Week 7 of the 2026 NHL season is almost under wraps as the league carries on with Saturday's 14-game slate!

Jets 5-4 Blackhawks

The Winnipeg Jets rallied back from being down 4-0 with five minutes left to go in the second period. Mark Scheifele put the squad on his back after scoring their first goal before proceeding to put up an assist on each of the following three that eventually tied things up.

After a scoreless overtime, Scheifele found the net during the shootout before Kyle Connor, who scored his 17th goal of the season to cut the Blackhawks' lead to 4-2, sent home the game-winner to complete yet another insane comeback. 

Scheifele officially surpassed Dale Hawerchuk for the most points in Jets' franchise history, bringing his total to 933. 

Winnipeg are now on a six-game win streak that started with a 4-0 third-period comeback against the Montreal Canadiens on November 3rd. They became just the second team in NHL history to come back from 4-0 multiple times during a six-game span. 

Jets record: 10-8-3 (W6)

Blackhawks record: 5-13-2 (L1)

Hurricanes 5-1 Kraken

The Carolina Hurricanes completed their two-game Global Series sweep of the Seattle Kraken over in Finland. They outshot the Kraken in this game a whopping 31-13, as Seattle didn't have more than five shots on goal in any period. 

Mark Jankowski (10) and Andrei Svechnikov (11) scored two goals each, with both of the latter's on the power play. Nikolaj Ehlers recorded his first three-assist game of the season, and the first since March 18th. 

Hurricanes record: 16-3-2 (W4)

Kraken record: 9-8-1 (L3)
