Note:  Following last night’s 5-3 loss in Nashville the Jets will have the day off today.  They will resume activity on Wednesday in L.A. as they face off against the Kings.

Note II:  You won’t be without hockey tonight however as the Moose look to put the cherry on top of a very successful four game home stand in a re-match with Laval this evening at Bell MTS Place.  Puck drop is at 7 pm.
