There's still some uncertainty about Jacob Trouba's wonky ankle.

The Jets defenceman said Tuesday afternoon he's good to go for Game 1 of Winnipeg's first-round playoff series with the Minnesota Wild on Wednesday night.

But Trouba also indicated the injury, which sidelined him for 20 games this season, might force him to play through some discomfort.

"It’s expected. I’ve talked to other people who have had similar injuries before. I know what to expect and you just have to roll with the up and downs, I guess," Trouba said following practice.
