Note: The Jets were off on Sunday and will also be taking off Monday. Of course with all the rumours swirling (see below) who knows if it will be a completely quiet day in Winnipeg. If it is then we start back up tomorrow with the Jets hitting the ice for practice ahead of their three-game road trip which begins Wednesday in Colorado.
Note II: The Moose home points streak came to a conclusion at 12 games on Sunday as they dropped a 6-5 decision to the Admirals. It was an interesting loss for Mikhail Berdin who came into the game in relief of Eric Comrie with the score 5-2 for Milwaukee. Berdin made 15 saves on 15 shots (no goals against) but ended up with the loss. Manitoba concludes the six-game homestand with a chance for revenge against the Admirals at 2 pm.
