Jets news:
TSN: Maurice maintains belief in Jets’ core. Not a huge surprise that he didn’t say “I don’t and think everyone needs to be traded”. The coaching staff has a lot of work to do this summer.
Winnipeg Sun: Veteran Stastny has ‘nothing but good things’ to say about Jets, but in no rush to figure out next contract. In addition to writing about Stastny, Ted touched on Ehlers health, players saying goodbye to teammates who may not be back next season and Hellebucyk’s heavy workload.

Jets prospect news:
Winnipeg Sun: Jets prospect Perfetti relishes experience of playing in world championship, winning gold medal. In a year that was so unfortunate one of the positives will be the benefit Perfetti had going from the World Juniors to the AHL and ending it with the World Championship.
Sportsnet: Jets’ Perfetti emerges from whirlwind season more confident in his game. Given where his game went in the AHL playing against men from the start of the season to when he left for the World Championship it is easy to understand why he gained that confidence.
