Jets news:
Winnipeg Free Press: No points for pretty in NHL. As I’ve been saying all along they don’t care how you put the two points into the standings bank as long as you are putting the points on the board. Plenty to read in Gary’s article.
Winnipeg Free Press: Mix more potent with Perreault, Little flying. Perreault once again showed how important he can be to this roster as he added another three assists, none better than the pass over to Stempniak.
Winnipeg Free Press: Jets nip Canucks 5-4 in key pre-playoff game. In this season pretty much nothing makes sense in the NHL so in a game the Jets could have easily lost they picked up a clean two points. Tim also looks at what’s left, Enstrom’s injury, style points and big start.
