    The Winnipeg Jets take on the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday night.

    The Winnipeg Jets have travelled to Vancouver and have begun preparations for one of the biggest tests of their season.

    Having previously taken down the then-first place Canucks in Vancouver on a Saturday night showdown last month, Winnipeg will look to replicate its luck once again in the 9:00 PM central time slot on Saturday.

    Having just shut out the Seattle Kraken 3-0 on the road Friday night, Winnipeg will enter a little worn out, but will need to bring its best game against the Western Conference's top dog.

    Sitting four points behind Vancouver - and two behind the Dallas Stars - Winnipeg enters the night with the best points percentage in the Western Conference.

    Winnipeg Jets expected line combinations for Saturday, March 9 vs. Vancouver: 

    Connor-Scheifele-Namestnikov

    Ehlers-Monahan-Iafallo

    Appleton-Lowry-Niederreiter

    Barron-Gustafsson-Perfetti

    Morrissey-DeMelo

    Dillon-Pionk

    Samberg-Schmidt

    Hellebuyck

    Injured: Vilardi

    Healthy scratches: Kupari, Stanley

    Saturday's game gets underway from Rogers Arena at 9:00 PM central time. It can be viewed live on Sportsnet and CBC.
