Jets update: Winnipeg dropped only its fourth game of the season on Saturday, falling 4-1 to Nashville. That was the Jets’ first loss inside the Central Division after starting 6-0. This game will be their third on a six-game road trip, and Winnipeg is 8-3 as the visitor. G Connor Hellebuyck’s 14 victories lead the NHL. Linemates LW Kyle Connor and C Mark Scheifele have combined for 25 goals, almost a third of the Jets’ total offense.
Injuries: Wild LW Kirill Kaprizov (lower body) and C Marat Khusnutdinov (lower body) are day to day. RW Mats Zuccarello (lower body) is out. Jets D Dylan Samberg (broken foot) and D Logan Stanley (mid-body) are out.
The Wild have been the surprise of the league as their high-scoring winger makes a shambles of team scoring records.
