Post-game recap to follow on illegalcurve.com
Moose too loose and scrambly in the D zone which gives the Canucks a shot to add to their lead which is just what they do.
Lead now 3-1 for the home team.
Samuel Fagemo with an excellent chance to tie the game but a great stop by Ty Young.
Quite the tilt in Abbotsford as Tyson Empey unloads in this one.
Manitoba gets one back in the middle frame as captain Mason Shaw gets his 15th of the season.
That ties him for the team lead for goals.
A rare road PK goal against the Moose as the Canucks made it 2-0 on this one.
Surprised this didnβt get called back for goalie interference.
But thatβs how the shutout streak for Thomas Milic came to an end after two games in the 1st period.
This might be the most disconnected Moose power play of the season.
Which means theyβll likely score but Dear Mama.
Spoiler Alert: they did not.

Jets assistant coach Marty Johnston gave his assessment of Isak RosΓ©n and Jacob Bryson after having seen them play a couple of games for Winnipeg.
RosΓ©n - mentioned skating ability, shot, his pace of play.
Bryson - good skater, moves puck well

I suspect it starts with roster construction philosophy. They got slower and the system they implement doesnβt really give them a way to play that style but at a slower pace.
And all the injuries definitely took a toll.
ββ¦those are the games you got to win to catch up. Weβre not further from it but weβre not closer either..β
Jets winger Gustav Nyquist on failing to gain ground on Kraken who lost in regulation.
Recognizes that they have only so many games left.

ββ¦they show up for us every night, and hopefully tomorrow night we can give them a much better performance to cheer about.β
Jets winger Cole Perfetti understood fan reaction to last nightβs result.

After scoring five goals in four games, Jets prospect Alfons Freij (2024 2nd) was held off the scoresheet for next three.
Yesterday, he had a goal & assist for TimrΓ₯ IK.
The left-shot Dman has 10 points (6G 4A) in 40 SHL games. Although 8 of the 10 have come in his last eight games (6G 2A).
Big performance for Jets goalie prospect Thomas Milic as he leads the Moose to a 4-0 win in his home province.
Gives him back-to-back shutouts in consecutive games. First to do it since Mikhail Berdin in 2019-20.
Manitoba wins third straight.

Isaak Phillips is hot scoring his fourth goal in the last eight games for the Moose (7th of season) as he put the cherry on top making it 4-0.
Jets prospects Fabrian Wagner (first assist of season) & Jacob Julien with apples.
Honourable mention to Dylan Anhorn who starts play with steal.
The Moose score a power play goal. Second one in the last three games. Not too shabby.
Jets prospect Nikita Chibrikov finishes this play off for his fourth of the season.
Second assist of the game for fellow prospect Brayden Yager. Dylan Anhorn with the other assist.
Tyrel Bauer, gets the @illegalcurve.bsky.social bump (almost) with a great chance for his second goal of the season but he gets robbed.
Heads up play by his D partner Ashton Sautner to sneakily get him that puck.
Moose continued to try to add to their lead in the middle frame.
Jets prospect Nikita Chibrikov rang this one off the post.
Back-to-back games with a goal for Parker Ford as his sixth of the season provides some insurance for the Moose making it a 2-0 game.
Heβs riding a four game points streak (2G 2A).
Assists to Phil Di Giuseppe (against his old team) and Isaak Phillips.
Walker Duehr with the alley-oop pass to Jets prospect Brayden Yager who goes in on a 2 on 1 with Samuel Fagemo.
The Saskatoon product eventually gets the puck over and the Swedish winger takes the team goal lead with his 15th to make it 1-0 for the Moose.
Catching up on the Moose game now that Jets game and my IC post-game responsibilities are done.
It appears AHL club of Manitoba (unlike their parent club) made adjustment in the 1st intermission.
Turned being outshot 11-3 but 0-0 after 20 to 16-13 and 4-0 for them with 5 to go.
The Jets get outclassed by the Ducks losing 4-1 and being outshot 34-13.
Dear Mama.
Time to share your thoughts with Ez and @icdave.bsky.social on the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show.
Come be part of the discussion.

Not saying the farm team is emulating their parent club but Moose started game being outshot 9-1 by the Canucks.
Abbotsford has had two power plays this period.
Jets goalie prospect Thomas Milic making all the stops for Manitoba.
Jets getting outshot 20-5 in the 2nd period is not ideal.
Also being outscored 3-1 in that period is also not optimal.
Lots to discuss after the game with Ez and I on the @illegalcurve.bsky.social Post-Game Show.

Three goals in just under two minutes have swung this game solidly in the Ducks favour.
Two goals in 14 seconds for the Ducks just 1:20 after the Jets opened the scoring here in the 2nd has dampened the mood here at CLC.
#NHLJets
Jets have woken up this period as Morgan Barron gets his 10th of the year to make it 1-0.
And Elias Salomonsson has his first NHL assist.
There was a murmur in the building after this chance for Isak RosΓ©n.
It was a nice play by Gustav Nyquist to get him the puck.
