The City of Winnipeg may have planned a Santa Claus parade after today’s game, but the Jets beat the city to the punch and had a parade of goals in the second period to help give them a 5-2 win over the New Jersey Devils.
It’s the Jets fourth win in a row and they have won eight of their last ten games played. They now embark on a four-game road trip next week starting in Nashville on Monday.
How much did you enjoy today’s game? Mathieu Perreault, Matt Hendricks and Joel Armia: great line or the greatest line? Isn’t it nice to watch a third period with our team having a comfortable lead and not have to stress at all? Answer these questions and share other thoughts you may have in the comments below!

PLAYERS OF THE GAME
For New Jersey: Nico Hischier – 1 assist, 7 shots on goal. Led all Devils in shots and was dangerous all game long.
For Winnipeg: Mathieu Perreault – 1 goal, 1 assist and continues to look great in his return to the lineup. Turns out he, Armia and Hendricks may have some great chemistry. New 3rd line anyone?
