It feels like a lifetime ago the Jets last played a hockey game which is not a sentiment we will be expressing going forward as they have a lot of games coming up starting tonight when they continue their four-game homestand by welcoming the Sharks to town. San Jose, who played and lost 4-2 last night to the Hawks in Chicago, will be without 2024 1st rounder Macklin Celebrini who was eligible to come off IR yesterday but didn’t make the trip as he recovers from an injury.
