Consecutive wins are reason enough for the Pittsburgh Penguins to feel optimistic. A matchup with the Winnipeg Jets is another.
The Penguins look to continue their dominance of the Jets as they go for their longest winning streak in seven weeks Sunday night.
Pittsburgh (17-14-3) had dropped seven of eight before entering the holiday break with a 5-2 win over Columbus on Monday. The Penguins picked up where they left off Saturday, outshooting Minnesota 27-12 through two periods en route to a 3-1 road victory.
The Penguins haven't won three in a row since a season-high six-game streak from Oct.
