Winnipeg Free Press:  Well done, WellwoodI like what Wellwood has brought to the table so far.  The much maligned forward has put forth an excellent effort almost every night and has 5 goals and 4 assists in 11 games.

Winnipeg Free Press:  Highlight reelUnlike the Jets 1.0, these Jets got the call in the 3rd period.  Many years of having calls go against the Jets 1.0 had me expecting the league to call off Evander Kane’s goal as a result of a high stick.

Winnipeg Free Press:  It’s buyer beware in Avery’s instanceWith the Stars on the hook for 50% of his salary and the Rangers paying 25%, any team who wants to take a chance on claiming him (Rangers put him on recall waivers) would only be out 25% of his 4 million dollar salaryDoesn’t sound like the Jets will be taking that chance however.

Winnipeg Sun:  Wellwood rises to occasionHe is a cerebral guy off the ice but is showing that he is an equally deep thinker on it as well.

Winnipeg Sun:  Jets snapshots – providing an exciting brandEverything from the Jets game last night, to coach Noel’s victory on his bday to the play of Jets goalie Pavelec and many more thoughts including use of Stapleton in shootout.

News1130:  Vancouver’s Kane plays big part in Jets victoryHe definitely played a major role in last night’s victory with his two goals.

IceCaps News:

The Telegram:  It’s been snow going for the IceCapsAh the joys of minor league hockey.  The peril of riding the bus in the sometimes unpredictable East coast fall weather was realized as the IceCaps made their way to Rhode Island.

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
