Jets news:

Winnipeg Free Press: Wild next up in Jets’ quest for Central Division sweep week. (Paywall).  Always a good thing when you can add wins against division rivals to the standings bank.  Mike sets up the action.

Winnipeg Sun: Jets look for first win vs Wild, expect a change of pace after high-scoring gamesKen previews the game from his observations in St. Paul including a video chat with TSN analyst Kevin Sawyer.  

NBC Sports: Jets not worrying about Patrik Laine’s goal slumpHockey will be fun soon enough for the sniper once a few pucks hit the back of the net.

Illegal Curve: Jets vs. Wild pre-game report. The Jets were back on the ice today in St. Paul as they got ready to face the Wild at Xcel Energy Center tonight at 7:00 pm CT. Includes projected lines, D pairs and starting goalie as well as audio from Blake Wheeler and Adam Lowry.

Illegal Curve: Morning Papers.  If you missed any of the news from earlier today we have you covered.

Jets video:

Paul Allen has a show on KFAN in Minnesota and during select game days #VoxInTheBox broadcasts from the timekeepers booth. He posts a $100 bill on the glass and if a player gets it through the hole they get the money. Mason Appleton became the third ever player (in nine years) to do it. He joins teammate Ben Chiarot and Anze Kopitar in achieving the feat. Maybe he should have been involved in the accuracy shooting at last week’s Skills Competition.

Jets audio:

Illegal Curve: Coach Maurice pre-game. Topics included –  What can he take from the two previous games into tonight’s game?  What has been the difference in the two games against Minnesota this season?  Goalie plan.  What are the benefits to be able to use Copp in such a versatile role?  On Copp contributing offence.  How much are Matt Hendricks fingerprints on this Jets team?  The right player at the right time for this group.
