Note: The Jets needed two points last night when they welcomed the Coyotes to town and that’s just what they achieved courtesy of the second goal of the game by Mark Scheifele. The contest did have to go to extra time but they find themselves just a  few points back.

Note II: The Moose travelled home on Sunday after a fairly successful road trip. They play four straight in Winnipeg starting tomorrow night against the Rocket.

Jets news:

Sportsnet: Scheifele, Wheeler respond to subtle message with improved play on separate lines. Wieber wrote about the splitting of the two players from the first line.

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.
