Note: The Jets special teams did them in on Tuesday night in San Jose as they looked to extend their winning streak but instead left northern California with a 2-1 loss after they went 0/5 with the man advantage and also which saw them give up a late goal against on the PK which proved to be the game-winning goal.

Note II: The Moose practiced on Tuesday as they prepare to face their division rival Admirals this weekend in Winnipeg. A few players were missing from skate although no recalls up to the NHL as they sit with just 12 healthy forwards. We shall see if that changes today. Practice is at 10:30 AM.
Note IV: While the team won’t yet confirm a timeline, Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press has said he’s been told the expectation is 6-8 weeks for Kyle Connor. Darren Dreger also discussed this yesterday on Insider Trading on TSN which you can read/watch here.
