Jets seem up to the heavy lifting as Central road awaits

In the first month, the Winnipeg Jets’ season has consisted of two parts.

One was a six-game homestand against a run of difficult opponents. Result: 3-2-1.

Winnipeg Jets' Andrew Ladd (16) celebrates his goal with teammates Toby Enstrom (39) and Blake Wheeler (26) during second period NHL hockey action, in Ottawa, on Thursday.

The other element has been road games, consisting of two four-game trips. Each was book-ended with back-to-backs, with a pair of days off between those back-to-backs. Result: 5-2-1.

Considering the sum of those parts, it’s fair to say the Jets have already proven capable of handling some heavy lifting.
