The Winnipeg Jets continue to run hot and cold of late, winning half of their games over the last stretch and managing to keep pace with the Nashville Predators with two games in hand and one more point.

With the injuries on defence, that’s probably about what should be expected in a year where the Jets haven’t quite been as dominant as last season, but are still the odds-on favourite to win the Central Division.

While the team has struggled a little bit offensively, at least in terms of consistently putting up goals, team captain Blake Wheeler has been on his hottest goal-scoring stretch in recent memory.
