GAME 76: JETS 5 - FLAMES 2
This was the weird Jets game where the top-six was performing quite well, then coach Rick Bowness swapped Nik Ehlers and Kyle Connor, the team started to collapse, and then they swapped back and everything went well again.
It was very funny, in the odd sense, because really the difference of Connor and Ehlers on the top line is not that significant.
The Jets weren’t exactly great in transition this game, even when the game was going well for them; however, they were way worse during their 81-55-13 // 27-23-91 portion. They were able to create a lot of high quality scoring chances, many of them were properly assisted on which dramatically increases conversion rates.
