The Winnipeg Jets take on the Toronto Maple Leafs from Scotiabank Arena on Wednesday night.
The Winnipeg Jets conclude their three-game road trip with a stop in Toronto for the first test of an extended home-and-home with the Maple Leafs on Wednesday.
Set to do battle from Scotiabank Arena at 6:00 PM central, the Jets and Leafs will then renew acquaintances on Saturday evening in Winnipeg, in a game that closes out the Jets' unofficial first half and sends the team into its league-mandated bye week.
Once again, Winnipeg will square off with a depleted lineup, as it will be missing both Mark Scheifele and Gabe Vilardi. For Scheifele, it will be his fifth-straight game missed, while Vilardi will be out of action for his second-straight contest.
Laurent Brossoit will get the call in net for Winnipeg, as the team will likely turn back to Connor Hellebuyck on Saturday at home.
