Note:  After the game, be sure to check us out for all the post-game reaction. As soon as illegalcurve.com is updated we notify you via Twitter | Facebook | Instagram.

Jets news:

Winnipeg Sun:  Jets look to flip the script on Flames.  These Flames are red-hot right now and it is going to take a very strong effort from Winnipeg to douse them.  Ken gets you set up for tonight’s contest.

Calgary Herald:  How they match-up.  A look ahead at the game from the Calgary perspective from a beat writer that covers the Flames.

Sportsnet: Mark Scheifele lives and breathes hockey every day.  (Video).  Mark Scheifele spends almost every waking moment talking, or thinking about hockey and when it comes to success, he’ll do anything and everything to be considered one of the league’s best.

theScore:  Laine says he needs to produce away from home.  Just imagine what it is going to be like when his road proficiency matches that of his ability at home to put the puck in the net.

Illegal Curve:  Jets vs. Flame pre-game reportTake a look at what the Jets and Flames projected lines, D pairs and starting goalie are for tonight’s game at the Scotiabank Saddledome. Jets Audio:  Patrik Laine and Marko Dano.

Illegal Curve:  Morning Papers.  If you missed any of the news we have you covered.

Jets audio:

Illegal Curve:  Coach Maurice pre-game scrum.  Why tonight makes sense for Hutchinson.  Why he’s changed up the lines.  What makes sense to move Marko Dano to move up to the 1st line.  On what Stafford and Perreault need to do.  Reinforcing the things this team did right in last weekends back-to-back.  On usage of his lines.  When facing a team playing as well as Calgary, will it force the Jets to pay better attention to detail.  Finding consistency with all the injuries.  On the Jets schedule.  On the schedule eliminating Winnipeg practice time.  On getting Little back.  On Marko Dano.  On coaching Laine.

Moose news:

Illegal Curve:  Monsters beat Moose 2-1 in shootout and sweep weekend series.  Includes video of both Kyle Connor’s goal and shootout goal as well as the 1st intermission Teddy Bear toss. Ends with post-game audio from Coach Vincent, Kyle Connor and Ondrej Pavelec.

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.
