Note: The Jets are in offseason mode but is there really ever an offseason? If there is any news we will have it for you here.

Note II: The Moose are also now in offseason mode. We did almost 20 interviews nine days ago to conclude the Moose season. Lots of good stuff from Jets prospects (see below). We will wrap up the season today at 3 PM with an end of season Moose recap show which will feature head coach Mark Morrison, GM Craig Heisinger and players Tyrel Bauer (first year pro), Declan Chisholm (AHL All-Star) and Dominic Toninato (fresh new 2 year deal). Join us here.

Note IV: The Thunderbirds won game 4 by a final score of 4-2 in Kent, Washington last night. They now have a 3-1 series lead in the WHL Championship over the Ice. They can win it all on Friday night in game 5. The visitors will hope for a win to send it back to Winnipeg for game 6 which would be on Sunday.

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.
