They'll be happy to see their former captain.
Until game time, that is.
That was the predominant message from the Winnipeg Jets this morning, preparing to face Andrew Ladd and the Chicago Blackhawks at the MTS Centre at 7 p.m.
Ladd, the Jets captain since the 2011 relocation until his trade on Feb. 25, will be playing his ninth game tonight since the deal.
"It's different," said Jets winger Blake Wheeler, Ladd's former linemate here.
