It was Hellebuyck’s second shutout of the matchup and marked the first playoff-series victory in franchise history. The Jets move on to the second round of the NHL Western Conference playoffs. They only got as far as the second round in 2014 and ‘15, when Chicago knocked them out both years. The Jets had finished second in the league in the regular season with 114 points (52-20-10), setting franchise records for wins and points. The victory was also notable because the original Jets last delivered a playoff-series win for the city 31 years ago.
