Article content continued The older guard is here because of their experience, charged with insulating the next wave of young players. It’s only one game and crap happens — Jets stars Mark Scheifele, Kyle Connor and Blake Wheeler found their legs and hands as the game wore on — but the point is, the defeat shouldn’t all land on the feet of the Senators’ youngsters. You have to have guys that commit to it,” Senators coach D.J. Smith said of the final minutes of the third period.
Nikolaj Ehlers scored in overtime after the Winnipeg Jets twice rallied from a two-goal deficit en route to a 4-3 win over the Ottawa Senators on Tuesday night. Ehlers scored at 2:20 of overtime, moments after Winnipeg goalie Laurent Brossoit made a nice stop against Drake Batherson. Josh Morrissey tied it with 1:17 left in regulation with Brossoit on the bench for the extra attacker.
Every time the Winnipeg Jets play the Ottawa Senators, I’ve come to expect at least one stupid thing per game. The Jets seem to have extremely weird outings against Ottawa, and after a bit of a paddling at the hands of the Leafs, I had reservations about this match-up. What followed can only be described as absolute comedy that somehow ended in a Jets win.
