Story summary

The Winnipeg Jets kicked off their season with an exciting but ultimately disappointing 4-3 overtime loss to the Boston Bruins at Canada Life Centre on Friday night. Despite outshooting Boston early and leading twice in the game, a goal by Elias Lindholm tied it for the Bruins late in regulation. JJ Peterka then scored the winning goal just over three minutes into OT, securing a victory for the visiting team. Key moments included rookie Tyrel Bauer's fight with Mark Kastelic during his second NHL shift and a strong performance from Boston's goalie Jeremy Swayman, who made 30 saves. With 15,209 fans in attendance, the Jets face immediate opportunities to improve heading into their next game against the Detroit Red Wings on Sunday.
