WINNIPEG — Mathieu Perreault scored on the power play and added an assist to help the Winnipeg Jets defeat the Minnesota Wild 4-1 on Thursday for their first win of the pre-season.

The Jets tease basement bloggers across the internet. Tonight’s projected lines are undoubtedly a merciless tease by the Winnipeg Jets coaching staff. Mathieu Perreault centering Kyle Connor and Alexander Burmistrov. Connor Hellebuyck playing the entire game. Mark Stuart and Ben Chiarot together again. Oh.
