Jets news:

Sportsnet: After last-minute loss, Jets must re-evaluate how to earn every possible point.  No time like the present to get this figured out otherwise you are gonna be selling off assets as the deadline approaches. 

Winnipeg Sun: Solid third period not enough as Jets fall to Flames. The cliche is a 60 minute game not 59 minutes and 13 seconds as the goal against with 47 seconds just killed them and is especially bad given how crucial every single point is heading down the stretch.

Calgary Sun: Lindholm scores again, Flames win again on record-setting afternoon. Always good to gain insight from a writer that covers the Jets opponent.
