Vegas next in Western final after Jets stun Preds in Game 7

TERESA M. WALKER (AP Sports Writer)The Associated Press

The young Winnipeg Jets have grown up fast this postseason, so quickly that now they are headed to the first Western Conference final in their short history after knocking off the NHL's best team in the regular season. Tyler Myers and Paul Stastny scored 2:06 apart in the first period, and the Jets stunned the Nashville Predators 5-1 on Thursday night in their first Game 7 - continuing an amazing run for a team swept in its previous two playoff appearances. ''The telling stat for me in this series is we played four games in here and never lost in regulation against the best team in the league,'' Jets coach Paul Maurice said.
