Now, overall numbers are skewed in the Jets favor on the powerplay. The Sabres actually kill penalties at a 90% clip at home, and Winnipeg is middle of the pack in road powerplay numbers. Predictably, Patrik Laine ripped a shot past Lehner on the man advantage. The goal was his 19th of the year and 100th career point.
Jack Eichel scored shortly thereafter on a delayed penalty, but it did not last long. Dustin Byfuglien scored nearly an identical goal to the one he had Thursday, minus the man advantage. One of my predictions came true!
