A Must Win Game Today For The Winnipeg Jets

05/20/2018 at 7:10am EDT

from Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun,

The moment of truth has arrived for the Winnipeg Jets.

After dropping three consecutive games to the Vegas Golden Knights, the Jets find themselves in a position that seemed inconceivable given the way the series opener of the Western Conference final went.

Those three goals in fewer than eight minutes in the first period seem like a distant memory right now.

Since roaring out of the gate with an offensive explosion, the Jets are having great difficulty getting pucks past Golden Knights goalie Marc-Andre Fleury, who has been downright brilliant between the pipes.

Creating high-quality scoring chances has not been an issue for the Jets, but finding a way to finish them is another story entirely.

Remember, today's game is an afternoon affair, with puck drop just after 3:00pm ET today.
