First period The Jets have come out with a strong start. Kyle Connor tested Samuel Montembeault 10 seconds in, and the puck has mostly been in Montreal’s zone since. The second shot Montembeault faces sees the goaltender slide off his angle as the puck comes in, and it just glances off his side and wide. Josh Anderson goes off for high-sticking (there have been a lot of those calls this season) and the Jets get the first power play. Montembeault is lunging all over the place t...

The Huskers played 36 minutes of really excellent basketball. They had a very good game plan and executed it well.
