The Janesville Jets have finalized their 2009-10 schedule.

The NAHL announced the matchups for its 2009 Showcase Tournament, which will be held Sept. 16-19 at the Schwan Super Rink in Blaine, Minn.

All 19 NAHL teams will play four regular-season games in four days.

The Jets will play the Owatanna (Minn.) Express at 1:45 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 16. They will follow that up with games on successive days against the Topeka (Kan.) Roadrunners (7:15 p.m., Sept. 17), the Alexandria (Minn.) Blizzard (5 p.m., Sept. 18) and the Wichita Falls (Texas) Wildcats (3:30 p.m., Sept. 19).

Now in its seventh season, the NAHL Showcase Tournament has evolved into one of junior hockey's most prestigious and well-attended events. The four-day event is a can’t-miss for every NCAA program and NHL team as scouts get their first look at some of the best and brightest hockey talent North America has to offer.

The Schwan Super Rink is the largest ice arena of its kind in the world. The state-of-the-art facility, a $21 million project with more than 300,000 square feet, features eight sheets of ice under one roof.

Traditionally, the NAHL Showcase has attracted more than 5,000 people in overall attendance for the four-day event, including more than 200 college and professional scouts.
