Winnipeg Free Press: Winnipeg Jets looking to move away from the past and form new identity. It isn’t so much about forgetting the past (they are after all named the Jets), nor is it about ignoring the interim (as the Moose) but about combining these two era’s and forging ahead with a new identity.

Winnipeg Sun: Jets’ Thorburn pulled over, wished good luck. At least he wasn’t speeding and given a pass.

While there are 1000’s of other accomplishments (arts and science) that our city has to be proud of, the role this hockey team has being an ambassador of name recognition shouldn’t be understated.
Winnipeg Free Press: Police beefing up downtown security. They city of Winnipeg should plan to have a heavy police presence for all 41 Jets home games.
