The Jets enter play Saturday four points behind the Los Angeles Kings for the second wild card into the Stanley Cup Playoffs from the Western Conference. Winnipeg defeated the St. Louis Blues 3-0 on Friday. "I think we're all feeling good now and we can kind of carry this," goalie Connor Hellebuyck said. Hellebuyck is expected to make his 10th straight start on Saturday. The Jets are 5-4-2 in the second of back-to-back games. "To be honest with you, I think we've been in that mode for a while," coach Paul Maurice said. "The game after the break was a bit of an aberration. We still put up five [goals] against [Minnesota], the best team in the Western Conference. We didn't have any of the rhythm that this game had. Everybody coming off the bench, that's what's good about these games. Higher pressure, higher intensity which means you have to have all four lines. We're on the right track with the style of game we're playing. It's going to be a lot more physical of a game [Saturday], I think, with the way [Colorado] played us the last few times." Winnipeg is 15-8-1 against Central Division opponents this season.
