Kyle Connor made a move in the first period Saturday that signalled to Jets captain Blake Wheeler his linemate was going to have a big night. Jets rookie Kyle Connor added his first two playoff goals to help Winnipeg to a 6-2 win over Nashville to take a crucial 3-2 series lead. "He plays at a certain rate, a certain cadence," Maurice said of that move Connor made at the blue line in the first. Pekka Rinne stopped 20 of 26 shots before getting pulled in favour of Juuse Saros, who finished with five saves. The Jets will look to close out the series in Game 6 at home on Monday.
