Game 23: Jets vs. Sharks pre-game report

The Jets are looking to wrap up a successful road trip tonight in San Jose as they have won two of three to date on this four game road trip.  It includes a 4-1 defeat of the Ducks yesterday afternoon in Anaheim.  Coach Maurice indicated following that game that Steve Mason will start in net for Winnipeg.  Aside from that no changes are expected but we will have to wait to hear from the Jets bench boss for confirmation.

Connor-Scheifele-Wheeler

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.
