Note:  The Jets were off on Tuesday after defeating the Kings 3-2 in L.A. on Monday.   Today they get ready for the first game in a back-to-back as they take on the Ducks in Anaheim.  Morning skate gets underway at 11:30 am PDT (1:30 pm CDT) so be sure to check back here to for the latest lineup news and pre-game audio via the pre-game report.

Note II:  The Moose wrapped up their six-game homestand last night against the Gulls with a big 4-3 OT victory which saw recently returned Kristian Vesalaien score a beauty in the extra frame to seal the deal.  They are off today as they get ready to kick off a five-game road trip which gets underway in Colorado with practice on Thursday and a game Friday night.

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.
