Jets news:

Winnipeg Sun:  Jets will dig deep into character before draft.  There will be a lot of tire kicking between now and the draft in Buffalo.  Of course either option will likely be lights out for Winnipeg.

Winnipeg Sun:  Presence of Jets players and prospects make world championships hot topic in Winnipeg.  With Jets fans not necessarily tuning into the Stanley Cup Playoffs they have another tournament with a bit more relevance to folks that follow the Winnipeg Jets.

Sportsnet:  Laine impossible to miss vs. Matthews in worlds exhibition.  I think many Jets fans are still in the “pinch me, am I dreaming phase” with the options that the team has with the move to second overall.

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.
