Jets 4, Wild 1 as Winnipeg proves to be too much to handle for Minnesota

It looked like a playoff game through 10 minutes of the first period. Hell, you could say the whole first 20 minutes was a good, competitive period of hockey. The Wild came out and tried to set the physical tone, and even had an early power play to take a raucous BellMTS Place crowd out of the game. Minnesota got the first five shots on goal of the game. After the power play expired, the Jets came back with a fury. Devan Dubnyk was sharp again early, and often. Just like in Game 1, the first period ended in a scoreless tie.
