Winnipeg Jets Morning Papers

Note: The Jets made some news on Friday when the team announced in the morning that they had signed NHL veteran Sam Gagner to a one-year deal.

Note II: We have only one more week before the return of the Illegal Curve Hockey Show from summer hiatus. But we’ve still got some fresh content coming your way from my chat with Morgan Barron.

Winnipeg Sun: Jets land Gagner on minimum-salary deal. While some may be concerned this will kill opportunity for young players it could simply just mean more competition which isn’t a bad thing provided everyone gets a fair shot.

Jets official website: Jets prospect Zhilkin launches mental health awareness program. Mitchell caught up with the Jets prospect who began this initiative.

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.
