Jets news:
Winnipeg Free Press: Jets, Leafs both eager to right recent stumbles in tonight’s game. Winnipeg is coming off a well fought loss whereas Toronto was decimated by Dallas. Both teams are desperate for a win which should translate into a very good hockey game tonight.
Winnipeg Sun: Jets still 10 points out of playoffs. With the three point format of the NHL making up ground, especially when it is a tall high to climb, is not an easy task. It is why people point to teams not in a playoff position by November 1st and show how unlikely it is to get back above the line.
Toronto Sun: Jets catching Leafs at a bad time. Always better to face a team coming off a 7-1 win instead of the alternative. Should make for a surly bunch.
Winnipeg Sun: Jetting down south for a good cause. Nice ingenuity and in support of charity.
