Comrie nets shutout, Jets beat Hurricanes 3-0 for seventh straight win
WINNIPEG — Eric Comrie made 29 saves and the Winnipeg Jets’ potent power play struck for a pair of goals in a 3-0 victory Tuesday over the Carolina Hurricanes that extended their win streak to seven games.
It was the longtime backup goalie’s first shutout of the season and third of his career. His last one was March 25, 2023, when he played for the Buffalo Sabres in a victory over the New York Islanders.
Nino Niederreiter and Neal Pionk both scored with the man advantage, giving the Jets an NHL-best 51 power-play goals this season.
Rasmus Kupari also scored and Niederreiter added an assist for Winnipeg in front of 13,802 fans at Canada Life Centre.
