Note:  The Jets got off to a great start last night in Dallas but that is why you are obligated to play the full sixty minutes (or more) minutes. After the Mark Scheifele tally it was all relatively downhill from there and they dropped game 2 of the season by a final score of 4-1. The team are off today as they rest up for a tough back-to-back starting with the defending Stanley Cup Champs on Wednesday in Denver followed by a date against the Golden Knights on Thursday.

Note II: After a day off on Monday the Moose are scheduled to be back in action this morning for a practice at Canada Life Centre.

Note III: The Ice return to action this evening in Victoria as they take on the Royals looking to build on their 7-1-0 record. Puck drop is at 9 PM CDT.

Note IV: We gave away our first authentic Heritage Classic Jets jersey last night during the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show. But with eight more games in October, you’ve got eight more chances to win Jets jerseys, hats and shirts. You can enter here.

Winnipeg Free Press: Jets peak early in 4-1 loss to Dallas. (Paywall). They came out flying and after the Scheifele ripper appeared poised to not take their foot off the gas but that isn’t what happened and instead they found themselves down and eventually out.

TSN: Should Jets be concerned with number of shots againstConnor Hellebuyck stopped 40 shots in Winnipeg’s season opener. The Jets’ goalie has a .948 save percentage when he faces 40 or more, but is allowing that many chances playing with fire? The TH panel shares their thoughts.

Sportsnet: Why Sam Gagner is an underrated signing and really nice fit for JetsJets writer Ken Wiebe joins the Jeff Marek Show to discuss how good of a fit veteran Sam Gagner has been on the team’s fourth line, and on the 2nd power-play unit, says he’s such a hard worker and such a great person.

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.
