Jets shake up lines ahead of must-win Game 5

Winnipeg Jets coach Paul Maurice has opted to shake up his lineup ahead of a do-or-die Game 5 against the Vegas Golden Knights.

In Sunday's game, the Jets will dress defensemen Dmitry Kulikov and Joe Morrow, who are replacing regular blue-liners Toby Enstrom and Ben Chiarot. Up front, Joel Armia will play in place of winger Andrew Copp, per Brian Munz of TSN 1290.

In the pregame line rushes, Kulikov was paired alongside Tyler Myers, while Morrow skated with fellow defender Dustin Byfuglien.

This will mark Kulikov's first appearance since March 8, as he missed the final 15 regular-season contests and every playoff game to date while recovering from a back injury.

The Jets trail the Golden Knights 3-1 in the Western Conference Final.
