The Winnipeg Jets look to snap their ten-game losing streak when facing off against an Edmonton Oilers team riding off the back of captain Connor McDavid's recent rampant hot streak.

Edmonton tied the game at 17:17 but Winnipeg scored two goals 40 seconds apart for a 3-1 lead. At 18:16, the Jets fourth line went to work, Tanner Pearson went behind the Oilers net, stopped and went the other direction before scoring on the wraparound for his fifth.

The Winnipeg Jets (15-22-5) hosted the Edmonton Oilers (22-16-6) on Thursday night (Jan. 8). The Jets came into this game scuffling, losing their last 10 games and 15 of their previous 17, including two to the Oilers.

My Golden Knights vs. Jets predictions and NHL picks call for Winnipeg to return to the win column tonight. The Winnipeg Jets are mired in a 3-14-4 funk, including nine consecutive losses, and they've fallen to the basement of the NHL with a league-low 34 points.

Sure enough. Hyman tied it eight minutes into the third period. Winnipeg took a penalty at 9:21. And Evan Bouchard’s power play goal at 10:37 put the Oilers in front for good. The Oilers had 18-straight shots from the 15-minute mark of the second period to the 15-minute mark of the third.

It seems it is simply not Winnipeg's year but if you're looking for signs the players or coaches have given up you won't find them.
