Note:  Tune into today’s action packed Illegal Curve Hockey Show on TSN 1290 Winnipeg today from 12 noon until 3 pm cst.  The guys will recap last night’s 2-1 win over the Bruins and look ahead to the Sunday evening contest against the Flyers as well as taking a look around the NHL.  Guests:  Frank Seravalli (Philly Daily News),  Mike Greenlay (Minnesota Wild colour analyst) and Brad Treliving (Calgary Flames GM).

Jets news:

Winnipeg Free Press:  Kane, Scheifele now finding twine.  The Jets desperately needed additional scoring from forwards not named Ladd, Little and Wheeler and they seem to have found it of late.

Winnipeg Free Press:  Backstopper bests the Bruins.  He really does enjoy playing against his former team as Michael Hutchinson, once again, has a fantastic performance against the club that let him go.

Winnipeg Free Press:  Harrison should fit in just fine.  Fans got an introduction to the newest member of the team with the opening goal of the game last night as he grabbed an assist on Kane’s goal.

Winnipeg Sun:  Jets hold on to ruin Bruins night.  Read Ken’s assessment of the game as the Jets pulled off a wild 2-1 win to the delight of the Jets fans rocking the MTS Centre last night.

Winnipeg Sun:  New Jet Harrison welcomes a change in scenery.  While the weather switch is not enviable it has to be nice to leave a team in the Eastern Conference basement to one that is in the thick of a playoff hunt.

Winnipeg Sun:  Jets assistant coach Charlie Huddy remains calm in face of adversity.  Will he be able to continue pulling a rabbit out of his hat?  Jets fans are sure hoping he continues to get as much as he can with the defensive core he has in place.

Boston Herald:  Sluggish start proves costly for Bruins.  Always find it interesting to read the Jets opposition newspapers for their assessment of the game.

Jets 2 Bruins 1:

Winnipeg Jets:  Michael Hutchinson, Evander Kane, Blake Wheeler and Jay Harrison.

Boston Bruins:  Coach Julien, Patrice Bergeron and Tuukka Rask.

Coach Maurice post-game presser: Coach Maurice met with the media following the game against Boston.

Jets on a Deadline:  Game recaps, post-game audio, video highlights and the NHL.com 3 Stars of the night.

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.
