Game #9: Winnipeg Jets vs St. Louis Blues
During a season where some of the bigger scorers on the team have been keeping quiet on the scoresheet, it is hugely refreshing to see other players step up. Certainly, players less known for their scoring prowess such as defensemen are often ones who get the fuzzy end of the lollipop, but Jacob Trouba was no sucker as he banged in the overtime winner during the Jets' fifth game in their six game home stand, taking the two points with a 5-4 win.

S#!+ People Say
Remember sportscaster Brian Davis, who was suspended for his derogatory remarks regarding Russel Westbrook? I believe he used the phrase, "He's out of his cotton-picking mind." You should, the clip of the incident went viral earlier this year, leading to an arbitrary one game suspension of the television personality. The fact that he'll live in infamy for those comments is the seemingly more harsh of the two consequences.
