The Winnipeg Jets dominated the Boston Bruins with an 8-1 victory on Tuesday night, led by Mark Scheifele’s two goals and an assist. Other goal scorers for the Jets included Nikita Chibrikov, Mason Appleton, Alex Iafallo, Gabriel Vilardi, Kyle Connor, and Vladislav Namestnikov. David Pastrnak scored the lone goal for the Bruins, whose four-game winning streak came to an end.
Scheifele’s performance extended his home point streak to 13 games, with a total of 20 points in that span. The Jets capitalized on power plays, scoring three goals with the man advantage. Connor Hellebuyck made 23 saves for Winnipeg, while Jeremy Swayman stopped 27 shots for Boston.
Former Bruins defenseman Kevin Shattenkirk also made headlines by announcing his retirement after 14 NHL seasons. The Jets were energized by the play of Chibrikov, who drew an early penalty and contributed to the team’s success.
Next up, the Bruins will visit the Seattle Kraken on Thursday, while the Jets will host the Vegas Golden Knights. Overall, the Jets’ dominant performance against the Bruins showcased their offensive prowess and ability to capitalize on scoring opportunities.
