Jets news:
Winnipeg Free Press: Coyotes Nation continues to embrace its connection to Jets. (Paywall). I think its great that fans in Arizona still feel connected. Once the Jets returned to Winnipeg the reasons for enmity towards the fans base (if those reasons were even justified in the first place) ceased.
TSN: Dreger Report – Scheifele a true student of the game. Looks like everyone has decided to pen something about the Jets top centre.
ESPN: Mark Scheifele’s scoring pace is no fluke. (Paywall). No question about it. I’m actually writing something for this afternoon that will speak further to this point.
Winnipeg Sun: Five keys to Jets vs. Avalanche. Ken’s set up article for tonight’s game includes: 1) You again. 2) Hutchinson’s return. 3) Trouba’s return? 4) What’s wrong Semyon? 5) Iginla’s slow start. And the extra bonus is Mark Scheifele vs. Nathan MacKinnon.
Winnipeg Sun: Road win sees Jets earn victory without their best. Poppy (no Remembrance Day pun intended) was a bit sloppy last night but leaving with two clean points is all that matters.
Winnipeg Sun: Centre taking advantage of top-six role with Jets. Amazing what happens when you play a talented offensive player on a line with similarly talented players. Petan is certainly taking advantage of his opportunity.
