Highlight Reel

HIGHLIGHT REEL

Jets 2 / Flyers 1 (SO)

Big picture

Little picture

The Jets finish January 4-8-1, but this win was huge for an injury-ravaged outfit, especially knowing that Dustin Byfuglien and Alex Burmistrov should be good to go Thursday in Tampa.

Game-breaker

Many candidates here, but Ondrej Pavelec's save on Scott Hartnell on a 2-on-1 with 8:38 left kept the Jets even with Philly at 1-1 and kept alive the notion of late-game dramatics.
