Note: This is day eight since the NHL and AHL hit the pause button on their respective 2019-20 seasons.

Jets news:

The Athletic Winnipeg:  With the NHL paused, what comes next for the Jets?  (Paywall).  Murat takes a look at what the pause in the NHL season means for the players, what it means for the schedule, how might the playoffs work, what happens to the 11 UFAs, the draft/draft lottery and finally a look at the salary cap.

Winnipeg Free Press:  Hellebuyck a force to be reckoned with in Winnipeg net.  (Paywall). Obviously we have a bit of a bias here in this market as we watch Hellebuyck more than other players who are vying for the Hart but I fail to see anyone else who has been more valuable to their team than the Jets netminder.

The Athletic Winnipeg:  Recovered from heart condition, Jets’ Mark Letestu not ready for retirement.  (Paywall).  Ken had a chance to catch up with the veteran forward from Elk Point, Alberta.

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.
