In what ended up being more of a defensive battle than what was expected the Blues ended up overcoming the white out in Winnipeg to bring home a win. The game was a low scoring affair and that would definitely be something that can continue in the game here as these teams have turned into a massive powerhouse when it comes to the defense. What else could prove to be a problem for the Jets is the face they need to stay out of the penalty box as they had 6 minutes in the box total in the opening game compared to the Blues 2 minutes. Something else that could make a difference in this game was the fact that the Jets are a more physically aggressive team here. The Jets were able to get a total of 36 hits on the day, but the Blues ended up getting a total of 21 hits. So this is definitely something the Blues need to work on if they are going to be able to pull even in this game here.
When it came to the totals for the shots the Blues had 26 shots. The Jets ended up with 25. The face off totals for the teams were a dead even heat as both teams ended up getting a total of 31 wins on the draws in the opening game of the series.
