Road-heavy schedule just what Jets need

Winnipeg Jets winger Chris Thorburn works out Monday morning as the club prepped for its brief road trip to Texas for a game against the Dallas Stars Tuesday night.

The Winnipeg Jets are likely hoping the old formula of ‘practise makes perfect’ comes with a bit of wiggle room.

The Jets play 16 games over the next 28 days, including 10 on the road.

Head coach Paul Maurice said it’s not just the sheer number of games stacked up over the next four weeks that could prove daunting, but also the shortage of teaching time for a young club that really needs it.
