Keeping tabs on day 8 of Winnipeg Jets training camp

The Jets pummeled the AHL version of the Oilers last night rolling to a 6-1 win in Winnipeg as their veteran roster looked very connected as a group. Of course it would have been a different story if McDavid and friends had been on the ice.

Today the focus shifts to another game on the horizon as the Jets will face the Wild in St. Paul on Friday night. We shall see how things look to get an indication as to how head coach Scott Arniel potentially plans to configure his lineup.

Missing in action:
No Logan Stanley who was supposed to play last night but didn’t play. Also missing is Dylan Samberg.

Lines and D Pairs:

Connor-Scheifele-Vilardi
Ehlers-Namestnikov-Perfetti
Niederreiter-Lowry-Appleton
Barron-Kupari-Iafallo
Anderson-Dolan & Gustafsson

Morrissey-DeMelo
Lundmark-Pionk
Fleury-Miller
Coghlan-Salomonsson

Health updates:

Logan Stanley is dealing with a tweak that they are evaluating, Ville Heinola had surgery with no timetable on his return and Dylan Samberg was nicked up last night in the game against the Oilers but is expected to play tomorrow against the Wild.

Up next:

Tomorrow the game group is scheduled to skate at 10 AM at hockey for all centre while the non-game group will skate at 11:45 AM. Puck drop between the Jets and Wild is 7 PM CT.
