On Halloween night in St. Paul, the Jets came into the Xcel Energy Center ready to go from the opening face-off, the Wild, not so much. Lethargic play for the first 41 minutes put the Wild into a 2-0 hole that could have been much deeper. The Wild did eventually come alive in the 3rd with a goal by Luke Kunin, but Connor Hellebuyck delivered a composed and effective performance to hold off a late flurry from the Wild, giving the Jets a 2-1 victory. Tonight the Jets walked away with the full-size Milky Way, and the Wild were left with a box of raisins.
