The Red Wings went 0-for-5 on the power play, while also giving up a short-handed goal.

Winnipeg opened the scoring at 5:41 of the first period on a goal by Copp, who scored from an extremely tough angle. Copp fired a shot from behind the end line near the corner that squeezed inside the near post and past Nedeljkovic to make it 1-0.

The score remained that way until Copp struck again with 8:53 remaining in the second period.

Copp took a pass at center ice from Kyle Connor, skated in toward the Detroit goal and fired a shot from the edge of the right face-off circle and beat Nedelijovic stick side to give the Jets a 2-0 lead.

Detroit had an opportunity late in the third period when they went on a two-man advantage with 4:29 remaining. It turned into a 6-on-3 situation when the Red Wings decided to pull Nedeljkovic from goal.

But not only could the Red Wings not score, Connor scored an empty-net, short-handed goal with 2:31 remaining to seal the victory.
