When the Winnipeg Jets scored in OT to win Game 2 by a score of 1-0, the hockey world was lit on fire. It put them up 2-0 in the a series many had projected to be a clean Edmonton Oilers sweep.
…and then came along Game 3.
The Edmonton Oilers went up early and eventually held a 4-1 lead with only half a period to go. There was a bit of a feeling that we may be witnessing the TSN turning point of the series, as the Oilers simply looked like they had found themselves after two dud games.
Mathieu Perreault scored to make it 4-2, and then a goal from Blake Wheeler brought it to within one. Seconds later, Josh Morrisey tied the game.
Jets fans were feeling… well…
Yep. The momentum had fully swung to Winnipeg, and it didn’t take too long for the Jets to score in overtime. Pure glee from Jets fans, absolute devastation from Oilers fans.
