Note: The Jets put an end to their winless streak on Sunday with a big 3-1 victory over the Sabres in Buffalo. Today they are off ahead of a homestand that begins on Tuesday night when the New York Rangers are here.
Note II: The Moose also picked up a win on Sunday as they defeated the Stars 2-0 to continue their red-hot play inside Bell MTS Place which is now at ten games (9-0-0-1). Mikhail Berdin picked up his first ever AHL shutout. The team is off today but some players will be on the ice for the backyard rink which is a promotion that sees players attend a rink of a local family. We’ll have more from this event on site later.

Sportsnet: Jets could put top prospect Sami Niku on trade market. I don’t see Niku being a prospect the Jets can really afford to move considering the left side of this organization.
