Kyle Connor at Practice The 44-22-5 Winnipeg Jets are set to host the 42-23-4 Edmonton Oilers from Canada Life Centre on Tuesday evening. Returning home following a disappointing conclusion to the team's season-high, five-game road trip, the Jets will look to rebound with a victory after dropping three-straight games on the heels of a three-game winning streak. With a lack of consistency over the past month of hockey, Winnipeg is in need of a stretch of strong play to help shake its .500 record over the past 12 games. Entering the scene is Canadian rival, Edmonton, which just saw Zach Hyman hit 50 goals on the season in a 5-3 loss to Ottawa on Sunday. The Oilers have dropped two-straight and will also enter Tuesday's game hungry. Winnipeg is expected to go with a lineup similar to recent weeks, to which some post-deadline changes have found players in new spots within the forward groupings and defensive pairs. Connor Hellebuyck will look to rebound from some recent tough outings, to which he has lost two-straight with a save percentage in the low .800s. Winnipeg Jets expected line combinations for Tuesday, March 26 vs. Edmonton: Connor-Scheifele-Iafallo Ehlers-Monahan-Toffoli Niederreiter-Lowry-Appleton Barron-Namestnikov-Perfetti Morrissey-DeMelo Dillon-Pionk Stanley-Schmidt Hellebuyck Injured: Vilardi Healthy scratches: Kupari, Miller, Samberg, Gustafsson Tuesday's game can be viewed live on TSN at 7:00 PM central time.
