Jets OK with Losing!

Leading 4-3 with 10:25 left in the game, the Jets lost the game by giving up an even strenght Ottawa goal to tie the game and then an Ottawa power play goal at the 13:45 mark of the third period giving the Senators the win.

Jets #29 Johnny Oduya has this to say post game via the Winnipeg Free Press, "We played pretty good tonight," said Jets defenceman Johnny Oduya, who was sitting in the penalty box when Smith was allowed to cruise into the slot and fire the winner past Jets goalie Ondrej Pavelec. "But if we don’t close it down, they’re good enough to come back and they did."

If losing the lead in the third period is playing pretty good, then Jets  chances of getting to a playoff spot are slim to none.


Andrew Ladd was a -4 for the game, Stuart, Wellwood and Andropov at -2.


The Toronto Sun calls it a "Squandered Opportunity", can't agree more.


Coach Noel in the Winnipeg Free Press is dissappointed  "To tell you I'm disappointed would be putting it mildly," began Noel. "I didn't think we played very intelligently. We didn't play, certainly, with our minds. We had some energy but I thought it was a poor game in a lot of areas.
