Greer, and Sam Reinhart scored for the Panthers, with goalie Sergei Bobrovsky making 21 saves. The Jets pressured the Panthers in their zone throughout the game, bouncing back from a previous 5-0 loss to Florida.

The Panthers put up a fight, killing off a two-minute, five-on-three power play for the Jets early in the second period. Winnipeg’s record now stands at 16-3 as they look ahead to their next game against the Chicago Blackhawks. The Panthers will also be on the road, visiting Chicago on Thursday night.
