WINNIPEG – The Winnipeg Jets hope to close out their three-game homestand today against the Utah Mammoth (TSN3, 680 CJOB/Power 97). The Mammoth come into Winnipeg sitting atop the Central Division having won six in a row and are two points up on the Jets.
The Winnipeg Jets (5-2) and their No. 3 scoring defense (averaging 2.29 goals against per game) host the Calgary Flames (1-6-1) on Friday at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN+. The Flames score 1.50 goals per game, which ranks 32nd in league play. Winnipeg lost 3-0 at home in its last game on Oct. 23 against the Seattle Kraken.
