Note:  The 2016 NHL Scouting Combine is underway at the First Niagara Center and HarborCenter in Buffalo.  It goes until Friday, June 4th.

Jets news:

Sportsnet:  30 Thoughts.  (8 & 9).  Ladd talk including whether he could return to Winnipeg.

Illegal Curve:  Grant Clitsome announces retirement.  After just seven NHL seasons he is forced into retirement due to the back injury he sustained a few seasons back.

Illegal Curve:  Five years ago (yesterday) the NHL was officially returned to Winnipeg.  Hard to believe that the time has flown by since May 2011.

Jets audio:

Winnipeg Free Press:  Where were you when the Winnipeg Jets announced their return?  (Paywall).  In this episode of the “White Noise,” Free Press sports editor Steve Lyons and columnist Paul Wiecek reflect on the five-year anniversary of the announcement of the Winnipeg Jets’ return.

TSN 1290 Winnipeg:  Hustler and Lawless.  The guys look back at the day five years ago that True North Sports & Entertainment announced the purchase of the Atlanta Thrashers, now the Winnipeg Jets, and the short-lived “Drive to 13,000.”

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.
