The Jets come into the game going for that all import but elusive third win in a row when they welcome the Senators to town this evening.
While he wasn’t ruled out 100% it seems unlikely that Adam Lowry will return to the lineup before tomorrow’s game against Columbus.
Give the performance we saw from Connor Hellebuyck in the win on Tuesday it seems likely that he’ll get the start again for Winnipeg.

According to Scott Billeck of the Winnipeg Sun no lineup changes for the Jets this evening as they’ll use the same forward and D pairings as well as having Hellebuyck in net.
