Jets top first NHL Power Rankings of the season: https://www.tsn.ca/nhl/winnipeg-jets-top-the-first-nhl-power-ranking-of-the-season-1.2192576

...there has been no better team early this season than the Winnipeg Jets, who sit first in our rankings. The Jets are the only undefeated team in the league (5-0-0) and their fans will be encouraged to hear their strong play looks sustainable.

Winnipeg ranks first in goal differential, per game and fifth in expected goal differential. The Jets boast the only power play clicking above 40 per cent, and Connor Hellebuyck is in Vezina-calibre form.

Awesome post! It's the end of the second period of the St. Louis game and after going down 0-1 in the first the Jets have come back with 3 in the second to lead 3-1. Kudos to this team, the players, and the coaches for coming out of the blocks ready to play NHL hockey at an elite level. I can't say enough about Adam Lowry and the leadership he is displaying and about Coach Arneil who is doing a masterful job behind the bench. Go Jets Go!

Jets win 3-2! The team is now 6-0 to start the season. Wow!

A really solid road win last night.

Perfetti is playing great!

[Jockitch]

Better result than I was anticipating. Well done Jets

[Pigskin]

Took us about 10 minutes to wake up. But, after that we looked very solid.

Not our best game of the year, but a good road win against a very quick Kraken team.

The Kraken were dangerous all night. I would have liked to see the Jets lock it down when they had a 3-1 lead in the third but the Kraken were full marks for forcing overtime. The OT was all Jets and with a delayed penalty call Nic Ehlers snipes the game winner.

Jets now 7-0. Franchise best start to the season.

Jets took over in middle frame but a couple of costly defensive zone errors in the third both ended up in the back of their net. But they never panicked and stuck to their game, which certainly speaks to character of this team this season.

Arniel and co. has them playing with a ton of resilience and it continues to result in wins. It also helps significantly having the best netminder in the game.

Yes and I love how they are supporting each other and are playing a heavy, puck support style of game. In the overtime once they got possession of the puck they drew a penalty by being aggressive in the Kraken end they pulled Hellebuyck, got an extra man out there (Ehlers) and they never gave up the puck until it was fished out of the back of the net.

Well said. Having Helley back there playing with quiet confidence is certainly contagious. He keeps the team on an even keel. The guy is a rock!

Apologies. I didn't filter that query very well. I've updated it with more relevant stats to this season.

[Pigskin]

Well, that's another road win to go 8 straight Ws to start the season. Lot's of giveaways, and a few two many penalties. However our PP and PK, have been outstanding. D also blocking a lot of shots.

[Jockitch]

Odd or rather "he'd rather have that one back" kinda goals on Comrie who otherwise was really solid
Speaking of odd ——- how about the bank off the back Jet goal
     That was a major Yahoo

The Flames really were competitive but YAY for our boys

[blue_gold_84]

The turnaround with special teams this season has been nothing short of spectacular.
