The Winnipeg Jets are attempting to halt a nine-game losing streak as they wrap up their road trip against the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday. Head coach Scott Arniel reshuffled his forward lines during Monday's practice at Bell Centre, reuniting Mark Scheifele, Kyle Connor, and Gabe Vilardi in an effort to spark an offense that has dropped four consecutive games by a combined 23-7 score.
