Line Combinations: Jets at Ducks

The 23-9-1 Winnipeg Jets will take on the 11-14-4 Anaheim Ducks from the Honda Center on Wednesday night.

Serving as the second stop of a California back-to-back, the Jets will look to pick up their second win in as many nights in the State, following a come-from-behind victory over the San Jose Sharks on Tuesday.

A win would mark the team's sixth in its last eight games and third-straight.

Winnipeg is currently in the midst of three-straight games against clubs within the league's bottom-six (Montreal, San Jose, Anaheim).

Nikolaj Ehlers has worked his way back from an injury and has been activated off the team's injured reserve. He will draw back into the lineup for the first time in 10 games on Wednesday.

It is expected that goaltender Eric Comrie will get the start on Wednesday, as Connor Hellebuyck suited up in the first half of the back-to-back.

A possible substitution on defence could see itself happen for Winnipeg, as Ville Heinola, Logan Stanley, Haydn Fleury and Colin Miller have worked themselves into a bit of a rotation on the back-end.

Puck drop is set for 9:00 PM central on Wednesday, and the game can be viewed live on TSN.
