Clash at Canadian Tire Centre: Winnipeg Jets Set to Face Ottawa Senators

As the Winnipeg Jets prepare to take on the Ottawa Senators at the Canadian Tire Centre, fans are eager to see if their team can turn around recent performance trends. The Jets have had a challenging stretch in their last three games, with two losses and only one win against the Arizona Coyotes.

In their most recent game against the Toronto Maple Leafs, despite a strong effort with 38 shots on goal and winning 58 percent of faceoffs, they were outscored and lost 4-1. The powerplay unit managed to convert once out of four opportunities but struggled in even-strength situations where they couldn't find the back of the net.

The game prior saw a similar outcome when facing off against the Montreal Canadiens. The Jets put up 26 shots and again excelled in faceoff wins at nearly 53 percent but ultimately fell short with a final score of 4-1. Their powerplay did manage to capitalize on one of two chances, yet it wasn't enough to secure victory.

However, there is a glimmer of hope from their home game win over Arizona Coyotes where they scored twice from just 24 shots and dominated faceoffs with an impressive win percentage over 63 percent. This victory showcased what the team is capable of when executing effectively.

Looking ahead, fans can anticipate that faceoff proficiency will continue to be crucial for gaining possession and creating scoring opportunities. Additionally, improving shot conversion during even-strength play will be essential for success against Ottawa.

The upcoming match is scheduled for January 22nd at Canadian Tire Centre in Ottawa. Fans can catch all the action on ESPN+ or tune into SN1, CITY, SNW or TVAS2 networks for international coverage.
