WINNIPEG — Josh Morrissey had just sent Bell MTS Place into a tizzy after ripping the overtime winner under the glove of Cam Talbot, and then the defenceman pointed out a little something about his Winnipeg Jets. “I think we still haven’t found our absolute best game,” Morrissey said, shoeless and from beneath the brim of a Jets ball cap, following a 5-4 win over the visiting Edmonton Oilers. “We had high aspirations for ourselves, and we wanted to come in and build off last season.” Well, maybe these Jets aren’t feeling like they’re at their finest just yet, but they sure are still finding ways to win, just like they did Thursday, and even

You’ve got to say it, this is a feisty Oilers club, a trait that — all by itself — marks a major improvement in Edmonton. But it’s also thin on the back end, a manpower deficit that came home to roost in the third period Thursday night.

Back in October, the Oilers rallied down three goals to tie things up in the third and beat the Jets 5-4 in overtime. Tonight the Jets kind of flipped the script a tad. Sure, there was still a blown lead of two goals in the second, but a great third period got them a tie and then Josh Morrissey’s blast got by Talbot for a 5-4 overtime win. FIRST PERIOD The game starts off a bit slow as both teams almost seemed to play a bit over-cautious and not wanting to give either team boasting stand out offenses the first great scoring chance of the game. The Jets though do make a mistake with a turnover in their own end that ends up giving the Oilers the first goal of the game. A bad turnover leads to a goal that Hellebuyck would maybe want another chance at. 1-0 Oilers. pic.twitter.com/Cg0uVQTGKt
