Note: The Jets took Wednesday off following their 4-0 win over the Canucks on Tuesday night.  Today they are scheduled to practice at Bell MTS Place where we will learn the status of Carl Dahlstrom who is expected to miss some time after he sustained an injury against Vancouver (Update: He’s out six weeks).  Be sure to check back for the Practice Report for all the latest news and audio.

Note II:  The Moose picked up an important victory last night thanks to some stellar goaltending by Eric Comrie and Michael Spacek depositing the winner in OT to deliver a 3-2 win over the Senators.  Today they will head to Siloam Mission for some charity work.  They’ll be back on the ice on Friday to prepare for a pair of games against Laval.

Jets news:

Winnipeg Sun:  Perreault spitting mad over lack of action on Virtanen elbowHard to blame him for his anger which is still smoldering days later.  He certainly didn’t hold back.  

The Athletic Winnipeg:  No gold medal, but David Gustafsson proud of bronze: Jets prospect came back to North America, the quickest path to his ultimate goal.  (Paywall).  Ken caught up with the Jets 2018 2nd rounder who joined the Moose here in Winnipeg this week.

Winnipeg Sun:  Another head-shaker from NHL player safetyPerreault is not an overly confrontational type so you knew when he was yelling at the Canucks bench that it was something serious.  Not a good look for NHL Player Safety to look the other way for that type of hit.

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.
