The Anaheim Ducks and Winnipeg Jets have exited the Olympic break with positive results so far.<\/p>\n

They\u2019ll meet for the second time since the break when the Jets host the Ducks on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n

The Ducks came from behind to beat the Jets 5-4 in overtime on Feb. 27 in Anaheim. That was part of a nine-game homestand that concluded Sunday with a 4-0 loss to the St. Louis Blues.<\/p>\n

Still, the Ducks finished 7-2-0 on the homestand, helping them regain first place in the Pacific Division, the latest point in a season they\u2019ve held that spot since winning the division in 2017.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re happy with our stand here,\u201d Ducks coach Joel Quenneville said. \u201cLet\u2019s forget about (the 4-0 loss to St. Louis) and know that, \u2018Hey, let\u2019s get off to a positive start.\u2019 \u201d<\/p>\n

The Jets have won three in a row and have points in six straight games (4-0-2).<\/p>\n

They\u2019ve exceeded regulation in five of those games, most recently defeating the Vancouver Canucks 3-2 in overtime Saturday.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince the break, the guys have been playing fantastic hockey, scratching and clawing while never looking fazed,\u201d said Jets defenseman Josh Morrissey, who scored the overtime winner against the Canucks.<\/p>\n

Morrissey was playing his first game since sustaining an upper-body injury during Team Canada\u2019s first game against the Czech Republic at the Olympics. The 2023 NHL All-Star displayed his value throughout the return.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s an elite player,\u201d Jets forward Gabriel Vilardi said. \u201cHe was part of Team Canada for a reason. They missed him out there, obviously. It just shows how big of a difference-maker he is for us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Vancouver coach Adam Foote was impressed with the Jets\u2019 physicality in the middle of the ice.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a team you almost don\u2019t want to play on a back-to-back in their home barn because they do play dots and boards in our end and grind you out and try to wear you down,\u201d Foote said.<\/p>\n

The Ducks are eager to bounce back from their fourth shutout loss of the season Sunday.<\/p>\n

Anaheim survived a nine-game losing streak that started the game before the Christmas break and continued into mid-January.<\/p>\n

The Ducks have strung together winning streaks of seven and five games since then.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery team is so good now, so I think it\u2019s just difficult to put wins together,\u201d Anaheim defenseman Jackson LaCombe said. \u201cWe\u2019ve got to find different ways to win games.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Ducks are nearing full health again.<\/p>\n

Leo Carlsson missed the final 11 games before the Olympic break after undergoing a procedure to address a left thigh injury, and he has eight points (three goals, five assists) in seven games since returning.<\/p>\n

Mikael Granlund returned Sunday after missing the first six games following the break because he was injured while playing for Team Finland in the bronze-medal game.<\/p>\n

John Carlson, acquired in a trade with the Washington Capitals on Thursday, is expected to make his Anaheim debut toward the end of the four-game Canadian road trip, Quenneville said.<\/p>\n

That leaves forward Troy Terry (upper body) as the only Anaheim player still sidelined for the foreseeable future.<\/p>\n
