Note:  While the Jets might have the day off, join @icdave at the Grand Opening of Snap Fitness River Heights at 1580 Taylor Avenue from noon to five.

Jets news:

Winnipeg Free Press:  Jets in tough spot after loss.  And now we wait.  Jets won’t be playing again unti next Wednesday.  It will be interesting to see where the playoff “line” is at that point.

Winnipeg Sun:   Snapshots.  Another road trip to forget.  Bad pass lead to penalty.  Offensive zone penalties kill Jets.  Wheeler using his wheels.  Making a game of it.  Kane a thinner Kessel.  Wheeler on a roll.  Clitsome gets first point for Jets.  Spelling Byfuglien puzzles teammates.  Should have started Mason?

Winnipeg Sun:  Torched in Calgary.  The one advantage to the migration of Manitobans in the 90’s is the Jets 2.0 will have many fans when visiting the teams out West.  Unfortunately that quasi home ice advantage doesn’t give coach Noel what he really could use in his favour, last change.

Winnipeg Sun:  In playoff dogfight.  Not one team seems to have risen to the top to seize the opportunity.

Calgary Herald:  Manitoba expats beam with pride.  One regret of playing in the Southeast again next season, is the fact that the Jets won’t be playing former rivalry teams like Calgary and Edmonton very often.  Former Manitobans made the atmosphere spectacular both in Calgary and Vancouver.

Calgary Herald:  Flames coach knows Jets captain only too well.  Sutter knows Ladd from their time together early on in the Jets captain’s career.

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.
