BOSTON -The lead bounced back and forth between the Winnipeg Jets and Boston Bruins all night on Thursday, but ultimately two Bruins goals 33 seconds apart in the third period left a sour taste in the Jets mouths to end the road trip.
The 5-4 loss was the only setback the Jets (24-17-4) suffered on the four-game trip, finishing with five of a possible eight points.
"We were about 10 minutes away from a great road trip. I feel like we kind of let one get away," said Andrew Copp.
"Overall it was a pretty good road trip. There are some things that we did well that we want to take moving forward. But there are some things we have to clean up if we want to be a contender."
