Insider Chris Johnston just reported:

Mark Scheifele produced another positive COVID-19 test today. He remains in Covid protocol and is out of the #NHLJets lineup.

Which means Jets will go 11/7 tonight.

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.
