Perfetti Sets Up Two in Winnipeg's 6-4 Loss at Tampa

Cole Perfetti had a productive night in a losing cause: two assists, both at even strength, in 17:26 of ice time as the Jets fell 6-4 to the Lightning in Tampa.

He finished plus 2 on a night his team gave up six. He put three shots on goal, two at even strength and one on the power play, and added two hits and one blocked shot over 19 shifts. He also had one giveaway.

His ice time ranked eighth among the 18 Winnipeg skaters and fourth among the team's 12 forwards. It was a bit under his season average of 18.8 minutes a game.

The two assists lift his season line to 6 goals and 5 assists in 13 games. He has not scored in this game, but he is still shooting well this season, with six goals on 38 shots.

For Winnipeg, now 4-5-3 and holding the sixth wild-card spot, this was another loss, with the team's goal difference at minus eight. Perfetti's night was one of the better individual lines on the Jets' side of it.
