Game 81: Jets vs Flames pre-game report

A look at the projected lineups and pre-game interviews.

The Jets have won two straight and will go for a third straight victory tonight when they welcome the Flames to town for what will be the second last game of the regular season for Winnipeg. Still remains to be seen if Calgary chooses to rest guys ahead of the playoffs but worth noting they did play with a full roster last night in Minnesota where they lost in OT.

As per Ken Wiebe of Sportsnet there has been a Mark Scheifele sighting as he is skating in a yellow, non-contact uniform this morning. He also indicated that Connor Hellebuyck is going through his usual starting routine.

Connor-Dubois-Harkins
Ehlers-Stastny-Wheeler
Barron-Lowry-Appleton
Sanford-Toninato-Svechnikov

Morrissey-DeMelo
Dillon-Schmidt
Samberg-Pionk
