OTTAWA - It turns out playing the NHL's worst team wasn't enough to get the Winnipeg Jets out of their funk. In fact, it only sunk them deeper.
Two days after a dreadful performance in Montreal, the Jets came up with another stinker. The Ottawa Senators scored early and often and cruised to a 5-2 victory Saturday afternoon at Canadian Tire Centre.
Goalie Laurent Brossoit had a game to forget. The Jets backup, who has been outstanding this season, was shaky all day and would probably like the first four goals back. But he didn't get a lot of help from his teammates, who could only muster two goals against the Senators, who are not just dead-last in the standings but also in goals against per game.
