Lowry's Wait Almost Over Jets Centre Itching for Return to Lineup Following Injury Winnipeg Free Press https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/hockey/jets/lowrys-wait-almost-over-454605623.html Lowry's wait almost over Jets centre itching for return to lineup following injury By: Mike McIntyre With his teammates on a red-hot run, Adam Lowry is itching to get in on the action. The big centre won’t have to wait much longer. Lowry was a full participant in Wednesday’s optional Winnipeg Jets practice, shedding his yellow no-contact jersey for nearly an hour of hard skating and battle drills. Lowry has been out of the lineup since aggravating a nagging upper-body injury Oct. 12 in Vancouver. While he’ll miss an eighth-straight game tonight when Winnipeg hosts the Dallas Stars, he’s targeting Saturday night against the Montreal Canadiens for his return. "I felt good. I think that any time you’re hurt you want to be out there. Sometimes it takes a little longer than you expected. But it’s nice to finally get some contact again, get battling. I’m starting to feel good. I feel like I’m getting close," Lowry said following Wednesday’s skate. "I’m excited. It’s nice that the team’s playing well. It makes it a little bit easier. Hopefully they’re going to continue that, and I’ll be able to jump in and we’ll just keep going from where we’re at right now." Therein lies the problem for Jets head coach Paul Maurice, albeit a good one to have. With a key player such as Lowry set to return, who comes out of the lineup for a team that has just one regulation loss in its past nine games (6-1-2)? Andrew Copp has been centring the Jets’ third line, but Lowry’s return to that spot will likely move Copp to a bottom-six wing position, where he’ll be competing for ice time with the likes of Shawn Matthias, Brandon Tanev, Joel Armia, Brendan Lemieux and Marko Dano. Lowry has had a birds-eye view of his team from the press box, and believes strong goaltending and attention to defensive detail have been the big improvements. "I think the biggest thing you notice from up top is just how well we’re defending right now. We’re giving up some shots, but a lot of them are from the outside. If they’re getting good chances, we’re getting sticks on their sticks or sticks on pucks and causing them to miss the net. And when they do get their chances, our goalies have been there," he said. Lowry remains on injured reserve. Once he’s activated, the Jets will have to make a roster move to remain at the 23-player limit. The logical choice would be to send rookie defenceman Tucker Poolman to the Manitoba Moose, to give him some playing time. He’s only dressed for three of the team’s 11 games this season, with his last action coming Oct. 17. He’s currently one of eight healthy defencemen on the roster. Poolman doesn’t have to pass through waivers. "He’s an older player but he’s waiverable, and that tells you that he doesn’t have a lot of pro experience yet. But I would say that about any of the players that are waiverable. We won’t let them sit too, too long before they got to get some games," Maurice said Wednesday, when asked about Poolman’s status. "He’s the first guy on the right side (as an injury replacement) for sure. I’ll just leave it at that. I don’t think it needs to go too, too much longer. We’ve got to get him into a hockey game." Lowry wouldn’t reveal specifics about his injury, only to say it wasn’t a concussion. "It kind of happened almost on a practice day. I was able to get through the game in Vancouver, and it just didn’t settle down like we thought it would. It kind of just lingered. It was just one of those things where it didn’t progress as quickly as we hoped," said Lowry. "It kind of lingered on. Initially, we thought it was only going to be a couple days, a couple games, and here we are at seven games going on eight (Thursday). But I’m happy with the way it’s coming along. I don’t think there’s going to be any long-term effects or anything like that." Only 11 skaters, and goalie Steve Mason, participated in Wednesday’s practice, which took place less than 12 hours after the Jets returned on a late-night flight after beating the Minnesota Wild 2-1. Winnipeg is in the midst of a stretch of playing seven games in 12 days, so Maurice said it’s important to monitor energy levels. Winnipeg will face a tough