Jets Nation Podcast – “Load Management”
Photo credit: NHL.com
The Winnipeg Jets have played fairly well over their last few games but haven’t always gotten the goaltending, calls from the refs, and the results they desired. Canada won gold at the World Juniors on the back of a heroic effort from injured captain Barrett Hayton. The guys look at the pro’s and con’s of playing through injuries and “load management”. They also look at the return of Niku to the lineup.
