While the focus in the city is mostly on the Alumni game which takes place in a few hours we shouldn’t forget that tomorrow’s Heritage Classic between the Jets and Oilers will count for two points. Since it is an afternoon start the Jets won’t have a game day skate so you should expect these to be the lines on Sunday. Via Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun the lines at the MTS Centre are as follows:
Ehlers-Perreault-Wheeler
Laine-Scheifele-Stafford
Connor/Thorburn-Burmistrov-Tanev
Matthias-Lowry-Armia
Morrissey-Byfuglien
Enstrom-Myers
Stuart/Chiarot-Postma
Hutchinson & Hellebuyck
Coach Audio:
Paul Maurice: On how this type of event is different? Who are some of his heroes he got to meet? What does he want his players to learn from the alumni? Unique preparation for the game. Laine having even more eyes on him, how will that effect him? On whether he will put the veterans in the lineup for today’s game? Status of Little.
He's closing in on his first game since January 13th.
The 2024 2nd rounder is in Winnipeg where he'll spend the rest of the season…
