Game 56: Jets vs. Sabres pre-game report

The Jets limp into Buffalo on a three-game losing streak after they got pumped by the Senators 5-2.

The projected lines are simply based on the last game (with exception of Connor Hellebuyck in net).  If there are any changes they will be updated accordingly.

AM Skate:

No skate this morning.

Jets projected lines, D pairs and starting goalie:

Connor-Scheifele-Wheeler
Laine-Little-Roslovic
Perreault-Lowry-Tanev
Lemieux-Copp-Appleton

Morrissey-Trouba
Chiarot-Byfuglien
Morrow-Myers

Hellebuyck
Brossoit

Note – Lemieux was a game-time decision but was fine and will play.  Nic Petan, who took pre-game skate, will be a healthy scratch.

Up Next:

Puck drop is at 2:00 pm CT.  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.
