Took a decent while for the Jets to slow down the Wild enough. Maybe they just got tired. Either way, they started pulling even in the last 30 minutes of the game, and keeping them from the multiple scoring chances against. The Jets lost far too many puck battles. I'll forgive them for playing their third game in four nights. Hopefully they get some time to rest soon. All hail Hellebuyck.
Helly kept us in it absolutely.
Keep it up! But give Comrie his games too.
A rested Helly is not a rusty Helly..
Shout out to the whole team for keep the comeback rolling and great four lines..
That pressure is a formidable variable against the best the NHL can offer..
Oh wait..we are the best the NHL can offer!

Tale of two halves. Jets stunk out the joint the first half and Helle saved their bacon, but we upped our game and played well the second half.

Going to need a more consistent effort the rest of the trip. We get buried if we start that badly again.
Agreed, you can't start games like this, but I don't think this team will get burred very often. Most teams would have folded their tent early, but we stuck around and eventually wrestled away the game.

The Fleury-Pionk duo had a very rough start but got better as the game went on. I don't think we'll see that pairing for too much longer though.

Yup, it's what good teams do. Nice to gain some separation on the teams chasing us. Obvious 4 point game for us against Minny, Colorado got shredded, and Dallas lost.

good win overall with how we played the second half of that game, helle was strong early on and kept us in it, wild should feel stupid for having 2 guys go after ai which turned the momentum of the game, out of town scoreboard was also kind, this was pretty much game 7 of a long ass road trip the rest are going to be a grind as well so we will need helle, so much for that 4 game losing streak that somebody was willing to bet on...
