Overview

The Edmonton Oilers enjoyed a great start to this rivalry. After beating the Winnipeg Jets (then the Atlanta Thrashers) 5-4 in their first meeting, they then went on to win six of the first nine games between the pair. But the Jets have since managed to turn things around. They’ve closed the gap in the head-to-head and toppled their rivals in the First Round of the 2021 Stanley Cup play-offs. The Jets won that series 4-0, with three of those victories coming in overtime.
