Day 6 of Winnipeg Jets training camp report

After a day off on Monday the Jets hit the ice at hockey for all centre as they prepare to face the Oilers tomorrow night.

First Cuts:

The younger group was scheduled to be on the ice first but they were reduced as Winnipeg made their first cuts of training camp reducing their roster by 12 players going from 53 to 41 (although one of those remaining is Ville Heinola who is out due to an infection in his ankle). Five prospects were returned to their junior clubs while seven guys will get set for Moose training camp which gets underway next week.

All eyes on Cole Perfetti:

The Jets first rounder from 2020 signed his new two-year contract with Winnipeg last night and Cole Perfetti was on the ice with his teammates this morning. We will be speaking with him after skate so stay tuned to hear from him.

Power Play:

Winger Nikolaj Ehlers was working on PP1 today as the team worked on special teams on this side of the rink during training camp. PP1: Scheifele, Connor, Vilardi, Morrissey and the aforementioned Ehlers.

Media:

To follow.

Up next:

Tomorrow the game group is scheduled to skate at 10 AM at hockey for all centre while the non-game group will skate at 12 noon. Puck drop between the Jets and Oilers is 7 PM.
