Game 11: Jets vs. Capitals pre-game report

Jets are hitting the ice now for morning skate.

According to Brian Munz of TSN 1290 Winnipeg the lines and D pairs looked like this:

Ehlers-Scheifele-Wheeler
Connor-Perreault-Tanev
Laine-Lowry-Armia
Dano-Copp-Burmistrov

Morrissey-Byfuglien
Enstrom-Postma
Melchiori-Chiarot

Hutchinson
Hellebuyck

Player Audio:

Marko Dano:  Excited for the opportunity?  What does he need to do to be effective tonight?  Did he go down to the Moose with the belief that doing his best there would ensure an opportunity.  On facing the Capitals.

Paul Postma:  What did he learn about the Capitals in that last game and what it will take to win.  Generating shots against the Capitals and how do they do it again?

Andrew Copp:  Getting back into the lineup.  What has he worked on with the Moose and what was morning skate like?

Coach Audio:

Paul Maurice:  Second game of a back to back.  Is there carryover from game to game?  Update on Chris Thorburn?  Update on Mark Stuart?  Different look to the lines.  Nice to be able to bring in guys with NHL experience into the lineup.  Generating shots on Washington.
