Jets news:

TSN: Tim Stapleton inks deal with KHL team. He just tweeted that he is going to miss Winnipeg. Interesting to note he wrote “wanted to be back?”.
Winnipeg Free Press: Trouba’s a wee one in a family of big folks. A lot of hope rests on his young shoulders. Of course he should be quite the prize after he has the opportunity to mature his game in college.
Winnipeg Free Press: Spending time in Winnipeg fuels Gregoire’s passion to become a Jet. Playing for your re-born hometown team has to have special meaning for a player. That and the hefty raise you would receive playing in the NHL ($925,000.00 ) vs. AHL ($70,000.00).
Winnipeg Sun: Bigger is better, says Jets’ Bogosian. Now that he has had a year to get acclimatized to the city, it is time for him to show fans his true potential next season.
Winnipeg Sun: Prospect of playing for Jets thrills Gregoire. He is bigger and more polished than he was at this time last year and that can only be a good thing for the local kid.
Winnipeg Sun: Undrafted players hoping for shot with Jets. Everyone likes to cheer on the longshots, and there are a number of those at development camp right now.
NHL news:
TSN: Six NHL teams on Nash’s list; none are Canadian. Rick Nash says “I don’t think so Canada”.
Washington Post: Olie Kolzig sounds off about NHL labor situations. Good to hear Kolzig unafraid to speak his mind.
CBC: Former Habs GM Gauthier to work with Blackhawks. I wonder if speaking french is a requirement in Chicago?
The Province: Shane Doan holding out hope for Coyotes. Even at 35, and 36 in October, he could be a great piece of the puzzle for the Canucks. Some serious grit to that roster.
