Overview

  • Brent Burns and Martin Necas scored in the first period for Colorado, and Parker Kelly provided the winner with an early third-period tip.
  • Morgan Barron cut the deficit with a shorthanded goal late in the second, ending a Jets scoreless stretch of more than 120 minutes.

  • Colorado improved to 14-0-2 at Ball Arena and remains unbeaten in regulation at home, with Scott Wedgewood making 20 saves.
  • Winnipeg has dropped six of its past seven and is 3-9-1 on the road since early November, compounding a skid now at three straight losses.
