Connor Ingram made 23 saves and tough defence carried the Utah Hockey Club in a 5-2 victory over the Winnipeg Jets on Monday night.

When they woke up on Monday, the Utah Hockey Club was 7-11-4 at home. Their Monday opponents, the Winnipeg Jets, were 13-8-0 on the road. Naturally, the second-place Jets were the heavy favorites in the game at the Delta Center.

The Utah Hockey Club finished off their seven-game homestand with a bang on Monday, beating the current best team in the Western Conference: the Winnipeg Jets by a score of 5-2.
