The Winnipeg Jets are home and will be playing their divisional rivals the Minnesota Wild on this snowy Thursday night. The Jets have played four games on the road and managed to survive quite a scare on defence against the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Jets should have both Josh Morrissey and Dmitry Kulikov back in the lineup tonight. They are still without the services of Bryan Little as he recovers from a concussion. The Jets will also be without Dustin Byfuglien. If he is at the home opener that might be a clue about his future, but it might also mean nothing.
