The Winnipeg Jets 3-1 victory against the New Jersey Devils at Prudential Center.

Jets get unexpected offense to defeat Devils

**Everyone who needed to lose did, thank jeebus. I call tonight a draw. If I had to choose between winning last night and winning against Anaheim or LA last week, I'd pick winning against Anaheim or LA again. They looked a little tired, maybe jetlagged, so I'm sure they'll be up for it again on Wednesday.

**why do devils fans wanna trade the entire roster after a loss but then come back and say we can beat anyone with this roster after a win? cmon guys get a grip. I saw all kinds of chances for goals that just were inches off and some times that just how it goes. Im really starting to see why zajac got the contract he did. Best player on the devils roster. he has great hands and is setting up guys every other play. He isnt a shooter but he cant make the other guys score after he sets them up.

**I guess the only positive thing is that the the Rangers lost so we're not going to lose any ground in the division. But still, we need more offense. Marty & Cory aren't going to get shutouts every game. Tonight was nothing but frustration. GG Jets

**The Rangers aren't the only ones we need to worry about. Aside from the Pens and maybe the Caps, everyone else has been pretty terrible so a good run from any team can push us down the standings quickly. Reading these comments, it sounds like the same old story since last season; playing well enough to win but being unable to finish. I still find it baffling how even with all the new forwards we have, this team still can't find a way to score more than one or two a game.

**you can have the best players in the world if your game plan is an easy read from the opposition then they will defend easily to prevent such great players to score. maybe we need some different strategies to bring home some goals.

**martyssbetter I am sorry you lost tonight, you sure seem choked over the whole thing. Brodeur played great as did the rest of your team, so stop trying to drag them through the mud with what you think the problem was. I for one enjoyed the game and not for a second did I think it would be a sure win for my team. That's what great hockey is, edge of the seat for 60 minutes.

**is deboer stupid? shneider shoulve played the 2nd goal was stupid. Why is Tedenby not in? hes been good when he played and has a goal, is fast, hustles and good with puck. ryder, brunner and harrold should be traded harrold is so unbelievabley weak

**We've played way better, especially recently. They didn't look sharp at all last night. Jets played a good road game and did what they needed to do to win. Good game, boys..

**we played ok to well not awesome though, pavelec did a great job, we could have won for some great opportunities missed by a wide margin like passes not on tape and wide open net with nobody to shoot the rebound overall the jets did what they needed to do to win, the devils didn't. well done jets.

**This team never wins the games they are supposed to win, and thats why we will likely fall out of contention again. We played great games in all 3 CA arenas, and we played a solid game tonight too, but lack of execution and Brodeur's blunder on that 7-hole goal to Kane cost us. We were all over WPG tonight, we were the better team tonight, but, just like last year, we cant find the back of the net when we need to. Disappointing doesnt come close to saying it all.

**Not even close, some guy named Scheifele scored which basically like letting Janssen score a goal against you. Kanes goal was nothing more than a "let me put this on net and see what happens" play, and thats what good teams do, they put the puck on net, but Brodeur getting screened by his own guy and the puck going under his arm were lucky. Not only that, but you were outshot, outhit, and almost gave up 2 SH goals in the second period. Pavelec played well, but NJD missed too many open nets to consider him the main reason we lost.

**Scheifele is what we call a rookie, one of those guys who's half the age of your two best players. You might here a little more about him over the next 20 years. He's had some success in Junior got 10 points in his last two games in the OHL final last year. He's transitioning to the NHL and like most rookies he's had some issues adjusting, with that being said he has the greatest offensive potential and skill set of any player on the Jets roster.

**you and i sir have very different definition of the word great, in california we simply did not turn up the only reason we have 4 points and neither brodeur or schneider are in jail right now is because robbing (may i say arm robbery) is not a crime. we played 6 mins in LA and 25 in anaheim, out of 120 that ain't much to consider this great plays.

**Thing is you got results in CA but they weren't "great" games by the Devils. I'd say the third period the Devils were all over the Jets tonight, some of that is a result of the score going into the third but still well played by the Devils. Some issues with the Devils are a combination of slow defensemen and getting caught flat footed on rushes, they didn't pay for it tonight however. Jets have their issues too, in particular the PP has not been productive but the 2-1's and and 3-2's we are giving up is unacceptable. Line on the year is something like 11 PP goals 4 or 5 shorthanders against.

**Ryder = Janssen minus the edge. The fact that he can snipe is a trivial attribute considering you never get 3 secs and a 3 meter radius to shoot, and unfortunately it seems like that's the only condition in which he can be of any threat.
