Game Highlights
The Jets' performance was nothing short of spectacular, with goals evenly distributed across the periods - one in the first and second each and two in the third. Their offensive strategy was well-executed with a total of 35 shots on goal. Defensively, they were just as impressive; Connor Hellebuyck's goaltending was flawless with 25 saves, maintaining a perfect save percentage throughout the game.

Morrissey assisted twice while also leading by example defensively; his plus-minus rating of +3 was among the highest in this match.
Player Performances
Several other players also made noteworthy contributions to this win. Morgan Barron and Nino Niederreiter each added a goal to their names, contributing to the team's comprehensive win. Barron's shot accuracy stood out as he converted one of his three attempts into a goal.
On defense aside from Morrissey’s contribution, Neal Pionk and Dylan DeMelo played crucial roles without necessarily reflecting on scoresheet but ensuring stability at back allowing forwards more freedom to attack which clearly paid off given outcome.
