You can hear from coach Vincent, goalie Adam Carlson and CJ Suess.

From an Ottawa perspective we learn how they will look via the Sens Communications department:

Formenton-Brown-Batherson
Gruden-Norris-Davidsson
Abramov-Beaudin-Veronneau
Kelly-Kastelic-Sturtz

Brannstrom-Guenette
Bourque-McDonald

Gustavsson

The game gets underway at 6 pm.  You can watch it on TSN.ca or the TSN App.  I believe the Senators will also be streaming it live on their Facebook page.

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
