MTS Centre - Winnipeg, MB
It's Christmas Eve Eve and the Penguins are in Winnipeg to play the Jets. We're pretty sure that Ross Lupaschuk will be on the Penguins blue line tonight, but we could be wrong. Unsurprisingly, it's pretty cold in Winnipeg.
Happy Festivus everyone.
Season Series: 0-1-0
Last Meeting That Counted: October 17, 2011. Jets won 3-2.
What we said in our recap:
