The Jets left Vegas yesterday night with a 5-2 loss as they kicked off the road trip with a fair effort against the defending Stanley Cup champs but their special teams continue to not be special and that was the difference in the hockey game.
Skate news:
With the changes in the game last night against the Golden Knights it wasn’t certain if that line juggling would continue or if the team would return to the lines they had been using. As per Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press there are no changes today in Tempe.

Connor-Scheifele-Iafallo
