The Jets got to Chicago on Tuesday night after the win in Buffalo and had a day off on Wednesday.  Today, they are back on the ice as they prepare for back-to-back games against the Hawks on Friday and the Wild on Saturday.

According to Brian Munz of TSN 1290 Winnipeg “Adam Lowry & Brandon Tanev are in a non contact jerseys” and below are the lines the Jets are rolling today in practice.

Goalie for tomorrow:

Coach Maurice confirms that Connor Hellebuyck gets the start against the Hawks.

Health Updates:

Neither Adam Lowry nor Brandon Tanev will be a player against Chicago according to coach Maurice who added “We will re-visit it for Minny but again unless they feel they are at 95 for Minny, we will hold them out.”

Mathieu Perreault

Coach Maurice:  On Wheeler/Hellebuyck getting selected for the All-Star game.  Status of Lowry/Tanev.  Why is Mathieu Perreault “easy” to play with?  When is it like to the team when a guy like Perreault works so hard?  On today’s practice.  Getting a chance to watch Hawks/Wild face off.  Looking at the video of the 3rd period in Buffalo.  Did he have to say much about the 3rd to his players?  Hellebuyck starts?

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.
