Note: When Jets goalie Eric Comrie gave up goals early in the 1st and 2nd periods it looked like it might be a long evening against a bottom of the NHL team from the Canucks. Eventually, the visitors got rolling on their way to a 3-2 OT win. Winnipeg will travel to Anaheim today as they get set to welcome back Connor Hellebuyck and play the second game of this schedule. Today, is a tracel dj
Note II: Earlier in the evening on Wednesday the AHL club of Manitoba actually kicked off the pro hockey festivities as they took on the top team in the entire league over in Grand Rapids. We saw that Jets goalie prospect Thomas Milic was right into the game early but then his teammates, who were incredibly shorthanded, stepped up to win it shorthanded as Phil Di Giuseppe got a beauty OT game-winner .
Note III: Fresh off being named the WHL Player of the Week, Oakbank product and Jets prospect Owen Martin (2025 3rd) scored his 20th goal of the season on Wednesday for Spokane.
