Note: The Jets player breaks ends today and the team is back in business as they get ready to kick off nine of the next ten games at home inside the friendly (for the opposition) confines of Bell MTS Place. They will get started with a practice here this afternoon at 2 pm and ahead of same they announced they have recalled Cam Schilling and Logan Shaw from the Moose. Be sure to check back for the Practice Report as we will hopefully have an update on the laundry list of injured players.
Note II: Just like the Jets the Moose are also back on the ice today after their All-Star break concluded yesterday. They are getting set to wrap up two more games on the road in Illinois. They will practice tonight at the All-State Arena before they take on the Rockford IceHogs on Friday night. Like the Jets they too will be hoping to get some players back including David Gustafsson.
