Note: The Jets season is now over. We wait to see if the team is planning some sort of end of season media availability with the players, coach Maurice and GM Kevin Cheveldayoff. Once we know the details we will bring those to you.
Note II: While normally it would be a long time (aside from end of season housekeeping) for more news the Jets silver lining could come on Monday when they will be one of eight teams who have a chance to win the first overall pick at the 2020 draft and we know that at worst they will end up with a top 10 selection.
Note III: We are certainly not going to lack for conversation on today’s Illegal Curve Hockey Show on TSN 1290 Winnipeg which gets underway at 9 AM and runs for three hours. Plenty of Winnipeg Jets and NHL talk so we hope you’ll join us for that here.

Winnipeg Sun: Fate, talent shortage, pandemic make it hard to put bow on Jets’ season. While it won’t mean a thing to the players I suspect a 1st overall pick would be a bow that fans would love to tie up 2019-20 with.
Winnipeg Free Press: No trouble in the bubble. (Paywall). Mike recaps his bubble experience.
Winnipeg Free Press: A few bright spots amid gloom after Jets’ quick exit. (Paywall). Some interesting factoids on Jets players who had a positive impact despite the series loss.
NHL.com: Jets have reasons to be optimistic despite losing in Cup Qualifiers. Time to look for the silver lining and for the Jets that reality is you have a much easier summer than you did last summer.
The Hockey News: The Jets are tough to evaluate after a cursed season. It may be tough to evaluate but folks around these parts are going to have quite a bit of time for introspection and reflection about the 2019-20 season.
