Jets news:

Winnipeg Free Press:  Jets begin hectic 16-day stretch tonight against sizzling-hot Penguins.  (Paywall).  Mike writes about the upcoming schedule for Winnipeg.  The good news is there are plenty of home games in that stretch and when you consider how well they have played at Bell MTS Place perhaps that can offset the hectic stretch.
