While Friday night was all about fun at the Skills Competition, it was back to work on Saturday for the Winnipeg Jets, and work they did.
"It was a good practice, good pace. It's something we haven't been able to do a lot lately with our schedule," said Bryan Little. "It was nice to get out there and work on things today, and we looked pretty good doing it. It's a positive sign."
The 45-minute skate finished with special teams work, following a tough night against Florida that saw the team go 0-for-2 on the man advantage. In addition, the Jets allowed three goals on the penalty kill in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win.
The Jets have scored one power play goal in the last 14 opportunities - a span of five games. Patrik Laine continues to lead the team in power play goals with seven, and says simplicity is the key to getting back on track, starting with Sunday's game against the Colorado Avalanche.
