Jets-Stars turns into chaotic NHL line brawl with massive cheap shot from Dallas' captain
The NHL playoff game between the Winnipeg Jets and the Dallas Stars turned into a chaotic line brawl during a third-period dust-up that saw a massive cheap shot from Dallas captain Jamie Benn. Facing elimination, the Jets had a 3-0 lead with less than seven minutes remaining in the game. The puck is far away from the benches when play is stopped due to a scuffle between several members of both teams in front of the Stars' contingent. In the skirmish are Benn alongside the Winnipeg duo of Mark Scheifele and Brandon Tanev, with cameras first showing a downed Scheifele with Benn towering over him and Tanev pulling the opposing captain away before more players join the choas. All four referees are involved, trying to separate the players when Benn and Scheifele separate from the pack, with one referee holding the arm of the Jets' assistant captain to keep him at bay. That is when Benn saw his moment to strike, throwing a right haymaker with his glove on to the face of Scheifele, drawing the ire of the Winnipeg crowd. Scheifele was irate at the punch and tries to break away from an official before he was subdued. After the shocking punch, cooler heads prevailed. Benn was fined $5,000 by the NHL for the punch, the maximum allowed by the league for on-ice actions. He will not be suspended from the incident. The Stars are still one victory away from the Western Conference Finals, with Saturday's Game 6 taking place on home ice in Texas. The stakes of playoff games are huge, with tempers usually boiling over on ice during this time of year. The winner of the Stars-Jets series will face the Edmonton Oilers in the next round, with a pair of Winnipeg wins securing a Canadian team in the Stanley Cup Final.

Stars' Jamie Benn fined $5K for roughing Jets' Mark Scheifele
May 16 - Dallas Stars captain Jamie Benn was fined $5,000 by the NHL on Friday after his exchange with Winnipeg Jets forward Mark Scheifele during the third period of Game 5 of the Western Conference semifinal series. The Jets staved off elimination with a 4-0 victory over the Stars on Thursday. Dallas, which hosts Winnipeg in Game 6 on Saturday, leads 3-2 in the best-of-seven series. The fine is the maximum allowable under the collective bargaining agreement. Winnipeg was nursing a 3-0 lead with 6:32 remaining in the third period when Benn pulled down Scheifele near the boards. The players were separated briefly and Scheifele was held by linesman Ryan Daisy when Benn unleashed a short jab to the jaw of the Jets forward. The blow caused both Scheifele and Daisy to fall to the ice. Benn received a roughing minor and a 10-minute misconduct. Jets forward Brandon Tanev, who attempted to intervene, was issued a game misconduct and Scheifele received a roughing penalty. --Field Level Media

NHL Makes Change to Jets-Stars Playoff Series
The Winnipeg Jets were able to stave off elimination on Thursday, taking down the Dallas Stars in Game 5 of their second-round postseason series. Now the series will head back to Dallas for Game 6, with the Stars looking to close out the matchup in front of their home fans. Winnipeg was able to shut out the Stars in the game, showing why they were the best team in the NHL all year. The Jets started the scoring in the second period and never let up to grab the win. Advertisement The league has announced the start time for Game 6 between the two teams. Game 6 will now take place on Saturday, May 17, at 8 p.m. ET. Entering Game 6, the Stars have to be feeling confident, even with the Game 5 loss. Winnipeg has struggled heavily on the road in the playoffs, going 0-5 to start this year. The Jets have looked like a completely different team away from home, and the Stars will be looking to take advantage of that fact. If Dallas can get an early lead, it may be able to use it to advance to the next round.

Goalie Connor Hellebuyck was electric for the Jets, and he will look to keep things going in Game 6.

Winnipeg Jets in must-win mode after Stars take Game 4
The Presidents' Trophy winners have been unable to win on the road in these playoffs Published May 14, 2025 • 3 minute read Winnipeg Jets forward Brandon Tanev (73) reacts at the end of the second period of Game 4 in a second-round NHL playoff series in Dallas on Tuesday, May 13, 2025.

