ST. PAUL, Minn. — The Winnipeg Jets look like could use a few days off.
Soundly outworked Saturday night by the Minnesota Wild through half a hockey game, the Jets tried clawing back but, ultimately, suffered a 4-1 defeat on the eve of their league-mandated bye week.
Winnipeg (26-13-7) dropped the second and third legs of a three-game road trip that began with promise Tuesday in Buffalo. But after clobbering the Sabres 7-4, the Jets fell 2-1 to the Chicago Blackhawks Friday and then failed to rebound 24 hours later.
