Gooooooooodddddd Morning!
It was a semi-favourable result for the Winnipeg Jets and their fans on Wednesday night. Not so great that St. Louis rallied from a 3-1 deficit in the third period at Chicago. But the Blues remained a point back of Winnipeg and Nashville for the Division lead when they took the 4-3 shootout loss. Tyler Bozak paved the way for the bonus point, scoring the tying goal with 38.9 seconds to play.

St. Louis has Philadelphia tonight and Vancouver on Saturday. The Canucks visit Nashville tonight, followed by the Blackhawks in Smashville on Saturday. And the Jets are on the road in Colorado tonight – and should have a pretty good idea of what the significance of Saturday Night’s faceoff in Arizona will – or won’t be – by the time the puck drops at 9 p.m. CT.
Another big win for the Manitoba Moose in their late season push for a playoff spot, Mason Appleton scored with 3 1/2 minutes to play for a 3-2 victory over Bakersfield that kept Manitoba in fourth place in the AHL Central. And now within a couple of points of the struggling Iowa Wild for third place after the Minnesota farm team dropped their seventh straight, 4-3 in overtime to Tuscon.
