There were some big changes on Saturday at practice in New Jersey as the Jets look to get themselves back on track with a new look to the lines and the power play units.

Skate news:

Was scheduled to be at 10:30 AM CST but instead they’ll hold a media availability at 3:30 PM CST.

For now the lines below reflect how they were run on Saturday and will be amended (if necessary) based on what is said during the afternoon availability.

Jets projected lines & D pairs:

Connor – Dubois –  Maenalanen
Perfetti – Scheifele –  Appleton
Ehlers – Lowry – Wheeler
Barron – Stenlund – Kuhlman

Morrissey – DeMelo
Dillon – Pionk
Schmidt – Samberg

Hellebuyck
Rittich

Betway Odds:

The Devils were in Pittsburgh last night where they handled the Penguins by a final score of 5-2 which runs them to 7-2-1 in their last ten games which has them sitting in 2nd place in the Metro Division. They’ve been a good home team going 15-10-2 at the Prudential Center with a total goal differential of +44. Be sure to check out the latest game day odds from Betway.
