Blake Wheeler Pushes The Jets Past Arizona
2 years agoWinnipeg Jets right wing Blake Wheeler came up with a big goal in Sunday's 2-1 victory against Arizona, tilting a tight contest in Winnipeg's favor with the game-winning goal 16:45 into the second period. He scored in a second consecutive game and now has 11 markers for the whole season. Wheeler, who recently missed nine games after undergoing surgery for a ruptured testicle, has added 19 assists in 35 outings. He has been one of the most consistent scorers in the league for many years and Wheeler is still going strong even at 36. If he can up his pace just a little bit, the veteran winger would average at least 0.90 points per game for an eighth consecutive season.
