    The Winnipeg Jets face off against the Vegas Golden Knights in Nevada on Thursday.

    On Thursday night, the Winnipeg Jets will take to the ice at T-Mobile Arena for a 9:00 PM central time showdown with the Vegas Golden Knights.

    The road game marks the first of the three-straight for Winnipeg (4-3-2), which is riding a five-game point streak. It will also be the Jets' fifth road contest of the season, to which Winnipeg is 2-1-1 away from home this year. 

    Things will remain relatively similar for the Jets, who will once again be without head coach Rick Bowness, who remains away from the team to be with his wife Judy following her medical emergency on October 22. 

    The lines will be unchanged from the past two weeks, as the trio of Mark Scheifele, Kyle Connor and Alex Iafallo remain Winnipeg's top unit. 

    Although the Knights are goaltender Laurent Brossoit's former team, he did fare poorly against them the first time suiting up against Vegas this season, so Connor Hellebuyck will take to the net at T-Mobile Arena on Thursday. 

    Next up, Winnipeg hits Arizona for a Saturday afternoon affair, before travelling to St. Louis on Tuesday. All three games can be viewed live on TSN.
