Like a comfy old sweater or a favourite pair of shoes, there’s something about the TLC line that has become such a good fit for the Winnipeg Jets.
When the going got tough Wednesday night against the Washington Capitals, Jets head coach Paul Maurice reunited the trio of Brandon Tanev, Adam Lowry and Andrew Copp. In addition to shutting down the Capitals’ potent top line, they contributed to the game-winning goal in the third period.
No surprise, then, that the band will remain together when the Jets (11-5-1) close out a four-game homestand tonight by welcoming the surging Buffalo Sabres (10-6-2) to Bell MTS Place.
