Jets taking precautions to not trigger the Avalanche

Paul Maurice won't mess with success tonight as he utilizes the same Winnipeg Jets lineup that has produced two consecutive NHL victories.

The Jets head coach has pencilled in goalie Connor Hellebuyck to start against the floundering Colorado Avalanche at Bell MTS Place. Game time is 7 p.m.

Defenceman Dmitry Kulikov (upper body) and forward Nic Petan will be spectators.

The Jets are coming off victories over the Buffalo Sabres and New York Rangers. Winnipeg (36-18-3) leads the Central Division — four points ahead of the Nashville Predators with a game in hand — and is tied with the San Jose Sharks atop the Western Conference
