Note: The Jets made their big training camp cuts yesterday as they sent 15 players to the Moose (10 were re-assigned and 5 were assigned pending clearing waivers) which leaves Winnipeg with 27 players on their roster. The Jets are scheduled to skate today at the IcePlex at 10 am.

Note II: Plenty of Winnipeg Jets and NHL hockey talk on today’s Illegal Curve Hockey Show on TSN 1290 Winnipeg at 9 am. The final 90 minutes of the show is dedicated to getting you ready for the Fantasy Hockey season.

Winnipeg Free Press: Jets still have room to grow on offence. (Paywall). Considering what we saw from this team last season it would certainly be impressive if they improve on some of these figures.

Winnipeg Sun: Jets trim down roster. Ken offers his insights into the moves from yesterday.

ESPN: Jets Preview. Rankings, predictions, playoff chances and more.

ESPN: Inside Mark Scheifele’s quest to be the Tom Brady of the NHL. The Jets top centre has certainly set himself a high standard to follow and Jets fans will be the beneficiary if he hits his goals.

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.
