Winnipeg Jets players audio from MTS Centre

The players had a brisk practice today.

Notes:

– James Wright wore an orange non-contact jersey,

– Mark Stuart was wearing a normal jersey.

– Ron Hainsey and Nik Antropov were not on the ice (took maintenance days).

Ondrej Pavelec – Being ready to face the Hurricanes.  Is he refreshed?  (He takes issue with being asked about playing games and/or time off).  Why does he like afternoon games?  More Hurricanes talk.  Staying out of the penalty box in Pittsburgh.  Chance to put Carolina well behind them.

Evander Kane –   Being in a playoff race.  Has he done any analyzing of the schedule?  Chance to deliver a knock out punch to Carolina?  What’s the mood in the room considering trade deadline?  Thoughts on trade deadline.

Mark Stuart – Is he ready to go?  Injury occurred during Ovechkin collision.  If it was up to him would he play?  Sitting out during the stretch run.  What has he seen from the Press Box?  Chance to widen gap between themselves and Carolina.

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.
