It was a busy practice for the Jets on Saturday at the IcePlex.  They got the unfortunate news that Dmitry Kulikov would require back surgery which would have him on the shelf for two months before coach Maurice is ready with his next progress report.  But they also got good news that, depending on how they feel today both Adam Lowry and Mark Scheifele could be players for the Jets tonight, as could Tobias Enstrom.

Coach Maurice:  Status of Scheifele/Lowry.  Depth of the Jets centres.  Enough minutes for everyone?  Jets lines tonight.  On Jack Roslovic coming out.  Status of Enstrom.  What impressed him the most about Jacob Trouba’s first game back?  Hellebuyck starts?  What does he like about Tanev’s game that keeps him in over Roslovic?  Challenges of Dallas.
