Note: The Jets hit the ice yesterday for a second straight day of practice during their mini training camp while the Olympic break continues. Lots of talk about what was doing over in Italy with the players and coaching staff once skate concluded. They will skate for a third straight day today so check back for the Practice Report. Note II: Overseas two of the four Jets players playing for their respective countries were in action on Wednesday. Josh Morrissey was a scratch as he works his way back from injury and he was forced to watch the thrilling OT winner for Canada against Czechia. Nino Niederreiter scored his first goal of the tournament for the Swiss but his team ultimately fell to the Finns in OT. Last up was Connor Hellebuyck (no Kyle Connor who was a healthy scratch) who led his club to victory over Sweden which also ended in extra time. Note III: The Moose took yesterday off after a few days of practice and will be back on the ice for a skate today as they ramp up ahead of their weekend tilt with the Wild here in Winnipeg.
