Winnipeg Jets Morning Papers

Note: The Jets were off on Sunday after returning from a long road trip which saw them go 2-4-0. They’ve slipped in the standings although they remain in 3rd in the Central. They are back home for three games but they’ll focus today on practice as they get set to face the Blue Jackets to kick things off. Suspect there will be some lineup movement as both Morgan Barron and Cole Koepke are expected to return which likely means two of Brad Lambert, Nikita Chibrikov or Parker Ford will be heading down to the AHL. And if Haydn Fleury is recovered sufficiently from his concussion all three could be sent down. Stay tuned for the Practice Report.

Note II: The Moose are off today as they are back in Manitoba following a very successful road trip which saw them lose the first game of five away from Winnipeg before ripping off four straight wins to get themselves back into the Central Division mix.

Note III: Jets prospect Garrett Brown had to be stretchered off the ice on Saturday night during a Denver/Colorado College game but the good news is he was able to return post-game after being evaluated at the hospital.

Note IV: Don’t miss out—grab your official IC merchandise today only before it’s gone! Check it out here.
