Status report
Makar will be a game-time decision; he wore a regular jersey during the Avalanche morning skate after leaving one shift into the third period of a 6-3 win against the Seattle Kraken on Tuesday because of a lower-body injury. If Makar cannot play, Ludvig, a defenseman, likely would enter the lineup. ... Forwards Nichushkin and Drouin and Kahkonen, a goalie, did not travel with Colorado. ... The Jets will dress the same lineup they used in a 3-0 win against the Utah Hockey Club on Tuesday.
