Jets Player To Watch
#28 – Jack Roslovic – Center
You’ll be in good company keeping an eye on Jack Roslovic, as if overnight it seems the rest of the league has realized what a gem we have on our hands. Roslovic is currently sitting at 20 on TSN’s Trade Bait list with no place to go but up after Saturday’s game which saw him net his first NHL hat-trick. Roslovic was moved up to cover for Nik Ehlers after an injury last month and has really come into his own playing in that slot, grabbing 6 points in the last five games alone.
Last Jets Game
With a final score of 9-3, the Jets absolutely demolished the Anaheim Ducks on Saturday and it was fun! The re-watchable factor is huge on this game, especially for any fans who lived through the 2015 playoff series with the Ducks. This game had it all, a new franchise record for goals scored within a period, Jack Roslovic’s first NHL hat-trick and an arena quacking at the opposing team. Goals rained in from Copp, Wheeler, Little, Lemieux, Myers and Roslovic with the hat-trick. Within the first period, the Ducks had marked their third straight loss.
