Jets Take Care of Business With 4-2 Win Over Devils

Winnipeg got the job done at home, and the scoreboard tells the story: a 4-2 win over New Jersey. Four goals is a healthy total, and the Jets didn't need a fireworks display to get there. They needed more goals than the Devils, and they got them.

New Jersey put two on the board, so they weren't shut out, and that counts for something when you're chasing a result on the road. But two goals usually isn't enough to win a hockey game, and tonight it wasn't. The Devils will look at that total and see a night where the finishing didn't match their effort on the scoresheet.

Winnipeg collects two points and keeps its home-ice momentum rolling. Confidence in your own building matters, and a multi-goal win at home is the kind of result that feeds a team's belief over a long season.

No pick was published on this one, so there's no ticket to grade. Take the result, take the two points, and move on to the next puck drop. Let the detail-hunters argue about the rest.
