Note: Puck drop is at 7 PM CST as the Jets go up against the Stars in Winnipeg. After the game, be sure to check out illegalcurve.com for all the post-game reaction.

Note II: We want you to be part of the conversation on on the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show as we discuss and analyze the results of the game.

Note III: With Haydn Fleury skating in a normal jersey the presumption was, provided he came out fine after skate ended, it would mean the Jets would have to make a move to ensure roster compliance. Sure enough they did just that sending top D prospect Elias Salomonsson back to the Moose.

Note IV: Some pre-game reading on goalie prospect Domenic DiVincentiis in the latest feature from our IC Intern Zach Nolan From street hockey pads to NHL dreams.

Note V: Darren Dreger with a big update via Insider Trading on Winnipeg Jets goalie Connor Hellebuyck who he indicated “I’d look to have him back in the net starting for the Jets potentially next week”. That would be quite the reduction in time missed from the initial assessment.
