Note: The Jets were off on Thursday and are set to practice today in San Jose. Check out the Practice Report here.

Note II:  The Moose are also set to practice today in Toronto as they get ready for a pair of games this weekend against the Marlies. Today they announced their 2021-22 opening day roster which is chock-full of prospects. Check it out here.

Jets news:

Sportsnet: Jets’ Kyle Connor flies under the radar while putting up big numbers. If he is flying under your radar at this point in your career you really are not paying attention.

Winnipeg Free Press: Proud moment for Perfetti’s parents.  (Paywall). Pretty cool story on the journey the 2020 1st rounders parents took to be at his first NHL game with an assist from a parent of a Ducks player.

Winnipeg Sun: Jets’ game better than it has been, not as good as it needs to be. Definitely some things need to be cleaned up although the addition of number 55 should have a big impact.

Winnipeg Free Press: No need to hit panic button. (Paywall). Thankful for that headline or else folks may be hitting that button after game 1!

The Athletic Winnipeg: Hellebuyck, Jets’ new-look defence and 9.1 takeaways from the season-opening loss. Murat is in California and he offers up these thoughts from the first game of the season.

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.
