Note: The Habs are one win away from the Stanley Cup Final after last night’s win over Vegas in game five. Current Jets centre Nate Thompson, who previously played for Montreal, will be on Habs Tonight for a chat at 9 PM CT. You can watch it here.

Jets news:

DailyFaceOff: Seravalli’s Trade Targets: 20 names in play in the ‘Summer of Jack’. Frank’s first offering for his new venture looks at names in play this summer and coming in at number 20 on his list is talented but unused Jets defenceman Sami Niku.

The Athletic Winnipeg: Logan Stanley’s ceiling? Blake Wheeler’s decline? Sami Niku’s stagnation? Jets mailbag, part 2. (Paywall). Folks had a lot of questions for Murat. So much so that it spilled into a second mailbag.

Canadian Beer News: Wild Rose Brewery and Josh Morrissey releasing Sunday Fuzz for Mental Health Awareness. Sounds like a tasty collaboration which will help raise funds for the initiative the Jets defenceman began to help with “raising awareness and promoting positivity around mental health”. Here is the link to his foundation (Glass Half Full Foundation).

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.
