The Athletic Winnipeg:  Jets fan survey, part 2: Just how bright is this team’s future? (Paywall). Murat asked and you answered. This is part deux of his survey which covers plenty of ground.

The Hockey News: How Sam Gagner reached 1000 names. My smartass response is that he played 999 games prior to game 1000 but Jacob spends time looking at how the veteran forward has become just the 375th player in NHL history to achieve that mark.

TSN: Oilers’ Draisaitl unlikely to play vs. Jets, but could return soon. Half of the amazing duo for Edmonton out of the lineup but they still pummelled Seattle last night without him so they remain formidable .
