It was a play that likely went unnoticed to the casual viewer, especially given everything else that went down Saturday. The unselfish act by slumping scorer Patrik Laine commanded plenty of post-game respect inside the Winnipeg Jets locker-room.
The clock was ticking down in the Jets' playoff-clinching 5-0 victory over the Nashville Predators when Laine — stuck on 29 goals for 11 games and counting — got a perfect set-up from Kevin Hayes right in the slot.
