Against Pittsburgh, Winnipeg’s offensive struggles in recent games reared their head again as they suffered a fourth straight defeat, scoring a total of three goals in that stretch. The Jets were outshot 12-8 in the opening period and trailed 1-0 on the scoreboard after 20 minutes of play. In the second period, Winnipeg was outshot by a 9-8 margin and outscored 2-0 to trail 3-0 at the second intermission. The third period saw the Jets with a 7-6 advantage in shots on goal but neither team was able to light the lamp, leaving them on the wrong end of a shutout loss. Connor Hellebuyck made 24 saves for the Jets, who were outshot 27-23, in the loss. He’s likely to be between the pipes again for this contest for Winnipeg.
