Jets news:
Winnipeg Free Press: Armia proving himself with strong short-handed play. (Paywall). The puck really does seem to stick to his blade when he has it.
Winnipeg Sun: Five keys for Jets to beat Ducks. Ken’s list includes: 1) Ehlers erupts. 2) Scheifele cashes in. 3) Hutchinson delivers. 4) Discipline continues. 5) Contain the captain. And the big match-up is Mark Scheifele vs Ryan Kesler.
Winnipeg Sun: Laine not focused on Calder. The Jets rookie hasn’t changed his position and what he says about the Calder race since the beginning of the season so it isn’t that surprising that he hasn’t switched his tone.
Winnipeg Sun: Armia embraces new role. Ken writes about the role he has embraced.
The Hockey News: Missing the post-season (again) hurts, but Jets’ future is in good hands. Jared takes a glass half full approach to the previous season.
