The final game of the pre-Christmas break for Winnipeg is a 12 noon CST start in Brooklyn as the Jets wrap up their three-game road trip this afternoon. The Islanders are holding down the final wild card spot in the Eastern Conference and have been very solid at Barclays Center with a 10-3-3 record.
The only lineup change is Steve Mason gets the start in net for the Jets. No word yet if coach Maurice will keep Nikolaj Ehlers or Kyle Connor on the top line.
