WINNIPEG - Special teams has often been a weapon for the Winnipeg Jets this season. On Saturday night however, it was the Edmonton Oilers flexing their special teams' muscle.
The Jets (27-15-3) gave up two power play goals for the first time since Jan. 26 as they dropped a 3-0 decision to the Oilers in the first game of a five-game home stand.
"I don't know that we were where we needed to be to test them as well as we'd like to test them. I didn't think we had a lot going on up front offensively," said Jets head coach Paul Maurice.
"I didn't think we had that sharpness off transition to get into holes to make plays."
