Note: Expect the new Jets Heritage Classic jersey reveal on September 13th.

Note II: The Jets announced their roster and game dates/times for the Rookie Showcase tournament which this year will take place in Belleville, Ontario as they do battle against the Habs and Sens young guns.

Jets news:

The Athletic Winnipeg: Winnipeg isn’t exactly rebuilding but growing pains are on the way. (Paywall). Not exactly a confidence inducing headline as Murat delivers his state of the franchise article.

Winnipeg Sun: Why trading Nikolaj Ehlers would be a regrettable move. To me it simply doesn’t make a lot of sense to trade Nik Ehlers. When you have a player who can do what Ehlers can do, you just don’t deal that away. His cap hit is also very reasonable. Scott has more on the topic.

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.
