Since the Jets won’t hold a game day skate here are the lines based on yesterday’s skate at the IcePlex and now updated based on warm up skate in Buffalo:
Ehlers-Scheifele-Wheeler
Armia-Burmistrov-Stafford
Thorburn-Lowry-Halischuk
Petan-Copp-Dano
Chiarot-Byfuglien
Stuart-Trouba
Melchiori-Postma
Hutchinson
Pavelec
Note:
Jacob Trouba didn’t skate yesterday but will take game day skate and looks like he will go today in Buffalo. If he can’t then Brenden Kitchton will play in his first NHL game.
Via Mike Harrington of the Buffalo News we get these projected lines, D pairs and starting goalie:
Kane-O’Reiley-Deslauriers
Girgensons-Eichel-Reinhart
Foligno-Larsson-Gionta
Moulson-Legwand-Fasching
Gorges-Ristolainen
McCabe-Bogosian
Pysyk-Nelson
