Jets news:

Winnipeg Sun: Lightning-quick start key for the Jets against Tampa Bay. Given their opponent is 15-1-1 in their last 17 games yeah that’s probably a good idea.

TSN: Jets not in on Shane Wright. Some folks out there suggesting Winnipeg was in on the 4th overall pick from 2022 but Dreger poured cold water over that rumour.

The Athletic: Ranking all 32 NHL teams’ home rinks, from Montreal to MSG and more. Canada Life Centre was ranked 13th last time they did this and it remains at 13th this time around.

TSN: Arniel, Jets prep for tough test against ‘second best team in the NHL’ in Lightning. The Jets make their way to Tampa Bay on Thursday to face off against a red-hot Lightning club that have won four of their last five games. Head coach Scott Arniel says he believes they’re the second best team in the league after Coloardo, and that his team can’t start the way they did against the Devils if they want to come out with a win.
