Laine closed out the month of November with 18 goals which was two off of former Jet Teemu Selanne's NHL record for goals in a calendar month set back in March of 1993.
"The run he's been on, 11 goals in a week obviously something I've never seen," said Blake Wheeler who ended the night with three assists.
"He's the type of guy you ask him why he hasn't scored in five games and something like that is around the corner. What a blessing he is to have, tie game, down a goal you are never out of it with a shot like that."
Laine opened the scoring 1:43 into the first period, Jacob Trouba's initial shot was kicked out by Corey Crawford but the rebound came right to Laine who swept in the rebound for the milestone marker.
It didn't take long for the Blackhawks to even the score, 1:20 later Marcus Kruger found a loose puck in front of Hellebuyck and shot high and through a screen to make it 1-1.
49 seconds after the Hawks tied it, a neutral zone turnover allowed Winnipeg to head back the other way on an odd man rush. Mark Scheifele went cross ice to Blake Wheeler and the Jets captain spotted Nikolaj Ehlers heading to the net and delivered a perfect pass that Ehlers tapped in.
Again Chicago tied the game with Dylan Kampf going in alone on Hellebuyck who made the initial stop with his right pad. No one picked up John Hayden who jammed in the loose puck to make it 2-2.
Cameron Schilling played in his first NHL game since March 11, 2015 when he was a member of the Washington Capitals. Schilling recorded his first NHL point with a secondary assist on Nikolaj Ehlers second of the night 1:01 into the second period.
Winnipeg took a two-goal lead for the first time on the night 47 seconds later Jacob Trouba scored his second of the season. Trouba jumped up into the play took a Scheifele pass and was stopped on his initial shot but with three Blackhawks standing around him, Trouba was able to score on the rebound.
Chicago made the Jets pay off as Jan Rutta intercepted a pass inside the Jets blueline and he blasted a shot that went off Hellebuyck's glove and in to make it 4-3.
The Jets had two third period leads disappear on them in the previous three games so it was a relief to restore their two-goal lead 1:18 into period three. With Duncan Keith in the penalty box for slashing, Laine picked Gustav Forsling's pocket and put a low shot past Crawford for his second of the night. The 20-year-old wingers 21 goals currently has him in the NHL lead by two over Buffalo's Jeff Skinner and Boston's David Pastrnak.
"I think Patty's got lots of room to be a great player," said Paul Maurice.
"But the shot doesn't have to get better right? I think he's going to get more shots, I think he's going to get different looks as he evolves as a player as his winger and centre do as well as the group does."
