When the Winnipeg Jets (1-1-0) take to the ice tonight against the Colorado Avalanche, the line-up will have a few adjustments from the one that opened the current three-game road trip on the losing side in Dallas.
Dylan Samberg will see his first action of the regular season tonight, paired with Dylan DeMelo on the Jets blue line.
Axel Jonsson-Fjallby will see his first action in Jets colours as well, skating on a line with Saku Maenalanen and David Gustafsson.
On top of all this, Nikolaj Ehlers is a gametime decision after leaving this morning's pregame skate at Ball Arena early. His ailment isn't related to the shot he blocked off his hand in Dallas, but dates back to the lingering lower-body issue that kept him from participating in a practice last week.
"(Head Athletic Therapist, Rob Milette) will work on him here and we'll see," said associate coach Scott Arniel. "He's just had some things that have been bothering him for a bit, nagging."
