Note: The Jets are back for another day of practice today at 11 AM at Bell MTS Place as they continue to prepare a date with the Red Wings tomorrow night. While we didn’t get an update from coach Maurice as he didn’t speak following yesterday’s practice he will be speaking today so we may get a better idea of the health of some of the injured Jets. As always let the Jets Practice Report get you up to speed.

Note II: The Moose will also hit the ice for a practice today as they continue to prepare for a pair of games this weekend against the Iowa Wild to close out this eight-game home stand.

Jets news:

Winnipeg Free Press: Predators not a team Jets should be ‘scared of at all’. (Paywall). They are still the defending Western Conference champions and a heck of a hockey team. While I think the Jets can hold their own Nashville is one heck of a team.

CBC: For a Winnipeg Jets fan, there is no place for belief. Long read from a Winnipegger who refuses to believe…for now.

Sportsnet: 31 Thoughts. Just a couple of Jets related tid bits including 14 (Stastny) and 17 (Jets being in on Rick Nash).

Illegal Curve: Winnipeg Jets Practice Report. Includes some notes, lines/D pairs and audio from Josh Morrissey, Mathieu Perreault and Brandon Tanev.

Jets video:

Sportsnet: Are the Jets the most compelling Canadian NHL team? Tim Micallef and Donnovan Bennett debate which Canadian team is the most compelling at this point in the NHL season.

Sportsnet: Jets are Canada’s best team after Trade Deadline Day. Colby Armstrong ranks Canada’s best NHL teams and there’s really only three worth mentioning.

Jets audio:

TSN 1290 Winnipeg: Hellebuyck can put this loss in the rear view mirror. TSN Jets analyst Trevor Kidd joined host Kevin Olszewski to recap the Jets loss to the Nashville Predators on Tuesday night.

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.
