Valeri Nichushkin got the hat trick on Sunday but Cale Makar was the difference for the Colorado Avalanche.
A few months ago, I wrote a strongly worded piece for an old outlet I wrote for analyzing some of the main reasons that the Winnipeg Jets should consider trading Nate Schmidt.
The Winnipeg Jets have been without forward Gabriel Vilardi for two games now and are set to miss a third game without their first-line right winger. He was previously sent back to Winnipeg for evaluation, it was revealed on Tuesday morning (March 5) that he’s dealing with a minor injury that has flared up over a couple of days.
The Winnipeg Jets have been consistent playoff contenders bolstered by a talented roster in recent years. Nevertheless, every successful team must make tough decisions to ensure long-term success.
The Winnipeg Jets are expected to healthy scratch defenseman Nate Schmidt in their Thursday game against the Vegas Golden Knights. This will be only the second time that Winnipeg has scratched Schmidt, with his last scratching coming on March 4th of last season.
The Jets have 10 defensemen under legitimate consideration for NHL jobs in the fall but are likely to only be able to keep seven or eight on their 23-man active roster.
The Winnipeg Jets had an exceedingly up-and-down 2022-23 season. They had a strong first half, suffered a prolonged slide in the second half, recovered from it just in time to squeak into the playoffs, then were quickly dispatched in the first round by the Vegas Golden Knights.
The Winnipeg Jets, who worked a split of their first two games with the top-seeded Vegas Golden Knights, now return to Canada for the next two games of their Western Conference first-round series having stolen home-ice advantage.
The Winnipeg Jets are falling fast. They have lost eight of their last 10 contests, including most recently, a 3-2 overtime loss on home ice to the 19-33-12 San Jose Sharks.
The Jets are off to a strong start to their season, entering tonight’s game in Vancouver with a 19-9-1 record despite missing several regulars due to injuries.

Without any playoff hockey to watch, Winnipeg Jets fans were treated to plenty of action during the opening day of the 2022 IIHF World Championship, which is being held in Finland.

The Winnipeg Jets handed other clubs a reminder that COVID-19 remains a concern as the postseason approaches.
The COVID-19 shortened 2020-21 NHL season was not kind to defenceman Nate Schmidt. Just one year into a massive $35.7 million contract signed with the high-flying Vegas Golden Knights, the energetic blueliner was heartbroken to hear of a trade to the Vancouver Canucks in time for the start of the season.
Over the past few months, there have been some rumblings that the Vancouver Canucks may be looking to move defenceman Nate Schmidt, whom they acquired from the Vegas Knights less than a year ago.
Prior to the 2020-21 season, Nate Schmidt was sent to the Vancouver Canucks by the Vegas Golden Knights for a third-round pick in the 2022 NHL Draft. His first season in British Columbia was disappointing, as he was expected to fill a hole left by the departure of longtime fan favourite Chris Tanev.
As three major offseason dates approach on the calendar, you can expect several NHL Rumors post per day. The Expansion Draft is July 21st, Entry Draft is the 23rd, and Free Agent Frenzy starts on the 28th.
