Well, we knew the Winnipeg Jets could pull away from teams in a hurry. They just kind of didn’t do it very often in the early going.
But now? They’re surging up the leaderboards. The Jets are now in sole possession of second place in their division, just one point behind the Nashville Predators, who have played one more game than the Jets.
The team is now fourth overall in points, and every team ahead of them has played that extra game. That week off in Helsinki is to thank for that. Honestly, with the way the team is playing now compared to then?
