Winnipeg Jets Patrik Laine still not ready to go; won’t play against Senators tonight

Jets sniper Patrik Laine wasn’t able to play last night in Toronto as he deals with an upper-body injury which was labelled by his coach on Monday as being a day-to-day type of injury.  Of course with Winnipeg playing six games in nine days (including last night in Toronto) day-to-day could still mean Laine could miss a number of games with the condensed schedule.

When Jets bench boss Paul Maurice spoke today in Ottawa as the Jets got ready to face the Senators he confirmed that Laine would not be a player again for Winnipeg.  He added that Laine was “down at the ice today, he got treatment, we don’t feel he is ready to go tonight. So we’ll hold him out another day.”.

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.
