Projected Lineup for tonight:

Forwards
Kyle Connor - Mark Scheifele - Alex Iafallo
Cole Perfetti - Jonathan Toews - Gabriel Vilardi
Nino Niederreiter - Adam Lowry - Vladislav Namestnikov
Cole Koepke - Morgan Barron - Tanner Pearson

Defencemen
Josh Morrissey - Dylan DeMelo
Dylan Samberg - Elias Salomonsson
Logan Stanley - Luke Schenn

Goaltenders
Connor Hellebuyck
Eric Comrie

EDIT: Zhilkin replaced with Barron.

Looks like Barron is back in the lineup tonight; it's nice to have him back. I wonder if I'd have preferred Pearson to get the healthy scratch and keep Zhilkin in though, he's had a pretty decent couple games and I think Barron would mesh really well with the young guys.

Just not sure what Pearson adds to that line.

Jets win! Final score 6–2.

Goals for the Jets:

Jonathan Toews (Vilardi, Scheifele)
Tanner Pearson (Barron, DeMelo)
Josh Morrissey (Scheifele, Toews)
Logan Stanley Gabriel Vilardi (Morrissey, Scheifele) Mark Scheifele (Iafallo, Connor)

Goals for Minnesota:

Danial Yurov (Middleton, Tarasenko)
Marcus Johansson (Boldy, Hartman)

I didn’t get a chance to watch tonight, but seems like the Jets are finding their footing after the Christmas break. Points for players all over the place these days.

I’m particularly happy for Toews finally starting to find his groove. He might end up becoming a critical piece I think a lot were hoping he would.
