Jets Soar to Newark: Winnipeg Jets Set for Showdown with New Jersey Devils at Prudential Center

As the Winnipeg Jets prepare for their upcoming encounter with the New Jersey Devils, fans are eager to see if they can rebound from a recent shutout loss. The game is set to take place at the Prudential Center in Newark, a venue that has witnessed many intense battles on ice.

The Jets' performance in their last few outings presents a mixed bag. A shutout defeat against the Vancouver Canucks saw them unable to find the back of the net despite 22 shots on goal and maintaining an even strength throughout. This was compounded by a faceoff win percentage of just 44 percent and failing to capitalize on their lone powerplay opportunity.

However, hope springs eternal as prior to this setback, they secured a victory over the Seattle Kraken with an impressive third-period rally scoring three goals. Their goaltending was solid, saving all 17 shots faced and achieving an evenstrength save percentage of 100 percent. The faceoff win rate stood at an even 50 percent during this match.

In contrast, their encounter before that ended in defeat despite scoring three goals against Seattle's Kraken; they allowed four goals while playing shorthanded. The team showed resilience but ultimately fell short as their powerplay opportunities failed to yield results.

Looking ahead, fans should watch for how well the Jets can control faceoffs and utilize any powerplay chances against the Devils. With recent fluctuations in performance metrics like shooting percentages and faceoff wins, it's crucial for Winnipeg's players to sharpen these aspects of their game.

The upcoming game is scheduled for March 21st at 23:00 UTC (7:00 PM local time) at Prudential Center in Newark, NJ. Fans can catch all the action live on ESPN+ via internet streaming or tune into MSGSN on television.
