No morning skate for Winnipeg with it being a matinee so stay tuned for the pre-game report to ensure you\u2019re up-to-date on the latest.

Might we next see him in antlers? Over in the OHL, Kevin He (2024 4th) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ICdave\/status\/2033018405855342789\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">scored an empty netter<\/a> which set a new career high for him in goals with 37.
