Note: Right from the start last night in St. Louis the Jets got off to a bad start against the Blues and they never recovered. Even when they got it close disaster struck to keep them out of the third game of this series. They were scheduled to practice today but they are instead taking a day off.

In the WHL it will be Brayden Yager (2023 1st) and his Lethbridge squad in the Eastern Conference Finals.
