While there was plenty of joy in joyville after the Jets demolished the Canucks last night they will have to put that one in the rearview mirror as they turn their focus to their next opponent which is something Winnipeg has done a pretty good job of, regardless of whether the game prior was a win or loss. They face an underperforming Kraken team who are 19-23-3 which puts them eight points back of the final wild card spot.
We will have to see if there is any further progress with any of the four injured players (Haydn Fleury, Vlad Namestnikov, Colin Miller and Mason Appleton).
