For the first time in franchise history, the Winnipeg Jets have won their 53rd game in a season, setting the mark for the most ever since they have been in the NHL.

Alex Iafallo scored the go-ahead goal on a rebound at 7:05 of the third period, leading the Winnipeg Jets to a 3-1 victory over the St. Louis Blues on Monday night. The victory was the Jets' franchise-record 53rd of the season.
St. Louis saw its franchise-record 12-game winning streak, the league's longest this season, end in the loss.
Morgan Barron got the scoring started in the second period, outpacing Blues forward Mathieu Joseph to a loose puck and snapping it past goaltender Joel Hofer.
Pavel Buchnevich replied five minutes later, tipping a slick pass from Robert Thomas past the goalie to tie it at 1-1. It was Buchnevich's 18th of the season and stretched his scoring streak to three games.

Connor Hellebuyck also tied the franchise record with his 44th win

Connor Hellebuyck stopped 14 shots for Winnipeg (53-21-4), tying his franchise mark he set in 2017-18 with his 44th victory. Adam Lowry sealed the win with an empty-netter in the final seconds.
The Jets hold the NHL lead with 110 points, leading the Western Conference and Central Division as well. Hofer made 23 saves for St. Louis (43-29-7), which holds the first wild-card spot in the West, two points clear of the idle Minnesota Wild.
The Blues will next host Edmonton on Wednesday, while the Jets visit Dallas to face the Stars on Thursday, in what could be a possible playoff preview matchup.
