The Athletic Winnipeg: Mailbag. (Paywall). Murat is taking questions from Jets fans so if you’ve got something that has you curious feel free (provided you’re a subscriber) to ask him a question.

The Athletic: NHL offseason priorities: What to expect from all 31 teams. (Paywall). It is almost like folks in the NHL think people in Winnipeg forgot the Teemu Selanne for Chad Kilger, Oleg Tverdovsky and a 3rd rounder trade. Most haven’t. So the idea of trading Laine (something most aren’t advocating for anyway) for pieces aka magic beans isn’t likely very palatable.

Moose audio:

Illegal Curve: Interview with head coach Pascal Vincent. Moose bench boss Pascal Vincent joined us on The Illegal Curve Hockey Show to discuss what he and the Manitoba Moose are up to during the off-season, player development over the summer break and looked ahead to the upcoming AHL season. The coach also discussed his time within the NHL Bubble with the Winnipeg Jets, as well as players including JC Lipon and Kristian Vesalainen.

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.
