#SeattleKraken made moves with Wennberg trade and Eberle signings but remained intact post-trade deadline. Despite solid defense, they lost 3-0 to #NHLJets. Jets improved to 40-17-5 with goals from Scheifele, Lowry, and Ehlers.
Been a while since Pius Suter last scored, but don’t let the pedestrian goal totals fool you, he’s been a tremendous addition to the top-six ever since he got moved up the lineup. #Canucks
Been a while since Pius Suter last scored, but don’t let the pedestrian goal totals fool you, he’s been a tremenfoud addition to the top-six ever since he got moved up the lineup. #Canucks
5-0 #Canucks as Pius Suter scores with 4:54 to go
#NHLJets going to the power play as Brock Boeser is called for tripping. 9:18 to go in the third period.
Casey DeSmith has faced 3 shots. Thought maybe the Jets would test the guy coming in cold. Thought wrong. May face some here on first Winnipeg PP of the night
Neal Pionk is having none of this night. He's hitting everything.
Connor-Scheifele-Ehlers back together. Jets looking for a spark they didn't get in the second with the line shuffle.
The third period is underway and the #NHLJets have gone back to Connor-Scheifele-Ehlers to try and spark the offence.
through 40 minutes, shot attempts are 24-5 & shots are 15-2 for #Canucks at 5-on-5 with Jets leading scorer Mark Scheifele on the ice
Jets will look better with Toffoli and Vilardi back but this has been a rough one for'em. Canucks with pretty much complete domination through 40 minutes.
solid follow up to #Canucks best period of season. Demko made big save off Scheifele breakaway early. After that, Nux really didn't give Jets much at all
2nd period comes to a close and #NHLJets are down 4-0 to #Canucks SOG 29-14 for Vancouver.
Winnipeg's second period lines in Vancouver: Niederreiter-Scheifele-Appleton Namestnikov-Monahan-Ehlers Connor-Lowry-Iafallo But before the Jets can get anything going, Elias Pettersson scores on a power play to make it 4-0. This is a miserable night for Winnipeg.
#NHLJets bring out the line blender in the second period and it has a solid effect. Connor-Lowry-Iafallo Niederreiter-Scheifele-Appleton Ehlers-Monahan-Namestnikov Fourth line remains intact.
An early twist of the line blender for #NHLJets to start the second period: Niederreiter-Scheifele-Appleton
Gotta be Winnipeg's worst period of the season. A dog's breakfast from start to finish. Vancouver leads 3-0. They put up 20 shots.
The first period comes to a close and the #NHLJets face a 3-0 deficit. Excellent period from the #Canucks who defended well and generated 21 shots compared to 9 for Winnipeg.
That's all three of Winnipeg's top lines that Vancouver has lit up now. This time it's in transition after Mason Appleton nearly made it 2-1 but four Jets were caught deep. The Jets are reeling, down 3-0, outshot 18-8, just blitzed by the Canucks.
Nothing short of a statement period for the #Canucks. Jets going to have to gather themselves quickly or the rout is going to be on.
Mason Appleton is absolutely robbed by Thatcher Demko and #Canucks race back the other way and Phil Di Giuseppe buries a pass from Teddy Blueger. #NHLJets trail 3-0.
Canucks are all over the Jets, 3-0
really liked #Canucks breakout on 2-0 goal. A couple of quick passes to elude forecheck. Through neutral zone with speed. Suter to net. Hoglander with the shot through traffic. Textbook stuff https://t.co/uJsJ7ekxPK
Hoglander. 2-0. Can't blame the top line for that one. Just a put on net that isn't handled well by Hellebuyck, who was screened.
Make that two greasy goals by the Canucks involving Hoglander, getting pucks and traffic to the net
Nils Hoglander handcuffed the entire offensive zone. Connor Hellebuyck looked twisted in knots by the time the puck went in. 2-0.
#Canucks up 2-0 as Nils Hoglander's shot slips past Connor Hellebuyck.
#NHLJets top line getting outattempted 12-1 right now. They gave up the goal, too.
Greasy goal from Miller with a spot of flash from Hoglander
1-0 Canucks, via JT Miller. Vancouver outbattles Winnipeg in a rebound scramble beside Connor Hellebuyck. A few too many Jets on scene to be satisfied with that #NHLJets outcome.
