With the Jets having played last night they won’t have an AM skate today in New Jersey as they get ready to take on the Devils at 6 pm tonight. Coach Maurice confirmed this morning to Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun that he is going with the same lineup as they played with in Boston:
Ladd-Little-Wheeler
Perreault-Scheifele-Ehlers
Burmistrov-Lowry-Stafford
Petan-Copp-Thorburn
Enstrom-Myers
Chiarot-Byfuglien
Stuart-Trouba
Hutchinson
Pavelec
Devils lines come to us from Tom Gulitti of The Record who was at New Jersey skate this morning:
Cammalleri-Zajac-Stempniak
Henrique-Josefson-Palmieri
Boucher-Kalinin-Tlusty
Ruutu-Gionta-Tootoo
Greene-Larsson
Merrill-Moore
Schlemko-Severson
Schneider
Kinkaid
Quite the Manitoba connection in the above lineup. Three Manitobans (Tootoo, Severson & Zajac), two former Jets (Stempniak & Tlusty) and one former Manitoba Moose (Schneider).
He's closing in on his first game since January 13th.
The 2024 2nd rounder is in Winnipeg where he'll spend the rest of the season…