challenge in the Stars, who come into town at 7-5-0, and with plenty of firepower from the likes of Tyler Seguin, Jamie Benn and Alexander Radulov. They’ve also been getting terrific goaltending from free-agent signing Ben Bishop, as new coach Ken Hitchcock looks to tap into their potential. "They’re trying to play a better defensive hockey game, and I think they’re dialed into that. They got some good, high-end skill and speed up front. They got some good size, and now they got some real good goaltending. Pretty similar," Maurice said. "It’s always (got) the potential for a real exciting game. I think, probably, both teams are hopeful it can be real exciting and played well at the same time, which would be a change from last year." Winnipeg is off to a 2-0-0 start within their division this season, with both wins coming against Minnesota. https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/hockey/jets/hellebuyck-staking-his-claim-to-blue- paint-454605003.html Hellebuyck staking his claim to blue paint By: Mike McIntyre It appears to be Connor’s crease to lose. Connor Hellebuyck will get the start in net tonight for Winnipeg, his eighth of the young season. He is 6-0-1 this season with a sparkling 1.91 GAA and .940 save percentage, which puts him among the league’s best goaltenders so far. Jets coach Paul Maurice said he wants to get Steve Mason (0-3-1, 4.84 GAA and .872 SV%) into another game soon, following a strong performance last week against the Blue Jackets in Columbus, and has a plan mapped out. "I got a flow chart, mental flow chart, of how this goes if it goes well (Thursday) or not, with each goalie, where you would end up putting guys in," Maurice said Wednesday, without tipping his hand. "Thought it was important Steve got back in and got a good game under his belt. I think the schedule now sets itself up, so there’s less concern about that. We got practice time coming up, and Connor is going well right now." Keeping strange company The Jets were two points behind the Vegas Golden Knights, tied with the Vancouver Canucks and two points ahead of the Colorado Avalanche prior to Wednesday night’s NHL action. Now just imagine, if you will, the panic that would have ensued around these parts if you had told fans a month ago they’d be sharing company in the standings with those teams as of Nov. 1. The natural assumption would the Jets had just experienced an absolutely dreadful October that had them near the basement of the league, given where many had predicted Colorado, Vancouver and Vegas to finish. But the numbers don’t lie. And there are the Jets, currently tied for second in the Central Division and fourth in the Western Conference, while the Avalanche, Canucks and Golden Knights also enjoy surprisingly strong starts to their seasons. Perreault back on ice Jets forward Mathieu Perreault skated on his own Wednesday for the first time since being injured Oct. 14 while blocking a shot. He is expected to rejoin the team for practices after the Montreal game, and will come on next week’s road trip through Dallas, Vegas and Arizona, with the possibility of playing by the end. He remains on injured reserve. Like centre Adam Lowry, activating him would require a roster move be made. "All these questions (about roster decisions), and they’re good ones, we got two more guys potentially coming back in. "So many times, you don’t need an answer because something else creeps up and all the decisions you think you’re going to have to make five days from now never materialize, so we’ll play it as it comes," Maurice said. Jets all-in to fight cancer The annual "Hockey Fights Cancer" night has been set for Nov. 27 at Bell MTS Place. Players will wear special jerseys during the pre-game warmup prior to taking on the Minnesota Wild, while players and coaches will sport lavender-coloured ties. Raffle tickets will be sold for $5 at all Jets Gear locations and in the concourse at upcoming home games for a chance to win the jerseys. Fans can buy autographed mystery pucks and mini sticks on the concourse on Nov. 27. An online auction following the game will also give fans a chance to bid on Hockey Fights Cancer painted goalie masks worn by Hellebuyck and Mason, along with player-worn ties, game-used lavender-taped sticks and more.All proceeds will be directed to CancerCare Manitoba’s pediatric clinical trials.

