Winnipeg Jets Papers

Jets news: Winnipeg Free Press: Ladd likes possibilities on offence with two large additions. Clearly the captain knows this move alone will not win the Stanley Cup, or even guarantee a playoff position. However, it does improve the team and that is the type of progression he would want to see from a team building a contender. Winnipeg Free Press: Perfect fit for Finn. He might be the oldest player on the team but his skills are just what the doctor ordered for this young team. Winnipeg Free Press: Jets turn focus to filling vacant roster positions. While fans are elated that the Jets made an unexpected move in signing Jokinen, the reality is the team needs to secure their top RFA as well as figuring out who will be backing up Ondrej Pavelec this season. Winnipeg Sun: Jets pick Trouba sticking with original plan. Sounds like there are a lot of different stories going around the web but this perhaps should put the rumours to rest.

When you have the owner of the team heading to your farm to make a pitch, you know that they want your services, pretty, pretty, pretty badly. Minneapolis Star Tribune: Wild ups the ante. While Minnesota hasn't got the 'bold moves' resume, perhaps it is time for them to show their loyal fans that they are prepared to be a big player.
