriel Vilardi scored with 28 seconds left in regulation time, his second goal of the game, and then Connor scored the only goal of the shootout as the Jets beat the Blues 4-3.&nbsp;With the win, the Jets numbers during this remarkable 2024-25 season became even more eye-popping.&nbsp;1.&nbsp;&nbsp; The Jets became the first team in the NHL to win 40 games and remain in first place overall in the NHL with a record of 40-14-3.2.&nbsp;&nbsp; The Jets lead the Western Conference by nine points over the Dallas Stars.3.&nbsp;&nbsp; The Jets are first in the NHL in goals for with 206 and best in the league in goals allowed with just 137 – two fewer than the L.A. Kings who have played three fewer games.4.&nbsp;&nbsp; The Jets improved to 31-0-1 when leading after the second period and are still the last remaining team in the NHL that has yet to lose when leading after any intermission.5.&nbsp;&nbsp; The Jets are 9-1-0 in their last 10 and 12-2-0 in their last 14. They have not lost since Jan. 20, more than five weeks ago.&nbsp;On Saturday night, Nikolaj Ehlers scored his 18th goal of the season to open the scoring and then Vilardi scored his 25th and 26th and now has a good chance to give the Jets three 30-goal scorers this season.&nbsp;However, it was Vilardi’s incredible top-in in the final minute, shortly after the Blues had taken the lead on a power-play goal thanks to a ridiculous four-minute penalty (with 4:28 left in regulation time) against Neal Pionk in a game in which referees Kyle Rehman and Corey Syvret (again) did everything they possibly could to keep the Blues out of the penalty box. In fact, in the end, St. Louis was one-for-four on the power play while the Jets were zero-for-two.&nbsp;“I really liked our effort,” Winnipeg coach Scott Arniel told reporters in St. Louis after the game. “We knew St. Louis was in a hunt themselves. I liked the way we came out. It was a great first period and we did a lot of the right things. Even the start of the second.“I just mentioned to the team that was a game where a lot of different things went on and it’s those games late in the year that you need to get the two points, find a way to win. It might be a playoff game, same type of thing. We were down and found a way to come back. I’m just happy we came out on the right side of it.”&nbsp;Eric Comrie, who was sensational in the shootout, made 21 saves to get the win. The Jets played without Team Canada D-man Josh Morrissey who was still suffering from the illness that kept him out the championship game of the Four Nations Face-Off. Winnipegger Joel Hofer was the Blues’ hard-luck loser in goal.&nbsp;Cole Perfetti had two assists for Winnipeg while Kyle Connor and Mark Scheifele also dished out assists. Connor is now sixth in NHL scoring with 30 goals and 70 points while Scheifele is 12th on the list with 31 goals and 64 points. Vilardi moved up to 35th spot with 26 goals and 53 points.&nbsp;The first-place Jets returned home to Winnipeg right after the game and will face the San Jose Sharks at Canada Life Centre on Monday night. Game time is 6:30 p.m.&nbsp;
