Afternoon links:

Day 11:  Coach Maurice audio | Player audio | Lines from practice | 27 players left at camp | 16 players re-assigned

NHL.com:  Jets’ success depends on progress of young players.  If you look at the players left there are some spots open to these young guns.

NHL.com:  Goaltending, youth movement among Jets’ X-factors.   I missed this article from Patrick as well as the one above.  Both good reads from him.

Jets news:

Winnipeg Free Press:  Jets set? Far from it.  (Paywall).  I suspect after today we will be a lot closer to the Jets team you can expect to see in the regular season.  Tim gives you an overview of camp hopefuls.

Winnipeg Sun:  Jets smoked by Wild.  A case of men vs. boys.  Hopefully the Jets fans who made the trip south also caught the Vikings game earlier in the day.

Tap & Jets fans at XCel

MyToba:  Jets youngsters bombed by Wild vets.  While fans aren’t happy with the result they can probably rest easy knowing that the team will be fielding a more veteran lineup for their remaining pre-season games.

Minneapolis Star Tribune:  Wild throttles Jets 8-1 at Xcel in preseason action.  Ouch.  Jets referenced as a JV team by the Wild beat writer.

Pioneer Press:  Wild rout Jets 8-1 in exhibition laugher.  Not much Minnesota nice in that beat down.
