Note: Sounds like most of the Jets stayed off the ice on Sunday following the team’s disappointing loss to the Leafs the night prior before they jetted to Chicago. Morning skate for Winnipeg gets underway at 11:30 AM CST so stay tuned for the pre-game report to ensure you’re up-to-date on the latest. Puck drop is at 7:30 PM CST.
Note II: This evening, after the final buzzer sounds between Winnipeg and Chicago, 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 10:10 PM CST.
Note III: The Moose are back in Winnipeg and will have some time to prepare before they kick off four straight in the city starting on Friday when they welcome the juggernaut Griffins to town. Grand Rapids have lost just THREE games in regulation (in 36 games). That’s starts tomorrow as they are off today.
Note IV: Jets prospect Kevin He (2024 4th) with a big afternoon finishing with 1G 3A in a Firebirds win. His goal stood as the game-winner for Flint. His best friend and fellow prospect Kieron Walton (2024 6th) scored a goal from long-range on Sunday which was his 28th of the season (2nd most points in OHL).

NHL.com: Toews anticipates ‘very emotional’ return to Chicago with Jets. Not many players in today’s NHL stick with the same team for very long. After 16 seasons in Illinois with the Hawks it is likely gonna be very weird for him heading to the other side of the rink for the first time.
Sportsnet: Jets’ Toews ‘thankful’ for time with Blackhawks ahead of Chicago return. Gonna be quite the roar inside the United Center when he gets announced in the starting lineup.
