Winnipeg Jets make history


 

The Winnipeg Jets defeated the Colorado Avalanche 1-0 on Thursday to become the second team in NHL history to begin a season with at least 13 wins through their first 14 games.

The 2007-08 Ottawa Senators, who began that season 13-1 before their second loss, are the only other team to do so.

Connor Hellebuyck made 35 saves for his second consecutive shutout. The reigning Vezina Trophy winner now has three clean sheets on the season and 40 in his illustrious career.
