Peter Tessier: Grounded in Chicago
The Jets got out to a strong start and took two goal lead on a pari of tallies by Jim Slater. It was exactly the kind of start the team needed after 4 days off from their home opener on Sunday. This is a team that needs to get some games under it's belt and get a groove going in some way. A strong first road game would go a long way to easing the jitters and nerves along...
