On defense, Adin Hill's goaltending skills were crucial for Vegas' success. Hill managed to save 22 out of 25 shots faced from Winnipeg, maintaining an impressive save percentage that kept his team ahead throughout most of the match.


The Jets displayed resilience by scoring once in each period but ultimately fell short despite outshooting Vegas with a total shot count of 25 to Vegas' 30 attempts at goal. Their powerplay opportunities did not translate into goals due to Vegas’ disciplined penalty kill units that effectively neutralized any advantage Winnipeg hoped to gain.
