The Panthers scored twice in the shootout and take it 2-1 over the Jets. The home team did fight back to earn at least a point but they really cannot afford to be letting points slip away.

With a special teams win the Jets were able to get back on track defeating their Central Division rival Blues by a final score of 3-1. They improve to 4-2 in the second game of back-to-backs.

Lots of excitement in Manitoba for the Heritage Classic in October of 2026 when the Jets host the Canadiens. Before the game between Winnipeg and St. Louis at CLC we heard from Jets alumni captain Blake Wheeler and Habs alumni captain Mike Keane and learned who would be on the preliminary roster.

When the news stated to filter out about the Jets potentially being involved in next season’s Heritage Classic it immediately spawned the conversation about who would be participating in the alumni game. It wasn’t even confirmed until early December that they were in but that didn’t stop the speculation.

Worth noting that an alumni game wasn’t even mentioned as potentially part of the festivities.

This will be the third time Winnipeg has been involved and the second time they’ve hosted in Manitoba. Back in 2016 they played the Oilers with both an alumni game and a regular season contest. In 2019 when they took on the Flames in Regina it was just a regular season one.

Today, the team the preliminary Jets alumni roster.
