Team Hawerchuk started at 10 AM:

Lots of intensity from new Jets bench boss Rick Bowness who was smacking his stick on the ice during the first on ice session with his new club.

And while I may have been too busy yapping to pay attention to the lines and D pairs thankfully some of the other guys were not. As per Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press they looked like this:

Connor-Scheifele-Ehlers
Toninato-Gustafsson-Gagner
Malott-Nikkanen-Reichel
Polei-Zhilkin-Lambert-Torgersson rotating

Morrissey-Kovacevic
Chisholm-DeMelo
Stanley-Gawanke
Sautner-Bauer

Hellebuyck
Rittich

The afternoon crew is underway at the IcePlex. Again as per Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press they looked like this:

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
