SAN JOSE Custom Arizona Coyotes Jerseys , Calif. (AP) — This may have been the most unusual of Nikolaj Ehlers‘ four career hat tricks.It didn’t make it any less satisfying.Ehlers snapped a tie with 3:07 to go and then completed the three-goal night when he was credited with a score after getting pulled down with San Jose’s net empty, sealing a 5-3 victory for the Winnipeg Jets on Thursday.“The two first ones were almost empty-netters and the third one the puck doesn’t even go into the net,” Ehlers said. “But we got the two points. My line mates made some pretty great plays there. It still feels good.”Ehlers scored in the first period following a bad bounce off the boards that left Martin Jones out of position and then knocked in the game-winner after Blake Wheeler drew Jones out of the net on a wraparound. Ehlers took the pass in the slot and knocked it past Joe Pavelski for the goal.The final score came after Pavelski brought him down with 1:00 remaining, leading to the automatic goal because the Sharks had pulled the goalie. It gave Ehlers 14 goals in his past 22 games, including a second hat trick after he recorded one Nov. 29 against Chicago.“(Ehlers) has a knack to put the puck in the net,” said Wheeler, who assisted on all three of Ehlers’ goals. “Obviously an incredibly dynamic player. He’s doing a good job of being patient, jumping in the holes at the right time and banging them in.”Mason Appleton got his first career goal and Dustin Byfuglien also scored to help the Jets win for the sixth time in seven games. Connor Hellebuyck made 41 saves.Evander Kane had a goal and an assist against his former team and Joe Thornton moved into 10th place all-time in assists for the Sharks, who had won five in a row. Pavelski and Joonas Donskoi also scored, and Jones made 19 saves.“This might have been our best game in the last six games and it was the one we lost,” coach Peter DeBoer said. “We had a good effort — some unfortunate bounces.”It was an action-packed first period that featured five goals, five power plays www.officialbruinsproonline.com , a fight between Barclay Goodrow and Brendan Lemieux, and a handful of big saves.After the teams traded penalties in the opening 40 seconds, the Jets struck first during 4-on-4 play when Byfuglien stripped Brent Burns near the blue line and skated in for the breakaway goal 51 seconds into the game.But in a sign of what was to come, the Sharks answered just 45 seconds later when Thornton forced a turnover that led to an odd-man rush that Kane converted for his first goal in six games against his original team. Thornton’s 1,040th assist tied Marcel Dionne for 10th place all-time.San Jose then took the lead nine seconds after Tyler Myers was called for interference, with Kevin Labanc’s shot from the circle hitting Pavelski’s pants on the way into the net. Pavelski’s 22nd goal in the 36th game of the season equaled his total from all of last season.The Jets responded with two more goals in the next 2:17, starting with Ehlers’ first of the night. Nic Petan then set up Appleton for his first career goal to make it 3-2, and that’s where the game stood after Hellebuyck made a big save on Timo Meier and Burns hit the post on the power play in the final two minutes of the period.The second wasn’t quite as frenzied, although Jones did rob Ehlers late in the period before the Sharks tied it with 5.3 seconds left when Donskoi deflected a pass from Kane into the net.“Tonight was a heavyweight game for us,” said Sharks defenseman Erik Karlsson, who extended his point streak to seven games with an assist. “We wanted to this one. But unfortunately they came away with it. We expect to be one of the top teams. Today we showed it in bits and pieces.”NOTES: Donskoi has 100 career points. … Petan suited up for the Jets after missing the previous 10 games as a healthy scratch, taking the place of Adam Lowry.UP NEXTJets: Visit Vancouver on Saturday.Sharks: Host Los Angeles on Saturday. For all the good things the Nashville Predators did last season to win the Presidents’ Trophy Boston Bruins T-Shirts Authentic , there was one nagging problem, which they’ve yet to solve in the first three games of the 2018-19 season.The Predators can’t stay out of the penalty box, and it came back to bite them Tuesday night in a 3-0 loss to Calgary that spoiled their home opener. Continued penalty issues could spell doom on Thursday night when they host the Winnipeg Jets in the teams’ first meeting since a riveting Western Conference semifinal last spring.After playing a reasonably clean game with just three minors and one shorthanded situation in the season opener on Oct. 4 at the New York Rangers, Nashville (2-1-0) drew five minors and had to kill off four power plays in a 4-3 win Saturday night at the New York Islanders.Article continues below ...The Predators then took three minors in the first 25 minutes Tuesday night, and the Flames converted two of those into goals to set the tone. Forced into chase mode the rest of the way, Nashville couldn’t solve up-and-down goalie Mike Smith, who was on the up side of a 43-save shutout.“We did good things, we just couldn’t find a way to score and that was definitely frustrating,” Predators center Ryan Johansen said. “We wanted to get the building involved and we were trying, but tonight wasn’t our night.”Nor was it Nashville’s night the last time it saw Winnipeg, which was on May 10 in Game 7 of a entertaining, back-and-forth series between the league’s two best regular-season teams. The Jets chased Pekka Rinne with two goals on shots Rinne badly wanted back Boston Bruins Hoodies Authentic , then pulled away in the third period for a 5-1 win that wrapped up a 4-3 series victory and their first trip to a conference final.While these aren’t the same teams that skated up and down the Bridgestone Arena ice on a warm spring night, they’re still mostly intact. And the home crowd is sure to remember that Winnipeg ended what they presumed would be a run to the Stanley Cup.“It’ll probably get hyped up more just because of what happened last year, and I think that’s just the way things go from previous years when teams come back and they reconnect the next year,” Predators coach Peter Laviolette said. “There’s always more of a hot button to it, but at the end of the day it’s a new season.”One that the Jets (2-1-0) have started with great expectations after their best NHL season. They played their home opener as well on Tuesday night but unlike Nashville, they sent the home crowd out of the rink in a good mood after dispatching Los Angeles 2-1.The final score didn’t reflect Winnipeg’s domination. The Jets owned major advantages in shots on goal (39-17), 5-on-5 shot attempts (56-33) and faceoff wins (37-21).“We generate chances, zone time, from a certain type of mentality of what pucks we shoot and which ones we don’t,” Winnipeg coach Paul Maurice said. “When we shoot the ones we want, we’re able to carry and maintain our speed in the offensive zone.”
