Note II: After last night’s game in Minnesota which saw the Jets lose 5-1 to the Wild for the fifth time this season the team held a closed door, player only meeting and then took off for Colorado. Today the Jets were scheduled to practice but will instead have a team meeting as they get ready to take on the Avalanche tomorrow night in Denver.
Note III: The Moose kicked off the final homestand of the regular season last night with a massive 3-1 win against the Condors. The win moved Manitoba back into a playoff spot and they are now just three points back of the 3rd spot (with one game in hand on Iowa). Today they have a re-match with Bakersfield with a 7 pm puck drop at Bell MTS Place.
Note IV: Following the Moose broadcast tune in for two hours of hockey talk via NHL This Week on TSN 1290 Winnipeg.
