Jets news:
The Hockey News: One-on-one with Mark Scheifele (video). THN’s Ryan Kennedy caught up with the Jets budding star in the midst of the Colts’ playoff drive.
Winnipeg Sun: You be the boss. The Sun put the fans in the driver seat and asked them how they would move this team forward. Over 1700 participants later these are the results. Cannot say I’m overly surprised at the list the fans would like to jettison. Hopefully for Mark Scheifele, the poll was conducted before Sean Couturier went on a tear in Friday’s Flyers/Penguins game.

Globe and Mail: Canada defeats U.S. for women’s world hockey crown. Many were suggesting that the Canadian women were a step behind their U.S. counterparts, as they have not won gold since 2007 and had been smoked by this U.S. team 9-2 to open the tournament.
