Winnipeg Jets' Mathieu Perreault, right, plays against the Carolina Hurricanes. Perreault is relishing the opportunity for a fresh start during the playoffs.
Mathieu Perreault is seizing the clean slate the Stanley Cup playoffs present.
The Winnipeg Jets forward has been stuck in a rut for weeks, unable to manufacture offence playing alongside centre Bryan Little and Joel Armia.
Perreault scored last Monday in Ottawa in the Jets' 6-5 triumph over the Senators, snapping a 19-game scoring drought. But the lone goal against goalie Craig Anderson and one assist March 25 at home against the Nashville Predators are the only points he's mustered during the final 23 games of the 2017-18 regular season.
