Winnipeg Jets Morning Papers

Note:  The Jets kick off six straight games at home tonight with the Hurricanes who played and won last night in St. Paul.  Carolina is one of the hottest teams in the NHL right now as they are off to a 4-0-1 which included them outshooting the Wild last night 57-23.  Morning skate gets underway at 9:30 am (Let the pre-game report to get up to speed) and then puck drop is at 6 pm.

Note II:  The Moose were outplayed last night and fell to 1-3 on the season after the Senators got a measure of revenge with a 6-2 win at Bell MTS Place.  They will now have another week of practice as they prepare for a pair of games next weekend against the Rampage.
