The Winnipeg Jets are playing the Edmonton Oilers in their first of two afternoon games this wonderful Louis Riel Day Weekend. The Oilers have been playing better since firing head coach Dave Tippet and bring up their AHL coach Jay Woodcroft. The Jets have been running hot and cold like they have all season. They took Ville Heinola out of the lineup just because and it made them a worse team overall even if they still got the win. That’s how they work folks. The Oilers will be without Jesse Puljujarvi.
