About the Jets
Coming off a 13th home win of the season Thursday night, 1-0 in OT against L.A….Jets have risen to 18-14-5 after being 5-9-3 in mid-November…The franchises all-time record against Toronto is 16-22-5… LW Evander Kane had Thursdays OT winner, his team-leading 18th goal of the season and his third game-winner… Jets had three important players on the sidelines Thursday, all injured. That included D Dustin Byfuglien and C Bryan Little, both out again tonight, and C Jim Slater, who could be a game-time decision against Toronto.
About the Leafs
The Leafs, rolling into Winnipeg off two losses, including Thursdays in overtime in Raleigh, aren’t exactly a picture of health either. They have six players on the injured reserve list, including defencemen Mike Komisarek and John-Michael Liles, as well as forwards Colby Armstrong, Matthew Lombardi and former Moose Mike Brown…RW Phil Kessel, hot early, still leads the Leafs in goals (20), points (42) and game-winners (3) through 36 games played…Since a 9-3-1 start, the Leafs have bobbed along at less than .500, now 18-14-5….Toronto, still with a top-5 power play, has only four advantage goals in the last 10 games. The Leafs’ penalty-killing is 30th and last in the NHL at 72.5 per cent.
