Note:  The Jets finally ended their winless streak with a big 6-3 win over the Coyotes.  They will have a day off today before getting back into the swing of things with a practice on Friday.

Note II:  The Moose will hit the ice for practice today in Texas following a 4-3 loss last night against the Stars.  In an interesting quirk in their schedule they remain in the state but play next two against the San Antonio Rampage before returning to play in Cedar Park against the Stars next Tuesday.

Note III:  Tune into NHL This Week tonight on TSN 1290 Winnipeg from 6 pm until 8 pm for two hours of Winnipeg Jets and NHL talk.
