The Winnipeg Jets will face the San Jose Sharks in their final home game of the 2022-23 season on Monday from Canada Life Centre. Although two regulars sat out the morning skate, they are both expected to play when the Jets look to avoid a season sweep at the hands of the league's 29th-ranked club.
Connor Hellebuyck will get his league-leading 63rd start of the season, as Winnipeg looks to avoid a season sweep at the hands of the league's 29th-ranked team.
Both Nikolaj Ehlers and Kyle Connor skipped the team's 9:30 AM skate as they opted for additional rest/recovery in advance of yet another critical showdown.
Head coach Rick Bowness indicated that one of the two players may be a game-time decision on Monday, but did express his hope that they would both be available.
Should Ehlers and Connor be in the lineup, everything would remain the way it was from Saturday's 2-0 shutout win over the Nashville Predators. If not, one of Axel Jonsson-Fjallby or Karson Kuhlman would slot in.
The 6:00 PM game can be viewed live on Sportsnet.

Connor - Dubois - Scheifele
Ehlers - Namestnikov - Wheeler
Niederreiter - Lowry - Appleton
Barron - Stenlund - Maenalanen

Dillon - Pionk
