Jets (and prospective Jets) @ World Championship games:

Kyle Connor (USA) vs. Marko Dano (Slovakia).  (Update: Connor returned to the lineup today but the hero was Marko Dano who scored the winner in OT).

Alexander Burmistrov (Russia) will face Sweden.  (Update: Russia won 4-1 but Alexander Burmistrov did not play).

Mark Scheifele (Canada) up against Patrik Laine (Finland).  During the 1st intermission of the game Jets GM Kevin Cheveldayoff will be on TSN.  (Update: Both Scheifele and Laine finished with no points in a 4-0 win for Finland.  The bigger story for Jets fans was the Corey Perry incident with Patrik Laine).

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.
