Note II: This evening, after the final buzzer sounds between Winnipeg and Los Angeles, we want you to be part of the conversation on the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show as we discuss and analyze the results of the game starting around 12:10 AM CST.

Note III: The Moose were in action against Texas last night as they concluded a quick two-game set in Manitoba. They were looking to keep their points streak alive but, while they had plenty of chances, were unable to beat Stars goalie Remi Poirier who shut them out. They are off today.

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.
