Game 38: Jets vs. Oilers pre-game report

The Jets have had some time away from the rink to heal up from the bumps and bruises of an intense pre-Christmas schedule. But now the real test begins as they continue to battle for a second ever playoff spot since the move to Winnipeg. Today they welcome an Oilers to town that have won four straight games as they try to remain relevant in the Western Conference.

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.
