Winnipeg Jets Morning Papers: Today’s Hockey Headlines | Apr 30, 2026

A daily roundup of Jets, Moose coverage — all the pro hockey news that matters in Manitoba and beyond.

Note: After taking Wednesday off the Moose will return to the ice today out at hfac as they continue to prepare for their second round series with the Griffins which gets underway on Saturday here in Winnipeg. All eyes will remain on practice as we wait to see if Elias Salomonsson or Kale Clague (who both missed skate on Tuesday) or Walker Duehr (skated on his own) are ready to join main skate which gets underway at 10:30 AM CT. Stay tuned for the Practice Report.

Jets news:

Global News: No response from Winnipeg Jets — yet — to Hellebuyck post-season ‘autopsy’. The sense I got after the media availability with GM Kevin Cheveldayoff was this was going to be a comprehensive process looking at things organizationally from top to bottom. So I’d imagine they won’t make any decisions until after the Moose playoffs conclude. But the bottom line is the status quo will not be sufficient.
