Winnipeg Jets Morning Papers

Note:  The Jets are back in action after their day off in Vegas.  Well, we presume they will be back in action for practice today as, if the movie the Hangover has taught us anything, what happens in Vegas…won’t be posted in the Winnipeg Jets Practice Report.  However we will still have one up with all the latest news from skate around 1 pm CST.  The team will have a few days of practice in sunny Nevada as they get ready for their first ever contest against the Golden Knights.

Note II:  The Moose are back in action tonight as they finally play against the Heat over in Stockton for game four of this six game California road trip.  “Morning skate” is at 1:15 CST with puck drop at 9 pm.

Jets news:

Winnipeg Sun:  Slowly, but surely Jets issues are getting cleaned up.  Still some areas that could use improvement (cough PK cough).  Ken takes a look at how these Jets have turned things around.

Winnipeg Free Press:  Jets taking in sights in Sin City before date with Golden Knights.  (Paywall).  One of my favourite places to visit and from the number of Jets players who say they haven’t been there before it should prove to be a good place to have some time to prepare for their next game.

TheScore:  3 reasons why the Jets are one of the NHL’s hottest clubs.  As you’d expect the focus is on: 1) Wheeler & Scheifele. 2) Hellebuyck. 3) Healthy D core.

Jets audio:

TSN 1290 Winnipeg:  Jets moving on up.  TSN’s’ Craig Button joined the Afternoon Ride and discusses the Winnipeg Jets start to the season and other NHL topics.

Moose news:

Global News:  Moose send Jan Kostalek to ECHL.  Looks like the defenceman is finally healthy enough to get back into some action and will get a chance to play some minutes with the Icemen.
