The Jets and Wild sure preseason’ed the heck out of that preseason game.
Both teams combined for a total of 538 penalties* in what was a rather pedestrian affair at Bell MTS Place to kick off the 2017 preseason schedule for both clubs.
For what it’s worth, the Minnesota Wild win 3-2 in a shootout.
(* = Rough estimate, was probably a little less than that)
Editors Note: This year on Jetsnation.ca, we’re going to give you “two recaps” so to speak.. The first (this one) will be more of an instant, facts and numbers recap where we give you the scoring summary, post GIFs of all the goals scored in the night and share some charts from the good people over at HockeyStats.ca. Later tonight will be a “takeaway recap” where we’ll go more into detail about the game and give our thoughts and impressions from it.
As always we value your feedback, so let us know what you like and don’t like! – Art
