The Jets and Blues are all tied up 2-2 after four games after the home team took each game in their respective city including yesterday in St. Louis which saw Winnipeg fall 5-1. For the second straight game Connor Hellebuyck was chased from the net in the 3rd period. About the only positive right now for the Presidents’ Trophy winners is the imminent return of Gabriel Vilardi who took warm-up on Sunday but ultimately didn’t play.

Recall official:

While we learned who would be in the taxi squad last week the official recall came today. The only guys not brought up were Parker Ford who is continuing to work his way back to full health after having his cast removed and resuming shooting and Brad Lambert who is dealing with the effects of an ankle sprain.

Skate news:

It was a heavily optional with the taxi squad guys skating with some regulars including Gabriel Vilaridi who was getting in another skate.

Players media:

Please note our video starts about halfway thorough the video with Jets goalie Connor Hellebuyck so you can hear the audio well and the video begins at the 3 minute mark.

Coach media:

Up next:

The Jets will practice again tomorrow. Start your day with all the latest Jets and Moose news in the AM Papers on illegalcurve.com which are available starting at 7 AM CDT and then check back for the Practice Report.

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.
