Jets news:

Winnipeg Free Press:  Petan believes he’s capable of doing more.  (Paywall).  Personally I was of the opinion that Petan would have been far better served playing with the Moose this season gaining experience while playing big minutes in the AHL while he continues to develop.

Winnipeg Free Press: Better stop by the ATM on your way to the future, Mr. Chipman. (Paywall).  When you’re in the big leagues you have to pay a premium and with the amount of talent on this team plus the pieces they are going to need to add to get to the next level it is inevitably going to require some cash.

Ottawa Citizen:  Senators need to make changes that will result in some goals.  Gather some intel on the Jets opposition.
