Note: The Jets to do list has narrowed to just two RFAs left being David Gustafsson and Mason Appleton, who has an arbitration hearing scheduled for August 11th. On Sunday CapFriendly reported that the team had come to terms with Leon Gawanke on a one-year deal which the Jets confirmed on Monday morning.

Note II: While the Illegal Curve Hockey Show is on hiatus we will still have some features for you on our YouTube channel throughout August. Today I’ll be chatting with Jeff Malott, who signed his second contract with the Jets, so be sure you’re subscribing to catch that chat.

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.