Create Account Hands in his pant pockets, head facing down, Chipman occasionally glanced up at the television monitor in the hallway. He watched as his team pressed late but couldn't cut the deficit, eventually dropping a 3-1 decision to Dallas in a Game 4 loss that left the Jets in must-win mode for this second-round NHL playoff series. Chipman folded his arms and looked away in the dying seconds. He didn't need to look up again. The game-ending horn that blared throughout American Airlines Center and the roar from the sellout crowd said it all. Chipman moved to the side as the dejected players made their way into the room, a frustrated Josh Morrissey punching the door on his way through. The Presidents' Trophy winners have been unable to win on the road in these playoffs and now they're on the brink of elimination. The result, with Mikael Granlund scoring all three goals for the Stars, left Jets coach Scott Arniel with a clear message for his players.

Game 5 goes Thursday at Canada Life Centre, a venue that will be a welcome sight for a Winnipeg side that has lost nine straight road playoff games and all five this post-season. The Jets aren't getting breaks and the Stars have taken advantage of their opportunities. Jake Oettinger has outplayed Winnipeg's Connor Hellebuyck in net and Dallas is playing with confidence. The free-flowing skating, crisp puck movement and offensive potency that helped the Jets finish first in the overall standings have been minimized due to more frequent broken plays and general scuffling. Something just feels a little off and when Winnipeg presses to find another gear, it sometimes backfires. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. There are no easy answers for a team that hasn't won a road playoff game since the 2023 playoff opener in Las Vegas. 'If I had the answer to why, we would have got one at some point,' Ehlers said. 'I think this (season) we've been really good on the road, and now we need to win at home and find a way here and hopefully make it to Game 6. 'So we need to find a way, simple as that.' Arniel experimented for Game 4 by juggling his lines with Mark Scheifele on the top unit with wingers Kyle Connor and Alex Iafallo. The Stars also changed things up as star blueliner Miro Heiskanen returned after an absence of over three months due to knee surgery. A good start by Winnipeg was negated by an undisciplined penalty from Dylan DeMelo. He was called for holding the stick and Granlund tallied on the power play with a wrist shot that beat Hellebuyck on the glove side. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. After Ehlers scored early in the second period, Granlund restored the Dallas lead by shooting on a 2-on-1 break. He notched his first career hat trick with a one-timer midway through the third. 'Granny led the way,' said Stars coach Pete DeBoer. Heiskanen, meanwhile, played almost 15 minutes and set up Granlund's final goal — a power-play marker — with a crisp pass from the point. 'He's worked his butt off,' Oettinger said of Heiskanen. 'Just such a big part of this team. The fact that we get to add a guy like that halfway through the post-season run is incredible.' Sounds like a player who's preparing to play two more rounds. If Oettinger plays like he did Tuesday, he very well might. Oettinger made 31 stops, including a highlight-reel save on Kyle Connor in the second period and a short-handed breakaway stop on the Winnipeg forward in the third. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. 'There were a couple of guys that had some really good looks,' Arniel said. 'Just got to find a way to bury those.' Hellebuyck, a Vezina Trophy and Hart Trophy nominee, has started all five road losses this spring. He has a 5.84 goals-against average and .793 save percentage away from home in the playoffs. 'I leave it all out there every night, I'm doing my best,' Hellebuyck said in a rare post-game media availability for the netminder. 'Sometimes it's a heartbreak, but all it takes is one little change, one little bounce and things can start going our way.' The Jets led the NHL with 26 road wins this past season and topped the Western Conference in road points percentage. They won't be back on the road this spring without a victory at home in Game 5.

Playoff hockey is a different beast, and for the Jets, this series is demonstrating why. Although they were the NHL's top defensive team during the regular season (allowing 190 goals), they have looked rather pedestrian against the Stars, especially in Game 3, where they allowed five goals. The turning point was in the third period with the score tied 2-2, when Alexander Petrovic and Mikko Rantanen scored within 50 seconds of each other to give the Stars a commanding advantage. For many teams, the games are won and lost on the power play, and in Game 3, that's where the Jets fell flat. They went just 1-for-2 on the penalty kill and 0-for-4 on the power play, unable to take advantage in what was a close game until the third period. Connor Hellebuyck stopped just 21 of 26 shots for the game (80.8% save percentage), representing the fifth-worst playoff game of his career. Just this postseason, he has recorded five of his six worst playoff games in terms of save percentage. Live stream Winnipeg Jets vs. Dallas Stars on Fubo: Start your subscription now!
