Winnipeg Jets Morning Papers

Note: With the World Championships ramping up for playoffs today no Jets news out of Finland. Closer to home we did learn on Thursday that the team sent season ticket holders an email seeking 12 season tickets holders to be part of the ‘Jets Season Ticket Member Advisory Council’. More about that here.

Note II: Next Tuesday, May 31st at 3 PM we will be hosting a Moose end of season roundtable as I will be joined by Manitoba play-by-play voice Daniel Fink as well as Austin Siragussa of MooseTV to discuss the 2021-22 season for the AHL club of Winnipeg. We have our first two guests booked as we will be joined by Moose GM (Jets AGM) Craig Heisinger as well as Moose head coach Mark Morrison. Still some players to be announced. Be sure to subscribe and set a reminder for this show on our YouTube channel.

Note III: The Ice and Oil Kings played game 4 in Edmonton last night with the home team coming out on top by a final score of 4-2 to take a commanding 3-1 lead in their seven game series. They have a practice scheduled for today as they look to try and force a return to Winnipeg if they can get back into this series with a game 5 win. That takes place tomorrow night in Edmonton.
