(Chris O'Meara / The Associated Press)TAMPA BAY — The Winnipeg Jets are feeling pretty positive about their game these days, but they face a tall task Tuesday night as they try to keep the good times rolling against the NHL’s best team.
Tampa Bay has laid waste to the rest of the league, posting an incredible 50-12-4 record that has them on pace to be one of the best regular-season squads in history. That includes a dominant 27-5-2 record in their own backyard at Amalie Arena.
