Meanwhile, Sam Steel tied the game at the 11:12 mark of the middle frame to send the game to overtime.<\/p>\n<p>With that in mind, here are the three least impressive players from the Winnipeg Jets\u2019 overtime loss to the Dallas Stars in Game 6 on Saturday night at the American Airlines Center.<\/p>\n<h2>3 least impressive Winnipeg Jets players from Game 6 loss to Dallas Stars<\/h2>\n<h3>#3 Cole Perfetti<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/us\/nhl\/news-cole-perfetti-recalls-helplessly-frustrated-ex-jets-hc-rick-bowness\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Cole Perfetti<\/a> failed to be a difference-maker for the Winnipeg Jets against the Dallas Stars like he did in the series against the St. Louis Blues.<\/p>\n<p>Perfetti had a disappointing night, playing a shade under 13 minutes across 19 shifts. He managed a shot on goal while ending the night a minus-1.<\/p>\n<p>While Perfetti has made tremendous strides for Winnipeg this season, he will need to step up in the postseason if he is to establish himself as a true top-six forward in the NHL.<\/p>\n<h3>#2 Nikolaj Ehlers<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/us\/nhl\/nikolaj-ehlers-contract\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Nikolaj Ehlers<\/a> was solid in the series against Dallas. However, when the Winnipeg Jets needed him the most, he failed to deliver.<\/p>\n<p>Ehlers played 14:48 in Game 6 across 21 shifts. He managed just a single shot on goal and did not generate high-danger scoring chances. With his speed, Ehlers could have been a solid difference-maker, especially in a tight-checking game.<\/p>\n<p>As an impending free agent, Saturday night\u2019s Game 6 could have been his final with the Jets.<\/p>\n<h3>#1 Dylan Samberg<\/h3>\n<p>Game 6 proved to be a rough outing for the Jets\u2019 blue liner. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/us\/nhl\/rumor-nhl-rumors-elliotte-friedman-reports-winnipeg-jets-looking-make-big-blue-line-additions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Dylan Samberg<\/a> was an unfortunate participant in both of the Stars\u2019 goals on Saturday night.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s look at the first one:<\/p>\n<p>The replay showed Samberg unable to stop the Dallas forecheck as the puck came back to Sam Steel. Samberg stood at the side of the net puck-watching as the shot beat Connor Hellebuyck for the tying goal.<\/p>\n<p>Then, in overtime, Samberg was burned again, this time during the Stars\u2019 lone power play.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a look:<\/p>\n<p>Neal Pionk lost the puck along the boards, allowing the pass to come back to Thomas Harley who had moved up from the point. Meanwhile, Samberg had lost sight of the puck. By the time he turned around, the puck was already in the back of the net.<\/p>\n<p>To make matters worse, Samberg did a great job of screening his own goaltender, allowing the puck to beat Hellebuyck on the blocker side.<\/p>\n<p>The Winnipeg Jets will now begin their offseason as the team looks for answers regarding another disappointing playoff exit.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-post-rating-widget\">\n<p><template id=\"post-rating-feedback-modal-template\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-feedback-box\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-content\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-data\">\n<p>Why did you not like this content?<\/p>\n<p><textarea id=\"dislike-feedback-text\" rows=\"4\" placeholder=\"Please type your feedback...\"\/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<button class=\"close\">Cancel<\/button><br \/>\n<button class=\"submit\">Submit<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-widget-parent hidden\">\n<div class=\"rating-parent-container\">\n<div class=\"rating-content-holder\">\n<p>Was this article helpful?<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-action-container\">\n<div class=\"like-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-like-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"like\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-like-image post-rating-image\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" alt=\"like selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dislike-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-dislike-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"dislike\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-dis-like-image post-rating-image\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" alt=\"avatar selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nThank You for feedback\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-author-info-parent\">\n<span class=\"about-the-author\">About the author<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"author-info-holder\">\n<div class=\"author-pic-holder\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"author-pic\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,&lt;svg width=\" height=\"100\"\/><rect width=\"100\" height=\"100\" style=\"fill:rgb(128, 128, 128);\"\/>&#8221; data-lazy=&#8221;https:\/\/keedag.sportskeeda.com\/user-pic\/2981390-1716632323-200.jpg?w=200&#8243;<br \/>\nalt=&#8221;Nestor Quixtan&#8221; height=&#8221;72&#8243; width=&#8221;72&#8243;&gt;\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-bio-detail-holder\">\n<div class=\"author-bio\">\n<p class=\"author-bio\" id=\"author-bio-text\">\nNestor is an NHL and MLB writer at Sportskeeda with over 10 years of experience. Growing up in Toronto, he became an avid Maple Leafs and Blue Jays fan, but also admires the New York Islanders and Los Angeles Dodgers for their dominance in the 80s. Holding an Economics and Education major, Nestor\u2019s passion for writing and sporting events led him to take up reporting about the sport professionally.<\/p>\n<p>Nestor credits the Leafs\u2019 playoff runs in the early &#8217;90s as having a lasting impact on him. His favorite players are Doug Gilmour and Mike Bossy, as he feels they were tough, talented leaders, while Pat Burns is his favorite coach of all time for always preaching a fast-paced game.<\/p>\n<p>Growing up in Canada, it was natural for Nestor to become interested in ice hockey and he played Minor Hockey as a teenager, which has given him a unique perspective on the sport. Nestor has mastered the art of how to best present facts and he also has a knack for knowing which sources can be trusted, and which can&#8217;t for stories.<\/p>\n<p>When he is not writing about Canada\u2019s national passion, Nestor enjoys running and hiking.\n<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"author-know-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/author\/nestor-quixta\" aria-label=\"Author know more\">Know More<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"tag-cloud\">\n<div class=\"tags-text\">\n<div class=\"scrollable-content-holder  article-padding\">\n<p class=\"article-p  \">Quick Links<\/p>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerLeft\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Left \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"background: none;\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-left.svg\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button><\/p>\n<nav id=\"pnProductNav\" class=\"pn-ProductNav\">\n<\/nav>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerRight\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Right \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"background: none;\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-right.svg\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<p>More from Sportskeeda<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<span class=\"publisher-name\">Edited by Nestor Quixtan<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/us\/nhl\/3-least-impressive-winnipeg-jets-players-2-1-ot-game-6-loss-dallas-stars-feat-dylan-samberg\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] The Winnipeg Jets\u2019 2025 Stanley Cup run has come to an end with a 2-1 overtime loss to the Dallas Stars in Game 6<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":276673,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[180],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/michigandigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/276672"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/michigandigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/michigandigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/michigandigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/michigandigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=276672"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/michigandigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/276672\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/michigandigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/276673"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/michigandigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=276672"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/michigandigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=276672"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/michigandigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=276672"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
