Nikolaj Ehlers' Overtime Heroics Maintain Winnipeg Jets' Perfect Record (7-0) in Exciting Clash Against Seattle Kraken

Friday, October 25th, 2024

Nikolaj Ehlers clinched a 4-3 overtime victory for the Winnipeg Jets, ensuring their streak of games without a loss extended to seven against the Seattle Kraken.

Nino Niederreiter was at the forefront of the Jets' offense, netting two goals, and Gabriel Vilardi also scored. Connor Hellebuyck played a key role in the goal with 29 saves for Winnipeg.

Matty Beniers was a pivotal player for the Kraken, contributing two goals alongside an assist. He initially put Seattle in the lead, but then Niederreiter and Vilardi shifted the advantage to the Jets during the second period.

Jordan Eberle narrowed Seattle's gap with a goal as the game entered its final stages, and Beniers managed to draw the teams level with a goal late in the game.

A potential lead for the Kraken was nullified as an apparent goaltender interference led to a decision in favor of Winnipeg, who maintained their lead into overtime.

The Jets outshot their opponents in the concluding two periods and secured the win, taking their perfect record to seven victories. Looking ahead, Winnipeg will head to Calgary for their next game, while Seattle will prepare to host Carolina.
