Winnipeg Sun:  Five keys to Jets vs Sharks.  Ken’s big matchup is Jets forwards vs Brent Burns and Erik Karlsson. His 5 keys to the game include: 1) Feeling hot, hot hot. 2) The masked men. 3) Morrissey rolling. 4) Kane still able. 5) No ordinary Joes.

Winnipeg Sun:  Cheveldayoff keeps eyes on road aheadKen sat down with the Jets GM to chat ahead of the roster freeze.

Winnipeg Sun:  Copp plays waiting game.  It would seem to make sense to give the forward as much time as is needed to get back to full health.
