The Winnipeg Jets and Philadelphia Flyers are playing tonight and it should be a good game for the Jets to get themselves back on track prior to a long break from playing games outside of the All Star Weekend for Josh Morrissey and Connor Hellebuyck. Outside of that, the Jets might just have some time to get away from the Polar Vortex from Siberia that Winnipeg is currently in.
The game will have the lines they have used for a few games even though they have not been getting as good of results as they have with other lines including lines from when the Jets were depleted by injuries. They will be without Dylan DeMelo on defence. While DeMelo is rarely a big offensive player, he has been a steady presence on the Jets defence since he was traded here from San Jose a couple seasons ago.
