Note: The Jets were scheduled to practice on Saturday morning but word came out early that they were cancelling it out of an abundance of caution due to potential COVID-19 exposure. Turns out that Tucker Poolman had been placed on the NHL’s CPRA list. Today’s scheduled practice is up in the air. The Jets are set to fly to Toronto to kick off a three-game road trip.

Note II: If the Jets do practice be sure to check back here to find out all the latest. Update: Jets will practice today at 10:15 after all so stay tuned. They’ll have a media availability post-practice and then they fly to Toronto to start three-game road trip. Check out the Practice Report here.

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.
