Note: The Jets return to the ice as they get ready to face the Blue Jackets tomorrow night. Big questions surround the status of Adam Lowry, Mathieu Perreault and Dmitry Kulikov. The Jets will be on the ice at IcePlex at 11 am and we will update the site when news is available.

Note II: Following a weekend split with the Monsters, including a 4-1 win yesterday afternoon the Moose will take the day off today and then resume skating on Tuesday. The team will head off on a three game road trip to Iowa and conclude with a game in Chicago.

Jets news:

Winnipeg Free Press: Hellebuyck steps up Winnipeg’s game. (Paywall). It will be interesting to see which goalie the Jets bench boss uses in tomorrow night’s contest against Columbus. Does he ride the hot hand or does he return to Mason and allow him to face his old club?

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.
