A more realistic point of view is that Winnipeg could run the table to the same .707 points percentage that placed them No. 1 in the league last season and still fall short of 90 points. The Jets will be sellers at the trade deadline, even if they stop short of the “trade every UFA” fire sale that fans may prefer.

The Winnipeg Jets (23-26-9) came out of the Olympic break with a heartbreaking 5-4 overtime road loss to the Anaheim Ducks (32-23-3). The Jets had a 3-1 lead in the third period but let up three unanswered goals to put themselves in a 4-3 hole.

Anaheim earned its third straight win on Wednesday with a 6-5 comeback victory over Edmonton. In a game they never led until the final 74 seconds of regulation, Cutter Gauthier scored the game winner which gave head coach Joel Quenneville his 1,000th regular season victory.

Beckett Sennecke and Chris Kreider team up to score the decisive goal as the Ducks beat the Winnipeg Jets for their 11th win in 13 games.

The Winnipeg Jets announced Friday that they have placed forward Nino Niederreiter on injured reserve, retroactive to February 18. Niederreiter, 33, has eight goals and 19 points in 55 games with the Jets this season.
