Note: This year the local Winnipeg chapter of the PHWA has nominated Jonathan Toews as the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy nominee for Winnipeg.
Note II: The Jets held an optional practice yesterday as they looked to take advantage having a couple of days between games. They woke up this morning one point further back as the Predators won yesterday meaning Winnipeg sits four back of the final wild card spot. They have an 11 AM CT skate scheduled today before they take off for St. Louis where they will face the Blues during their one-game road trip. Check back for the Practice Report to get fully up-to-date with the latest news.
Note II: The Moose hosted the Admirals last night in a game which featured the fastest goal in Manitoba history. The home team actually scored four goals before their lead got whittled down by Milwaukee but goalie prospect Thomas Milic stood tall in the final moment to preserve the 4-3 win and help his team punch their tickets to the post-season. These two teams will have a re-match this evening at 7 PM CT.
