NHL.com:  At the RinkPatrick was at the MTS Centre and provides this update from the rink.

CBC:  7 good contracts on Canadian NHL teams.  Not a tremendous surprise on the choice for Winnipeg.

Illegal Curve:  Game day set upSetting up tonight’s Jets and Hurricanes game with projected lines, starting goalies, games notes and more.

Illegal Curve:  Jets vs. Lightning projected lineupsTake a look at what the lines looked like after practice today and what combos you should expect to see at the MTS Centre this evening.

Illegal Curve:  Coach Maurice pre-game scrum (audio).  Does he like what he’s seeing from his team heading into the game?  Something he can do to keep the momentum going from last going?  How long can he go without a PP goal before he loses patience?  How much does he focus on his team vs. looking at other specific team that they are facing?  Neutral zone talk.  Do the Jets players need to talk (to each other on the bench) more?  Empowering entire team to be leaders.

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
