Jets news:

Winnipeg Free Press:  Maurice puts Jets through their paces ahead of game against Lightning.  Both coaches are looking for a response from their team so it should make for an interesting game tonight in Tampa.  Ondrej Pavelec will make his third straight start for the Jets.

Winnipeg Sun:  Jets look for response to coach’s message against Lightning.  Last year the critical win over Tampa in mid March seemed to spur the Jets push forward in their quest for the playoffs.  While it would be naive to think that one win will switch things around for Winnipeg another loss could have big implications as the February 29th trade deadline looms.
