The Winnipeg Jets and Detroit Red Wings are ready to go in the first of a three game road trip that will have a quick game at home before heading out for five more road games. Fun times are coming. The Jets are back to full strength and have swapped out Dylan Samberg for Ville Heinola tonight. It is important to give both Samberg and Heinola playing time so expect this to happen a fair amount unless a player is traded.
The Jets will be sticking with their normal lines that have been settled since they had four players return from injury including three forwards. Expect them to remain fairly steady unless there is a need to shake things up like a major scoring slump or an injury. As for the goalies, expect both starters to start and Connor Hellebuyck to Hellebuyck things as always. Oh and the defence to tighten up.
