Note: The Jets returned from Finland on Saturday and will have a practice today at 11 am out at the IcePlex. While they were returning to the city the NHL Department of Player Safety announced that Brendan Lemieux will have a hearing for his illegal check to the head.

Note II: The Moose split their series with the Wolves this weekend including a loss last night 4-1. They did get Eric Comrie and Tucker Poolman back from the Jets on Saturday. Today they will be meeting their fans at the Assiniboine Park Zoo from 1:30 to 3 pm.

Jets news:

Winnipeg Sun: What next for Jets? Reset coming after Global Series. The Jets sit well positioned in the West having not played optimally up to this point. Still some work to do as this team tries to regain their form from last season.

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.
