On Jan. 23, the Winnipeg Jets dropped their fourth straight game to the Pittsburgh Penguins, losing 3-2 in a shootout. Once again, the Jets should’ve locked that game up, and yet, they fell just a few inches short.
Between allowing two goals in nine seconds, hitting several posts and some questionable decisions from the referees, the Jets just simply couldn’t finish the job. But, I suppose we must move on and focus on this upcoming clash against the Florida Panthers. 
Looking at my bets from last Sunday, I went 2-for-6 on the night. A nice little rebound after missing 18 straight bets. Let’s see the Jets can upset the Panthers and I can get us back winning some money.
