Note: The Jets rolled into St. Paul on Saturday afternoon and rolled over the Wild 6-0. It was an impressive win considering that Minnesota had been basically unbeatable in regulation at Xcel Energy Center. Speaking of the Wild there was a report on Saturday night that the Jets could be meeting the Wild in Minnesota for a Winter Classic in 2021. Today the Jets are scheduled to practice at the IcePlex at 12 noon before they take on the Habs on Monday. Check out the Practice Report for the latest news and audio.
Note II: It was a wild and wacky Saturday night at Bell MTS Place as the Moose kicked off their six-game homestand with a 6-4 win over the San Antonio Rampage. After the game a lot of people were talking about Mikhail Berdin’s attempted punt of the puck during the 3rd period. The two teams will meet in a re-match this afternoon at 2 pm.
