LAS VEGAS — The Golden Knights have lost two in a row. They lost to the Jets Thursday night 4-0.
Mark Scheifele and Adam Lowry got the Jets to an early 2-0 lead in the first period. Colin Miller added a goal in the second period to increase the lead to 3-0.
The Jets made a surprising decision to sit Connor Hellebuyck in this one for Eric Comrie. Comrie delivered a terrific shutout performance with 26 saves. Cole Perfetti added a goal in the third period to seal the victory for the Jets.
The loss by the Golden Knights decreased their lead in the Western Conference and in the Pacific Division. The Kings are only three points behind the Golden Knights in the Pacific Division race.
The Golden Knights head to Calgary to play the Flames on Saturday.

Vegas' top unit couldn't get set, the 2nd unit were in the zone for a while, but Comrie made a nice stick save on Theodore from distance#VegasBorn

Colin Miller is called for roughing for his high hit on Brandon Saad. #NHLJets PK will go to work 6:40 into the first period. #VegasBorn recently moved past the Jets and into top spot on the power play in the NHL.

Mark Scheifele, 1-0 Winnipeg.
Jets have been all over Vegas in the first period, they look faster, winning more battles #VegasBorn
— Vince Sapienza (@VinceSapienza) April 4, 2025
Winnipeg strikes first, a dandy of a pass from Alex Iafallo on the tape for Mark Scheifele back post who buries it.
1-Zip. Vegas has been getting worked this period.#VegasBorn | #GoJetsGo

This is why you need offensive pressure. 1-0 WPG #VegasBorn

Tough goal to give yo there and Vegas falls behind 2-0 as Adam Lowry finds an opening and slides it in to the net #vegasborn

#NHLJets D Luke Schenn has been a force in this game. Playing a physical style, but also calming things down when his team seems to be under pressure. Tough to overestimate the value of his return to the lineup this evening vs #VegasBorn

One-timer by Colin Miller and the #NHLJets 2nd unit cashes in to make it 3-0 at 11:53. The former #VegasBorn D-man scores against his old team and it's a rocket from the point.

Golden Knights continue their trend of bad hockey. They are getting embarrassed by Winnipeg and now losing 3-0. Puck management and no offense are big problems for team tonight. Looks like a losing streak is beginning ???? #VegasBorn

Jets are smothering the Knights in all three zones#VegasBorn

With 3:13 to go in the 2nd period, Brett Howden found Mark Stone alone in the slot and the #VegasBorn captain is absolutely robbed by Eric Comrie. Before the shift was over, Stone had another Grade A chance from the slot and he's stopped again.
— Ken Wiebe (@WiebesWorld) April 4, 2025
Comrie makes another Grade-A save, this time on Howden #VegasBorn

You all are useless. Dallas needed y'all, and you failed #VegasBorn
— Roy Kent (@Deshaunbh) April 4, 2025
If the #GoJetsGo at #VegasBorn margin holds, the evening will end with #GoKingsGo trailing Vegas by just 3 points with 7 games to play.
Vegas has a substantial, though not insurmountable, lead in the tiebreaker so the Gokden Knights would really have to come back to Los Angeles…

A lot of times in games like this you notice certain players on the opposing teams but my goodness Luke Schenn has been a Mack Truck tonight for Winnipeg. My goodness he’s been a force #vegasborn