  • Jets Expansion Draft Plan Coming Into Focus? Signing Dano Could Be Indicator
    Winnipeg Sun http://www.winnipegsun.com/2017/06/13/jets-expansion-draft-plan-coming-into-focus Jets expansion draft plan coming into focus? Signing Dano could be indicator BY KEN WIEBE, WINNIPEG SUN There are still several moving parts and a few issues left to uncover or resolve, but the expansion plans for the Winnipeg Jets are coming into focus. While it's still unclear whether the Jets asked veteran defenceman Toby Enstrom to waive his no-movement clause before Monday's deadline, you'd have to think the conversation took place. When Jets GM Kevin Cheveldayoff was asked directly about the topic of no-movement clauses at his year-end address, he said all options would be explored. Officially, the Jets won't be commenting on the process until after the protected lists are revealed on Sunday morning. Based on experience, one shouldn't expect too much detail to be given, even after the expansion draft picks are made public. It's a sensitive subject and one of the biggest reasons the NHL GM's didn't want the lists to be made public. Yes, it's possible the Jets could buy out the final year of Enstrom's $5.75 million contract, but that appears to be the most unlikely result. The Jets haven't bought out a player since the franchise relocated and it's hard to imagine Enstrom would be the first, especially since they still value his services when healthy. Buying him out would be both a costly proposition and leave a void on the left side of the defence depth chart.

    PREGAME NOTES 2019 TIM HORTONS NHL HERITAGE CLASSIC WINNIPEG JETS vs. CALGARY FLAMES MOSAIC STADIUM, REGINA, SASK. – OCT. 26, 2019 JETS, FLAMES FACE OFF OUTDOORS The Winnipeg Jets and Calgary Flames face off tonight in the 2019 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic (10 p.m. ET / 8 p.m. CST, CBC, SN1, CITY, TVAS2, NBCSN) – the League’s 28th regular-season outdoor game and fifth in the Heritage Classic series. The Jets and Flames each have participated in one prior outdoor game, both under the Heritage Classic umbrella. Winnipeg played host to the 2016 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic at Investors Group Field, falling 3-0 to the Edmonton Oilers. Nine Jets players who appeared in that game remain with the team: Kyle Connor, Nikolaj Ehlers, Connor Hellebuyck, Patrik Laine, Adam Lowry, Josh Morrissey, Mathieu Perreault, Mark Scheifele and Blake Wheeler. Current Calgary goaltender Cam Talbot started for Edmonton in that contest, stopping all 31 shots he faced for the third shutout in outdoor NHL game history. Current Jets forward Mark Letestu scored the winning goal (while shorthanded), as a member of the Oilers. And current Flames forward Milan Lucic recorded two penalty minutes for Edmonton. Calgary served as hosts for the 2011 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic at McMahon Stadium, defeating the Montreal Canadiens 4-0. Two players who appeared in that game remain with the Flames: Mikael Backlund and Mark Giordano. Overall, the Jets feature 11 players who have participated in a prior outdoor NHL game (minimum: 1 GP in 2019-20), while the Flames have four. Talbot leads that group with four such appearances, though he served as a backup goaltender for three of them (2014 SS w/ NYR [2 GP], 2019 SS w/ PHI).

  • Dobber's 2010-11 Fantasy Guide
    DOBBER’S 2010-11 FANTASY GUIDE DOBBERHOCKEY.COM – HOME OF THE TOP 300 FANTASY PLAYERS I think we’re at the point in the fantasy hockey universe where DobberHockey.com is either known in a fantasy league, or the GM’s are sleeping. Besides my column in The Hockey News’ Ultimate Pool Guide, and my contributions to this year’s Score Forecaster (fifth year doing each), I put an ad in McKeen’s. That covers the big three hockey pool magazines and you should have at least one of them as part of your draft prep. The other thing you need, of course, is this Guide right here. It is not only updated throughout the summer, but I also make sure that the features/tidbits found in here are unique. I know what’s in the print mags and I have always tried to set this Guide apart from them. Once again, this is an automatic download – just pick it up in your downloads section. Look for one or two updates in August, then one or two updates between September 1st and 14th. After that, when training camp is in full swing, I will be updating every two or three days right into October. Make sure you download the latest prior to heading into your draft (and don’t ask me on one day if I’ll be updating the next day – I get so many of those that I am unable to answer them all, just download as late as you can). Any updates beyond this original release will be in bold blue.
