Dano to make his first home appearance with Jets tonight
The march to an out-of-the-playoffs finish resumes tonight for the Winnipeg Jets as they kick off a long run of home games.
The Jets meet the Florida Panthers tonight at the MTS Centre at 7 p.m.
The Panthers continue to lead the NHL's Atlantic Division with 78 points and have added forwards Teddy Purcell and Jiri Hudler and defenceman Jakub Kindl for their certain run to the playoffs.
The Jets will have forward Marko Dano in their lineup for the first time at home after last Thursday's trade that sent captain Andrew Ladd to Chicago. The Jets are also without defenceman Adam Pardy, who was claimed on waivers on Monday by the Edmonton Oilers.
