Two-point effort in Boston
BOSTON — It may be cruel to note that Elias Lindholm is now without a five-on-five point in his last 13 games. The first-year Boston Bruin scored a short-handed goal and assisted on a power-play strike in the Bruins’ 6-2 loss to the Winnipeg Jets on Thursday. It was Lindholm’s fifth multi-point game with the Bruins.
The Bruins tied the game, oh so briefly, on Elias Lindholm's shorthanded goal 11 seconds into the third period before the Jets responded three times in five-plus minutes.
Boston's Mason Lohrei brings the puck right in front of the net, allowing Nikola Ehlers to poke in an easy goal for Winnipeg.
The Jets (35-14-3) enter Thursday night’s matchup as the league’s top team with 73 points (tied with the Washington Capitals), six points clear of Edmonton and Vegas for the top spot in the Western Conference. They have won four straight, including a 4-1 win over Montreal on Tuesday night, which kicked off a three-game Eastern road trip.
The Winnipeg Jets will look to continue their winning ways on Saturday when they take on the Washington Capitals. To kick off February, the Jets will be the top team in the NHL, taking on the #2 team, in Washington, on Hockey Night in Canada. That game should be all types of fun as we near the break.
Through 53 games this season, the Boston Bruins have played all but two of the National Hockey League's other 31 squads.
