Hurricanes at Jets: Open Game Thread

Carolina Hurricanes (9-17-4) at Winnipeg Jets (12-11-4)

Friday, Dec 9, 2011, 8:30 PM EST | MTS Centre | Winnipeg, MB

BREAKING: Jeff Skinner will not play tonight. Reports are only via twitter and not from the team. Initially WInnipeg pregame radio said it was due to an unspecified UBI, (which could be anything from a bruised shoulder to a concussion). Later John Forslund tweeted it was the "flu". Patrick Williams, a writer for NHL.com, who spoke to Skinner after a lengthy and tiring practice said saw no signs that he was ill or injured. We'll see what else we hear on the pregame show.
