The Winnipeg Jets and Vancouver Canucks are playing each other again and the Jets should be much improved from their last game. After beating the Tampa Bay Lightning on the strength of special teams, a good goaltending performance from Connor Hellebuyck, and the Jets slowly improving throughout the game, they should be roaring to go this afternoon.
Afternoon games are weird and frankly annoying. What is also annoying is that unlike when CBC used to have Hockey Night in Canada, we never get weekend afternoon games optioned to the National Broadcaster anymore. Anyways, Jets lines (no Canucks lines because someone was running behind on errands and is still trying to eat lunch).
