Note II: With Mark Scheifele out and Blake Wheeler/Jansen Harkins not expected to play the Jets recalled Mikey Eyssimont from the Moose today on an emergency basis which means he could be making his NHL debut this evening.

Note III: We want you to join the conversation on the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show once the final buzzer sounds. Tonight’s show will feature another special guest and we will be giving away Moose tickets for their upcoming game on Friday.

Note IV: This weekend CapFriendly reported that the Jets had signed their 2014 4th rounder Henri Nikkanen and 2020 2nd rounder Daniel Torgersson which the team confirmed this morning. Those contracts start next season but the team also announced that both players have joined the Moose on PTOs for the remainder of the season. More competition for the Calder Cup run.