That's special from Hoglander
The trade deadline passed by Friday afternoon and with it, the Seattle Kraken sent a message to its fanbase, NHL, and players who wondered what could be happening next. https://t.co/KYm2wOlrgM
The Kraken were kept mostly intact at the trade deadline. Then, they went out and lost a huge game with playoff implications in which they “didn’t have a lot of energy” against Winnipeg. https://t.co/DU0sIpbZYg #SEAKraken #NHL
Jets shut out Kraken, get 7th win in past 9 ⤵️ https://t.co/Vk5DiSccIE
Here's the story from Seattle, where the #NHLJets blanked the @SeattleKraken 3-0 in a defensive gem on a day they improved the roster before the deadline: https://t.co/8PMCOma8lv

With the team remaining mostly intact at the deadline, and a promising possible postseason push ahead, the Kraken fell silent in a 3-0 loss to Winnipeg on Friday night. Via @GeoffBakerTIMES: https://t.co/3MFQD7XDGf
#NHLJets continue their third-period dominance. They're +31 now in third-period goal scoring now. That's tops in the NHL. They win 3-0 in Seattle, avenging Tuesday's loss. Vancouver on deck tomorrow night. Tremendous game by Dylan Samberg tonight.
Trade winds by day and blade wins by night. Winnipeg adds Tyler Toffoli and Colin Miller, then shuts Seattle out 3-0 for its 40th win of the season without them in the lineup. Mark Scheifele, Adam Lowry, and Nikolaj Ehlers with the goals. Laurent Brossoit with the shutout.
#NHLJets improve to 40-17-5 on the season with a 3-0 victory over @SeattleKraken on Friday. First shutout of season for Laurent Brossoit, who made 17 saves in a tidy defensive effort. Goals from Mark Scheifele, Adam Lowry and Nikolaj Ehlers. Jets face #Canucks on Saturday night.
Ehlers empty netter makes it 3-0 Winnipeg
The @NHLJets extend their lead to two! 🛩️ https://t.co/LRew3Rl1Cz
Make it 2-0 Jets with 8:32 to go as Winnipeg gets a couple of rebound chances that Adam Lowry finally converts on. #SEAKraken #NHL https://t.co/Z0jicUu1oa
Adam Lowry goes to the net and finds a rebound and has scored in consecutive games after a lengthy drought. 2-0 #NHLJets at 11:28 of the third period.
Winnipeg finally breaks the scoring ice with 12:45 to go in regulation. A failed clearing attempt leads to Mark Scheifele eventually finding himself in alone on Daccord. He hesitates just enough for Daccord to commit and then tucks puck behind him for 1-0 lead. #SEAKraken #NHL https://t.co/3femBAqnCL
Outstanding job by Josh Morrissey at the left point, he finds Mark Scheifele and it's 1-0 #NHLJets at 7:15 of the third period. Vladislav Namstnikov with the primary assist.
0-0 after two in Seattle. #SeaKraken with the edge is offensive volume and quality with large credit to solid defense keeping the Jets high in the zone. https://t.co/XiBvuAfHCq
Still no goals to speak of in this tightly contested tilt at Climate Pledge Arena. #NHLJets 0 @SeattleKraken 0. SOG 18-12 for Winnipeg so far.
Scoreless after a period. Jets had 9-8 edge in shots but both teams limited the really dangerous chances. Yanni Gourde had a potential 3-on-1 rush broken up late. #SEAKraken #NHL https://t.co/Caf4AOrgi6
#NHLJets 0 @SeattleKraken 0. SOG 9-8 for Winnipeg. Fast, fun period despite the lack of scoring. Nice sliding play by Jets D Dylan Samberg to pressure Yanni Gourde and break up a 3-on-1 rush.
Joey Daccord back in goal for #SEAKraken tonight. Plus they get to miss Connor Hellebuyck. Laurent Brossoit in goal for Jets. #NHL https://t.co/FycfJnylUL
Kraken trade deadline has come and gone. This is the team the rest of the way. Here is where they stand in our weekly power rankings. https://t.co/IEoc369k4l #SEAKraken #NHL
#SeaKraken done for the day. Wennberg trade and Eberle signings their two moves. Team remains in the post-season hunt.
The noon NHL trade deadline came and went and the Kraken roster remained intact, an indication the front office is ready to see where this late playoff push goes. Via @KateShefte https://t.co/3V8fGcIDPR
