The Winnipeg Jets had a weekend to remember, grabbing all four crucial points they needed. Thanks to stellar performances from their goaltenders, the Jets secured victories against the Avalanche and the Blues.
Connor Hellebuyck was a wall on Saturday, and Eric Comrie followed suit on Sunday, guiding the team to a 3-2 win over the Blues. After a grueling stretch of three games in four days, the Jets are taking a well-deserved break today.
They'll be back in action tomorrow, wrapping up their eight-game homestand against the Predators.
Meanwhile, the Manitoba Moose wrapped up their four-game road trip with a strong showing in Calgary. Jets prospect Thomas Milic was the star of the game, stopping 44 of 46 shots and leading the Moose to a 4-2 victory. His performance highlights the depth of talent in the Jets' pipeline.
In the OHL, Jets prospects made their mark over the weekend. Kieron Walton, a 2024 sixth-round pick, matched his career high with his 38th goal of the season.
Jacob Cloutier, a 2025 seventh-rounder, netted his 19th goal, assisted by Dimian Zhilkin, the younger brother of Winnipeg prospect Danny Zhilkin. Their efforts contributed to Saginaw's win.
Additionally, Owen Martin, a 2025 third-round pick, had a standout game for Spokane with one goal and three assists.
Eric Comrie has been a model of consistency and composure for the Jets, winning his last five starts. His calm presence in the net has been a key factor in the team's recent success, and fans are eager to see if he can keep up this impressive form as the season progresses.
