Note: The Jets faced a tough Bruins team last night which saw them give up an early goal and they weren’t able to recover despite lots of good chances which ultimately saw them drop the decision 3-0 to the top team in the NHL. Today they are scheduled to practice before they head on the road for a pair of Central Division games starting with the Predators on Saturday.
Note II: The Moose are in Chicago where they will practice today ahead of a pair of games this weekend against the Wolves. Manitoba sits just two points back of 1st place so it will be critical to take advantage of a Wolves team that sits at the bottom of the division although they have been playing better of late.
Note III: The Ice will look to make team history tomorrow as they go for their 54th win of the season when they host the Raiders on Saturday.
Note IV: Rick Bowness delivered the news following morning skate on Thursday that veteran forward Sam Gagner had hip surgery and is done for the season.
