Can the Jets make it two wins in a row?  They had a warm-up skate to get ready for the visiting Kings and then spoke to the media.

Blake Wheeler – What does he expect from the Kings?  Facing teams coming after a back-to-back.  Recipe to utilize speed.  Did he watch Kings/Wild game?  His knowledge of the Kings.  

Ondrej Pavelec – What does he know about the Kings team?  Did he watch the game last night?  Any players in particular that stand out? Anything he wants to do better this game?  Is confidence higher right now?  Does he still get excited for home openers?  

Andrew Ladd –  What does he know about the Kings?  Is it a good test for the Jets to go against L.A.?  Did he watch the game last night?  Keys to going against Quick.  Importance of back-to-back wins and protecting the “house”.  Is it easy to judge mood of the city by how the team is doing?  Winning can get away the winter blues.  Does he still enjoy the home opener?  Is this team better prepared to handle the upper echelon teams?  

Jacob Trouba – Having family in the crowd.  His thoughts on the Kings.   Does he look forward to playing a heavier team like L.A.
