Video: Jets' Nik Ehlers Scores OT Winner, Puts Oilers on the Brink
The Winnipeg Jets have surprised us all taking a 3-0 series lead against the Edmonton Oilers. Game 3's hero was Nik Ehlers whose overtime winner capped off an amazing comeback for the Jets.
Considering how inconsistent the Jets were down the stretch and how well the Oilers played them during the season, not many people gave the Jets a chance. But the Oilers weaknesses have been exposed this series so far, with no right-handed center to win big draws on the one side of the rink, and Mike Smith not making all the timely saves his team needs. If the Oilers get swept, anything will be on the table this offseason.
As for the Jets, they look to finish things off on Monday night and sweep away the Oil. Welcome back Nik Ehlers:
