Winnipeg Jets Morning Papers

Note:  The prospects have completed all of their on and off ice drills as Jets Development Camp came to an end on Thursday.  Many will return back to their summer homes as they get back into training mode.  We won’t see them again until around September 10th when a number of player will prepare to head to Penticton BC for the YoungStars Classic.  Jets training camp will get underway about ten days later.

Note II:  As many heard yesterday the Jets signed Mathieu Perreault to a four year contract extension.  You can hear from Jets GM Kevin Cheveldayoff and Head coach Paul Maurice speaking about the extension.

Jets news:

Winnipeg Free Press:  Week at camp shows cupboards are stocked.  (Paywall).  Plenty of good pieces on the Jets chess board.

Winnipeg Free Press:  Jets extend Perreault for four years, $16.5M.  (Paywall).  The news was somewhat expected as there had been word for awhile that the Jets and Perreault were wanting to getting a deal done.

Winnipeg Sun:  Stanley struts his stuff.  He came in with some nerves but by the end of the week he was feeling a lot more comfortable.  Ken also covers Connor’s challenge, Rowe has special distinction and Around the Glass.

Winnipeg Sun:  Jets sign Perreault to new deal.  Ken offers up his thoughts on the extension of the versatile Perreault.

Sportsnet:  Jets’ window of opportunity opening sooner than later.  Plan the parade earlier than 2019 apparently.  Still many things need to go right but the boost of the second overall pick definitely accelerates the Jets plans.
