Winnipeg Jets Morning Papers

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 concluded the season last Thursday with an End of Season Roundtable. We’ve also complied all the links to the end of season media availabilities here.

Note III: Jets 2022 1st rounder Brad Lambert (a WHL Champion) and his Seattle Thunderbirds are in Kamloops, BC for the Memorial Cup which gets underway today. He will first be in action tomorrow afternoon when his club will take on Peterborough.

Jets news:

Sportsnet: Let’s Make a Deal: Examining Jets’ potential trade targets from Hurricanes. A good read from Wieber on a potential deal of Connor Hellebuyck or Mark Scheifele to Carolina and who might be coming back the other way.

Winnipeg Free Press: Who has this man’s mask? (Paywall). Mike with an interesting article on Jets WHA netminder Joe Daley and his quest to get his old gear back.

The Athletic: Pronman and Wheeler answer the biggest questions facing NHL teams. (Paywall). Interesting format of this article in that they have the team beat writer ask about the team they cover and then the two draft experts provide their insight. Murat asked about players if the Jets choose to target size/grit. 

NHL.com: Jets at the Worlds – Quarterfinals. Mitch with an update on Samberg and Niederreiter.

Sportsnet: NHL’s Top 12 RFAs of 2023: Latest rumours, reports. I don’t think any of the information has changed when it comes to Pierre-Luc Dubois from the last time they put one of these out. Perhaps the most notable element is that he remains number one on this list.
