Winnipeg Jets Practice Report

The Jets are coming off their second consecutive loss, last night losing 6-4 to the Panthers. Today they are across the state (or more accurately northwest) in Tampa where they will prepare to face the Tampa Bay Lightning tomorrow to conclude their three-game road trip.

Practice notes:

According to radio play-by-play voice Paul Edmonds the Jets held an optional skate at the Bolts practice facility. Those that didn’t skate had a dry land workout outside the rink.

Starting goalie vs Bolts:

Paul confirms Connor Hellebuyck will start tomorrow night against Tampa.

Coach Maurice: Getting back to their structure. Need for better starts. On not hitting a panic button. Managing time/energy. Going up against the best team in the NHL. Same lineup? Tucker Poolman’s development. On Tyler Myers.

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.
