After a difficult loss to Ottawa on Monday, the Winnipeg Jets were back on the ice against the East Division leading New York Rangers Wednesday evening. . Eight points out of a playoff spot with six games to go is not a good situation. An area the Jets have struggled in this season is the five-on-three power play. In the first period they had one for one minute and 43 seconds but failed to score, so they are now two-for-twelve on the season. With the game scoreless, the Jets scored two in 56 seconds - the first one from Spencer Machacek, his second, and the second from Bryan Little, his 23rd. Machacek now has two goals and seven points in six games since his second recall of the season. Little now has four goals in his last five games. The game had some interesting twists and turns. The Jets had the first five power-plays of the game, but it was on the fifth power-play, when leading 2-0, that the game turned. A short-handed goal by Michael Del Zotto got the Rangers on the board and then it was the Jets turn to head to the penalty box as they took the six penalties. A power-play goal by Ryan Callahan tied it late in the second. Before the period was out, Andrew Ladd got a double-minor for high sticking with 1:07 left in the second. But the Jets killed it off only to have Brian Boyle jam one in 14 seconds after the kill to give the Rangers the lead. Then the Rangers showed why they give up the fewest goals in the Eastern Conference. Another power-play goal put it away, giving the Rangers a 4-2 win and four game sweep of the season series. "The turning point was the short-handed goal," commented coach Claude Noel. "They then took the game over. Our power-play did not execute, the five on three is sometimes an indication of your skill level." The magnitude of the recent games seems to have taken a lot of energy out of the Jets. They started well but once they fell behind and the Rangers went into their defensive style, the Jets could not muster much of an attack; finishing with only five shots in the third period. From early in the second to the end of the game, the Rangers outshot the Jets, 24-11. The Jets now depart on a four-game road trip starting in Carolina on Friday. (TSN Jets, TSN 1290). Chris Mason will start in goal. Games against Tampa, Florida, and the Islanders will conclude the road schedule, with the final regular season home game April 7th against Tampa. Nik Antropov should be back in the lineup Friday, with Chris Thorburn possible for next week. Eric Fehr remains day-to-day with an upper-body injury.

Maclin went down at the end of a non-contact drill and appeared to be in pain while he was on the ground for several minutes.

Korver made a 3 for a 90th straight game, Al Horford scored 22 points, and the Atlanta Hawks beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 108-89 Friday night. Korvers 3 with 5:29 remaining in the first quarter broke a tie with Dana Barros (1994-96). "It feels good, Im glad its done" Korver said after scoring 10 points and making 2 of 3 from beyond the arc. "My naps the last couple (game days) havent been very solid. Im the product of good team basketball, of setting screens and (getting) good passes and floor spacing and all of that. "Theres a lot of thanks to go around ... players who arent here, coaches who arent here this year and this group in here. I just said, Thank you." Korver has made 47 per cent of his 3-point shots (235 of 502) during the streak. Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer said he didnt think the team went out of its way to get the 11-year veteran from Creighton the ball in position to break the record, but admitted that his players might say otherwise. Korver missed his first try just 1:03 into the game as fans rose from their seats as he rose to shoot. Everybody in Philips Arena stood up again just an instant before the record-setter swished to give Atlanta an 18-10 lead. "DeMarre (Carroll) passed up a wide-open shot to try to get him the ball, and I gave up a transition try," said Atlanta point guard Jeff Teague, who scored 13 points. "I wish I made the pass." That honour went to forward Paul Millsap, who scored 16 points and tied his season high with 14 rebounds to help offset a season-high 30 points off the bench by Clevelands Dion Waiters. Millsap, who was also a teammate of Korvers with the Jazz, was more proud of his assist to Korver than anything else. "Im in the history book now," he said with a smile. "Im in awe to see something like that. Teams focus on keeping him off the 3-point line, and for him to do that for so long is an amazingg accomplishment.

Jarrett Jack added 13 points off the bench for Cleveland, but all Cavs other than him, Waiters and Bynum (20 points, season-high 13 rebounds) combined to shoot 12 for 50. Cleveland starters Kyrie Irving and Alonzo Gee went scoreless. Irving, who entered the game averaging 20.8 points per game, shot 0 for 9. Atlanta raced to a 37-20 lead in the first quarter while Korver made two of Atlantas five 3s in the period. Millsap connected from 50 feet as the buzzer sounded. Atlanta did not make a 3 in the second quarter, yet built a 63-43 halftime lead as Millsap had 14 points and seven rebounds in the first two periods. Cleveland went on a 12-0 run in the third quarter, pulling to 77-60 on Bynums putback. Waiters and rookie guard Matthew Dellavedova hit 3-pointers on consecutive possessions to pull the Cavs to 84-72 early in the fourth before Atlanta steadily pulled away. Waiters shot 13 for 20 shots, but lamented the Cavs slow start and lethargic showing. "Weve got to come out with a sense of urgency," he said. "Its frustrating to have to keep talking about the same thing over and over. "Supermans not coming in the locker room to help us. Its just us. Were all weve got so at the end of the day weve got to come out and play, play the right way, too." Cleveland entered the night having won back-to-back games for the first time this season, but was never really in this game. The Cavs trailed 77-48 in the third quarter. "Weve got to come out, weve got to compete for 48 minutes," Cleveland coach Mike Brown said. "Weve got to find a grittiness ... Im not worried about Kyries shot. Hes going to make enough shots." NOTES: Hawks reserve post man Gustavo Ayon suffered a left ankle sprain and a left leg contusion in the final minute of the game. His status for Tuesdays game against the Thunder was not announced.
