Jets Struggle To Contain The Canucks; Lose 6-2
The Winnipeg Jets had their three-game win streak snapped, losing 6-2 to the Vancouver Canucks.
Loose defending plagued the Jets in the first period, allowing three goals on nine shots. Drew O'Connor broke the ice for the Canucks, recording his ninth goal of the season. Nikolaj Ehlers answered back with 22nd before Brock Boeser and Nils Hoglander scored two unanswered goals.
Alex Iafallo brought the Jets within a goal, scoring his 11th of the season. Luke Schenn picked up his first point as a Jet, recording a secondary assist. Boeser would record his second goal of the game to regain the Canucks' two-goal advantage before Pius Suter would extend the lead further, once again exposing lackadaisical coverage by the Jets.
The Canucks made life difficult for the Jets in the third period, limiting them to just eight shots in the third period. Suter would add his second game into the Jets empty net.
It was a difficult night for Connor Hellebuyck, allowing five goals on 21 shots.Kevin Lankinen was stellar for the Canucks, turning away 19 of the 21 shots the Jets threw at him.
The Jets will be back in action on Thursday when they travel to take on the Edmonton Oilers.
