Since the Jets played yesterday they won’t have a game day skate today.  Mark Scheifele has been activated and Matt Halischuk was re-assigned to the Moose.  The question is whether coach Maurice drops him onto the 3rd line and moves Thorburn to the 4th to keep the Ladd/Lowry/Burmistrov line intact. (Updated: According to Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun it appears that Hutchinson will be starting).

Possible projected lines:

Stafford-Little-Wheeler
Ladd-Lowry-Burmistrov
Perreault-Scheifele-Ehlers
Armia-Copp-Thorburn

Trouba-Byfuglien
Enstrom-Myers
Stuart-Chiarot

Hutchinson
Hellebuyck

Projected lines from Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register:

Rakell-Getzlaf-Perry
Hagelin-Kesler-Silfverberg
Cogliano-Horcoff-Santorelli
Maroon-Thompson-Stewart

Lindholm-Manson
Vatanen-Bieksa
Stoner-Theodore

Gibson
Andersen

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.
