USA Today: Jets preview – Last in Central. It isn’t difficult to figure out where Kevin Allen is picking your Winnipeg Jets when you see that headline. Usual preview fare including additions, subtractions, goaltending, analysis, breakthrough candidate, youngster to watch, what the team really need, key question and forecast.

Illegal Curve: Jets re-assign seven players from training camp. Not much of a surprise as the Jets made some moves on Sunday.
