This victory was underpinned by an even strength strategy that saw them dominate despite being outplayed in faceoffs.

Against the Jets once more but on home ice this time, they emerged victorious with a scoreline of 5-1. Their power play was notably effective during this match, converting two opportunities into goals from just three shots - showcasing an efficient utilization of special teams.
