Winnipeg Jets Practice Report

The Jets returned home from a three-game road trip with zero points added to their standings bank. That shouldn’t come as a surprise as they are mired in a nine-game winless streak (0-6-3) and only have six wins in their last 28 games.

We learned on Sunday that they will be without Logan Stanley tomorrow night when they kick off a five-game homestand which starts against the Golden Knights as he has been suspended for one game as a result of punching Brady Tkachuk in the face in Saturday’s game.
