WINNIPEG, Manitoba -- You can excuse the Winnipeg Jets if they advance on the Colorado Avalanche crease brandishing pitchforks and flaming torches Saturday night at Bell MTS Place.
After the near-beheading of Connor Hellebuyck Thursday night at the hands of Vegas Golden Knights forward James Neal, you can excuse them if they're completely clueless about what constitutes goalie interference.
The Golden Knights scored just a couple of seconds after Neal's two-hander, on which he broke his stick in half, to take a 2-1 lead in a game they ultimately won 3-2 in overtime.
