WINNIPEG — At this time of year, with the Winnipeg Jets fighting desperately for even a sniff at the playoffs, there are no moral victories. While the Jets showed they are fully capable of competing with a top NHL team like the San Jose Sharks Monday night, it wasn’t the kind of night for focusing on the positives. The loss to the Sharks simply served to drive home the point that the Jets are running out of time in their quest to secure a playoff berth. “That’s the sort of playoff hockey game that we’re going to see down the stretch,” Morrissey said. On this night, the Jets carried the majority of play in the first period, but it was the Sharks who got the first goal.
