Note:  No rest for the weary as the Jets get back to game action tonight at Madison Square Garden as they go from Brooklyn to Midtown to take on the Rangers following yesterday’s 4-2 loss to the Islanders.  Be sure to keep it locked to illegalcurve.com and on social media including Twitter | Facebook | Instagram for all the pre and post game news.

Jets news:

Winnipeg Free Press:  Jets take it on the chin.  (Paywall).  The ice felt tilted towards Ondrej Pavelec during the 1st period and throughout much of the game.  The Jets just never really felt like they had the edge.

Winnipeg Sun:  Jets fall flat against Islanders.  Ken breaks down the game.

CBC:  Early penalty trouble sinks Jets against Islanders.  The word discipline was on everyone’s lips watching that first period.

Newsday:  Isles earn first win of season by beating Jets in Brooklyn.  Always interesting to read a recap from an opposition beat writer.

The Hockey Writers:  Q & A with Jacob Trouba.  The Jets young defenceman did this Q & A following the Winnipeg win in New Jersey.

Game 3 – Islanders 4 Jets 2:

Illegal Curve:  Coach Maurice post-game scrum.   How he saw the game.  Challenges that this Islanders team presented.  Penalties kill flow.  Any update on Byfuglien.  What is the key to rebounding from the loss?  Good to be able to get back on the ice tomorrow night?  What did he think of the Trouba/Byfuglien pairing?

Moose news:

Global News:  Jay Harrison leads by example.  He certainly provided some thoughtful responses during the interview.

Illegal Curve:  Coach McCambridge scrum.   Video of the Moose bench boss who spoke about the road trip in Toronto, having a veteran like Jay Harrison with the team and getting prepared for the home opener.

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.
