Thomas' Three Storylines - SEA @ WPG

DEMELO IN
Dylan DeMelo returns to the Jets lineup tonight after missing the last three games with a lower body injury. DeMelo will start the night on the right side with Brendan Dillon after playing the majority of this season with Josh Morrissey, who will pair with Neal Pionk.
"He's (Morrissey) having a fantastic year. He's helped my game a lot. It's been an absolute treat to be along that ride with him," said DeMelo yesterday.
"If I'm back and we are reunited (at some point), great. If not, it'll be good to get back with the fellas."

DIFFERENT TERMS
This will be the third and final meeting between the Jets and Kraken this season. However, the first two meetings the Jets arrived in Seattle playing the second game in as many nights. Both times the Kraken were rested and waiting for Winnipeg and both games turned out to be 3-2 decisions, one in the Jets favour, the other in Seattle's. Tonight, the Jets are rested and ready to go for the Kraken who are playing the final game of their five game, nine-day road trip.
KRAKEN SPEED
Seattle comes into tonight's game three points out of first place in the Pacific Division and a legitimate threat in the Western Conference. Dave Hakstol's group have thrived because of the speed they have up and down the lineup and the Jets will need to be moving their feet early and often.
"They (the Kraken) skate very, very well. They've got four lines that can fly. So, they pressure you all over the ice and when they get the puck, they're very dangerous," said Rick Bowness this morning.
"They've got four guys coming up on the rush. But it's their speed game, the pace at which they play the game cause all four lines can skate."
