Just a few lineup questions for Winnipeg after the team took Tuesday off following their 4-3 win over the Kings. We know Tyler Toffoli didn’t play as he was under the weather so we shall have to wait and see if he is good to go. Additionally, the team lost Nino Niederreiter with 12 minutes left in the 3rd and after the game we found out he required stitches after he was cut.
