Note: The Jets kicked things off with their return from a Christmas break on Sunday with a pair of emergency recalls. They then got back in action last night with an evening practice in Winnipeg which featured most of their club. They are set to practice at 11 AM.

Note II: New rules from the NHL and NHLPA could impact the Moose with the formation of a taxi squad which will be in effect until the NHL All-Star Game. And the first player on that squad we now know will be Ville Heinola who was placed on it this morning.

Jets news:

Winnipeg Free Press: Jets back to work. As Mike writes this is anything but a normal return to work following the Christmas holidays.

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.
