With this clear success, the Jets responded to the 3-1 defeat they suffered at home to the Flames eight days earlier. The Jets set the tone right from the start. They led 2:0 at the midway point of the game and Gabriel Vilardi gave the current No. 2 in the current championship a 4:1 lead at the start of the third period. The Canadian was the man of the match with two goals and two assists. Niederreiter was not involved in the Jets' five successful goals.
Philipp Kurashev celebrated his anniversary with a defeat. The Chicago Blackhawks lost 2:4 to the Minnesota Wild with the Bern native, who played his 300th game in regular seasons in the NHL. The home defeat became apparent early on.
After seven minutes, the second-worst team in the league in terms of points was already 2-0 down. After conceding another goal in the second period, the Blackhawks were able to reduce the deficit to 2:3 at the start of the third period, but the Wild made it all clear with a goal into the empty net with 102 seconds remaining.
