Note:  The Jets had the day off on Monday but were still making news as captain Blake Wheeler received 2nd Star of the Week honours which coincided with his becoming the first player since relocation to put up 500 points with Winnipeg.  Today they will hit the ice for practice at 11:00 am out at the IcePlex as they prepare to face the Capitals in game three of this four-game home stand.  Check out the Winnipeg Jets Practice Report for more info after 11.

Note II:  The Moose kick off the four-game road trip today in San Antonio in the always fun school day game which gets underway at 10:30 am.

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.
