Tyler Toffoli heard the fans roar and it pumped him up. Toffoli scored his first two goals since being traded to the Winnipeg Jets and Laurent Brossoit made 21 saves for his second shutout of the season in a 6-0 victory over the Anaheim Ducks on Friday. “Definitely a special moment and, obviously, nice to get my first one here and, hopefully, keep rolling,” said Toffoli, who was playing his third game since the Jets acquired him from the New Jersey Devils on NHL trade deadline day. “I should have had four or five there by the end of it,” said Toffoli, who's up to 28 goals and 46 points in 64 games this season.
The Winnipeg Jets' Mark Scheifele (55), Josh Morrissey (44), Kyle Connor (81) and Dylan DeMelo (2) celebrate after Connor's goal during the first period of their game against the Ducks on Friday night in Winnipeg, Manitoba. The Winnipeg Jets' Brenden Dillon (5) defends against the Ducks' Jakob Silfverberg (33) during the first period on Friday night in Winnipeg, Manitoba.
This article is part of our Yahoo DFS Hockey series. Thursday was packed and Saturday is stuffed, so as you can deduce from that, Friday is a light night for the NHL. Laurent Brossoit, WPG vs. ANA ($23): The Jets can afford to give Connor Hellebuyck some days off with a playoff spot effectively locked up, and with Brossoit being as good as any backup this year. Brossoit has a 2.11 GAA and .924 save percentage in 17 appearances.
