Kyle Connor's Hat Trick Leads Winnipeg Jets to Victory

Kyle Connor scored a hat trick and added one assist in leading the Jets to a 6-3 victory over the Nashville Predators on Thursday night. Cole Perfetti, Mason Appleton and Brenden Dillon added the others for Winnipeg , which extended its winning streak to three games.

“Samberg does it every night. He doesn’t get enough love for that,” Connor said. “It’s a skill, too ... to get in that lane and anticipate that shot. He’s pretty good at that.” Appleton opened the scoring just 4:04 into the first period, with his shot deflecting off Predators defenceman Tyson Barrie and in.

“I thought we played really well in the first period,” Forsberg said. “Then, all of a sudden, they get two early goals early in the second and a lot of penalties. That was definitely the theme of the night. It’s one of those games that could have gone either way, but it just goes the other way.”
