The Winnipeg Jets showcased a commanding offensive performance, defeating the Minnesota Wild 6-2 on Thursday night.

The team also maintained its strong historical performance against the Wild, boasting a 9-1-1 record in their last eleven meetings, including six straight wins on Minnesota's home ice.
