Illegal Curve Hockey

We\'ve got two hours of Jets talk coming your way as we discuss the state of the NHL club of Winnipeg. And we will not have to discuss another loss by the home team after they ended their 11-game winless streak with a big 5-1 win over the Kings. We reflect on this, look ahead to the game tomorrow against the Devils and more.

It has been almost a month since the Jets last won a hockey game but they snapped their 11-game winless streak with a big five goal outburst to defeat the Kings by a final score of 5-1. They last won a game back on December 13th which was also a 5-1 victory. Lots of goal droughts also got snapped.

The Jets blow another lead as the Oilers comeback to defeat Winnipeg by a final score of 4-3. Make it 11 straight for Winnipeg without a victory (0-7-4). And it\'s another one goal loss (0-11-5).

Vegas with the comeback win defeating Winnipeg 4-3 in OT as the Jets lose another one goal game. That\'s a tough one as the winless streak hits 10 games for the home team (0-6-4).

The Jets are the bottom team in the NHL and to speak about his hockey team we heard from Winnipeg GM Kevin Cheveldayoff as he provided his midseason assessment of his hockey club.

As you might note listening, we had a bit of a snafu (just after the 18 minute mark) so we lost a couple of questions but did capture the final eight minutes of his availability.

Make it nine straight losses as the Jets lose 4-2 to the Senators to end the road trip. They are 0-6-3 during this run. Too many penalties and when your PK has slid the way the Jets have that is not a recipe for success. After starting the season 9-3-0 the Jets have gone 6-18-4 which has them sitting solidly in the last spot in the entire NHL.

Two hours of Jets talk as the boys discuss the state of the NHL club of Winnipeg who are mired in an eight-game (0-5-3) losing streak and sit at the bottom of the NHL standings. They also get you set up for tonight\'s game against the Senators in Ottawa and look at what\'s happening at the World Juniors in Minnesota.

Jets blow 2-0, 3-1, 4-1 and 5-4 leads to lose 6-5 to the Leafs in regulation which means they’ve now lost eight straight games (0-5-3) as they start 2026 in absolutely disheartening fashion with this loss in Toronto.

The late push does not materialize into a tying goal and the Jets drop another game, this time 2-1 in Motor City versus Detroit. With the loss, the Jets suffered their 19th defeat of the season which comes in game 38, when last year it came in game 71 on March 23rd.

The Jets performed admirably, but in a results oriented business, all they have to show for tonight's effort is another notch in the loss column, dropping a 3-1 decision to EDM. With the loss they remain tied with the Hawks for last place in the NHL.
