Winnipeg Jets Morning Papers

Note: On Friday I reported that Jets 2018 2nd rounder David Gustafsson was dealing with a minor injury which held him out of the Tingsryd lineup on Wednesday and they held him out again last night.  In today’s piece we spoke about all things Sweden with the centre prospect.
