This test couldn’t have been more difficult for the Senators. The Jets dressed the likes of Kyle Connor, Mark Scheifele, Nikolaj Ehlers, Blake Wheeler and Cole Perfetti up front while Pierre Luc-Dubois was a spectator. The club also had four of its top defencemen playing.Still, this was a good opportunity for the Senators to get a first-hand look at where some of the players in this organization stand and you can’t question the compete-level.
Give this group credit because they refused to back down and the Senators did a good job physically. The Jets should have seized the momentum when they pulled out to a 4-2 lead on Ville Heinola’s goal with 49 seconds remaining in the second period.Article content “Overall I thought we played really well,” said Pinto. “Every game I go out there I feel a little bit better. I had the whole year off but I’m definitely feeling more confident with each game.”
The Jets tied it up 2-2 at 13:44 of the second on the power play. Michael Eyssimont was able to tip a Connor shot by Mandolese with Tyler Boucher in the box.
