Game 67: Jets vs Coyotes pre-game report

The biggest question mark for the Jets as they head into tonight’s game against the Coyotes is the status of Jansen Harkins. He didn’t play after the 1st period of Friday’s win over the Blue Jackets and since Winnipeg didn’t skate on Saturday so we don’t have an update on his status. If he can’t go then the likelihood is they simply play Adam Brooks is in the 2nd round. Also the Moose return home after a seven-game road trip so could be the team recalls s a player to cover for Harkins.

Morning skate:

As per Ken Wiebe of Sportnet one for sure change and one possible ons. Ville Heinola comes in for Logan Stanley who draws back in and Jansen Harkins is going to give it a go and if he cannot play then Adam Brooks will play.

Warm-up skate news:

As per Wieber it looks like Jansen Harkins is good to go and will play tonight.

Connor-Dubois-Wheeler
Stastny-Scheifele-Ehlers
