AM Skate:

None.

Lineup:

Might we see Sami Niku back in the lineup for the Jets?  Coach Maurice hasn’t given any indication whether the mobile defenceman is in.  We will have to wait until warm up skate to see if there will be any changes.  For now the lineup is simply based on the last game.

Jets Projected Lines, D pairs and Starting Goalie:

Connor-Scheifele-Laine
Ehlers-Wheeler-Roslovic
Bourque-Lowry-Perreault
Harkins-Shore-Appleton

Morrissey-Poolman
Sbisa-Pionk
Bitetto-Dahlstrom

Hellebuyck
Brossoit

Audio:

Coach Maurice spoke on Friday following practice and as he isn’t expected to speak ahead of today’s game you can hear his comments from yesterday.

Up Next:

Puck drop is at 1:00 PM CST.  Be sure to head over to illegalcurve.com following the game for a recap of the action which includes post-game audio from the Jets room as well as from Coach Maurice.

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.
