Winnipeg Jets Morning Papers

Note:  Day 3 of Winnipeg Jets training camp gets underway today at 9 am for Group 1 and at 12 pm for Group 2.

Jets news:

Winnipeg Sun:  Ken’s Notebook. Includes: 1) Roslovic ready for new challenge. 2) Morrow eyes opportunity. 3) Vets looks to strike balance for pre-season action.

Winnipeg Sun:  Dano drops weight as Jets winger is in better shape as he reaches career crossroads. As Eminem once said “You only get one shot” and this may be the best real chance for Dano.

Winnipeg Free Press:  Opportunity knocks for defencemen.  (Paywall).  Gonna be some room on the rink for a young guy to step up in the absence.  

Winnipeg Free Press: Veteran Perreault tasked with showing youngsters the ropes. (Paywall).  Have no fear Matty Perreault is here.   At least that is what his bench boss is saying.

Winnipeg Free Press: Reactions mixed, but fans snap up new Jets jerseys. (Paywall).  The reaction on our instagram and the new IC Poll (which you can vote on here ——>) seems to skew negative.  We did see a few folks wearing them yesterday at IcePlex.  Will be different to see them worn in a game.
