The Jets resumed normal practice mode today following yesterday well attended open practice.

Evander KaneFocus today.  Importance of the four days off.  Playing six games in next 10 days.  Would he have thought that by now he would have been in the playoffs?  Getting the energy back after time off.  

Ondrej PavelecPlaying six games in next 10 days.  Last time he was in the playoffs (AHL with Chicago Wolves).  Would he have believed that at this point in his career he would still not have been in the playoffs?  Importance of the four day rest.  Getting the momentum back from last week.  (Says he hopes the Bolts will be frozen from the weather here).

Olli JokinenCurrent position of the team.  Can only do what is within your control.  No time to feel sorry for yourself in this league.  How fleeting getting to the playoffs can be!  Dealing with reality of their situation.  

Chris ThorburnThe week ahead.  Feeling pressure with 6 games to go.  Looking ahead to the Tampa Bay Lightning.

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.
