Jets' Laurent Brossoit: May not start after all
Rotowire
Brossoit -- who was originally reported to be starting -- stayed on the ice late Friday, Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press reports, indicating he won't be starting against the Sabres.

Still, the netminding split for the Jets' back-to-back should probably be considered unclear for the time being. Regardless, Brossoit will likely see action in one of Winnipeg's next two matches.
