Blake Wheeler notched his 18th goal in Winnipeg's 5-3 loss to Washington Tuesday night.
Wheeler has been red hot down the stretch, with four goals and eight assists in his past eight games. The Jets' defeat doesn't knock them out of playoff contention, but the Capitals have clinched the Southeast Division title. Evander Kane also found the back of the net for Winnipeg on a second-period power-play goal. Nik Antropov made a triumphant return to the lineup from a lower-body injury with a goal and an assist.
