VANCOUVER, DEC. 22 - It was a pretty even battle until H. Sedin opened the score in the second period. But again the Jets offense (notoriously the first line) came up big in the third to win it. Top scorer Blake Wheeler deked between two defenders to score a beauty, the go-ahead goal. Kesler managed to find the back on the net in the final seconds, but it was already too late as the Jets had already claimed another victory, their third straight, in Vancouver.
